This is an excellent hotel/inn. Very convenient for the local wedding venues, especially convenient for Coltsfoot Retreat. The rooms are very comfortable and cosy, they are tastefully decorated and finished to a high standard. The breakfast is excellent, very generous, well prepared and presented, exactly what is needed the morning after the night before.

Booked for bed and breakfast. When I arrived at the property informed that breakfast is not served Mon-Thursday- only served Friday- Sunday then breakfast was not served until 8:30. I am a solo business traveller so 8:30 is too late for breakfast. I asked for a refund but I have not received anything yet

The room was lovely, nice and big and well decorated. Lovely bathroom too. The pub was great, we only had a couple of drinks and breakfast but no complaints. The only small thing is we only had one bath towel in our room, we intended on running downstairs to ask for another one but ran out of time before we head to head out.
