Had a lovely weekend stay here in November, the place is charming and has a lot of character. The room was large, clean , well furnished and there was everything you needed , I also loved the view and that you could look out and see the thatched roof . Check in was easy , all the staff we met over the weekend were very welcoming , friendly and helpful so it made you feel very relaxed. New management had just taken over when we stayed , I was really happy with stay here and would recommend it.

The food was very limited, all frozen rubbish. Expedia advertised breakfast, no breakfast included. The rooms were dirty. Ours was obviously over the kitchen as it smelt of dirty cooking fat. You could hear the people talking in the next bedroom. The bed was really small and you rolled into the middle.

Room was clean however booked 2 rooms and had one towel between 4. Had to request more towels. Breakfast was very poor. Basically a bit a fruit, some small boxes of cereal and bread that was mouldy. Really badly presented. A little bit more attention to detail and fix fundermental issues and it could be decent accomodation. But really dissapointed and would not stay again
