Good place to stay but needs a clean

The check-in was great on arrival with plenty of info from Courtney. The food in the pub was also good with no complaints. The room I stayed in needs a good deep clean both in the bedroom and bathroom. You could also hear every noise from people walking past your room with the floors creaking and doors shutting which made for a terrible nights sleep.

Only stayed one night and had a comfortable clean bed. The room was pokey, poorly decorated and bathroom was shabby. If you opened the windows cooking smells came in from the kitchen.
