The room felt safe overall, but there were a few issues. The window couldn’t open, making it a bit hot, and the curtains didn’t block any light—expect to wake up early with the sun. Noise from the busy pub below lasted until around 10pm. The lower bed had very little headroom, even when just sitting up.

Could have been better

Bedside light didn't work because their was no wall socket to plug it in on one side of the bed. The other side was fine. The shower was noisy and the water would go from very cold to too hot and back again. The shower room was a bit shabby .The breakfast was not much for the price. I also had to tune the TV in to watch BBC. The bed was comfortable but to low . The Good News, What staff we did see where a credit and very pleasant.

Disappointing Stay

We spent two nights at this hotel and unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations—especially considering how expensive it was. The entire place felt outdated and in need of renovation, and even basic amenities were missing (there wasn’t even a hairdryer in the room). The worst part was the bathroom. The water pressure was so bad that water wasn’t even flowing—it was just dripping from the shower head, making it nearly impossible to shower. One morning, the pressure improved for about two minutes, but there was no hot or even warm water at all. For the price we paid, we expected at least the basics to be working. Sadly, this wasn’t the case.

The mattress and pillows were horrible, super thin spring mattress with thin pillows. The shower looked like it had black mold in the cracks. The staff were very nice, but I wouldn't come back because of the quality.

Have no expectations when booking this hotel…

No hot water , had a cold shower, after hiking all day, even after reporting it 3 times. They could not swap the room as the water in there was also cold. Poor cleaning, poor breakfast choices and services. Worktop in the bar area was sticky. Nice location.

We were running late and I called and told them that we were going to be later than expected and the girl was so nice she told us that it was okay they were going to wait for us, we finally got there after 11pm and they were there waiting for us, she said they were concerned because of the road and it was raining and misty, they were so nice and friendly and the gentleman helped bringing our luggage upstairs. I give them 10/10.

Checked in and was greeted by friendly staff. Room was in much need of a refurbishment. Everything was quite run down. No hot water so had a cold shower, luckily it was the hottest day of the year. The window wouldn’t shut and the curtain let in all the light so prepare to be awake from 430am in the summer. Room aside it’s a lovely community pub, we stayed for food which was really nice and had beers in the sun in the beer garden. All staff friendly and check out easy. Overall - would recommend if rooms had a bit of an upgrade!
