    Charming hotel with the loveliest staff.

    We came here on a last minute reservation due to our flight cancelation. The staff were the loveliest people ever. The hotel was very comforting and cozy with such good ambience. The rooms were spacious and clean and we had an amazing breakfast.

    There where no hairdryers on the room.

    Nice accommodation situated in pub. Lovely views.

    Nice room and clean. Lovely view from bedroom. Good pub and staff really helpful. Lovely breakfast. Quite remote but very handy for the wedding we were attending.

    If you need to get a taxi to a venue, book way ahead as we did have a little trouble finding a company able to pick us up from our venue in the evening.

    Super lovely staff, very thoughtful. Great breakfast & dinner

    Really cute, lovely view and location

    Was keen on awkward tea facilities in cupboard and my shower didn’t drain so the shower tray kept filling with water
