The parking is not allocated to rooms. Just park where you can find a spot. Hand basin had not been cleaned properly. No bench or towel rails in bathroom. Most expensive motel in our 3 weeks of travel. The bedroom was the best, well appointed.

A good place to stay overnight. The room was large and clean with a comfortable bed, pretty much all that was required. Parking available outside the door. The pub nearby was a good option for eating.
