    Nice cozy pub. Good location, friendly staff, nicely decorated room, good food and drink.

    Parking is on the street. We had room 7 in the attic. If you are taller than 5 feet, you will get to intimately make friends with the low beams 🤪.

    A nice stay but would not return as food was below par

    Beautiful property. Plenty of parking on the road outside. Lovely autumn decor. Room was lovely. Tea and coffee. Nice shower with big fluffy towels and plenty of hot water.

    Food was not great. To be fair they did refund our uneaten meals. Traffic noise from room 1 was loud until late and started again early.

    Great place to stay whilst en route to Scotland. The pub served good food and the staff were friendly and polite. Would

    We were travelling with our dog and the staff were very helpful in placing us in a room with access to the garden. The room had everything we needed. We had a lovely evening meal at the pub and the portions were sizeable and the breakfast was very good.
