Have stayed here before, it is convenient for us as our son lives in the village the room we stayed was small.The price we paid for the room which was cheaper than the last time, we thought was right for the room. First time we have tried breakfast here it was excellent, could not fault it.The lady who served us was very pleasant. Still think the rooms could do with brightening up.

Stayed two nights at this property, it’s very tired needs a total refit. The staff that I met are excellent helpful and very kind. The bed was fresh and clean, the bathroom was clean and the shower excellent. For what we wanted a bed for two nights and a bathroom was perfect. We’re very un entitled for someone else this might not work. There was a hairdryer fan iron and tea and coffee facilities fresh towels. I didn’t use the restaurant for either breakfast or dinner so can’t comment. We went for a family occasion and for somewhere to sleep it was ok.
