Beautiful little hotel in the middle of town. Easy walking to local shops. Rustic, but in a great way. Feels like what a family owned hotel should feel like, and super easy check In/Out.

Stayed for a long weekend with my little daughter as a treat and will definitely be back! Staff were ever so helpful andwent out of their way. The room and food were lovely. Parking in the central car park is just down the road, very convenient.

Great room and lovely staff. We managed to get a space in the carpark so the car was safe. We ate in the pub and the food was good, easy food. If you are a light sleeper, maybe ask for a room away from the church as the bells ring every 15 minutes. Although I am told sometimes they stop at 11pm, but you can’t guarantee.

Lovely staff. Great tea/coffee tray and water /biscuits every day. Fresh milk in flask a great touch. Food was average for pub grub . Room was tired, needed a paint. Dusty wardrobe. Mattress needed replacing -could feel the springs. No pillow protectors. Shower cubicle was full of mildew , trap was dirty inside. They did put 2 pillow cases on and clean trap when I asked. Very small bathroom, a large person would struggle!

This might have been one of my favorite hotel stays in a long time. The hotel was beautiful, the room was wonderful with a fantastic large bathroom. The staff were all friendly and the food was delicious. The town was small and cute to walk in. I would come back and stay again.

Superb hotel and outstanding customer service from the team. Stayed here for one night and requested an early breakfast the next morning as we were up early for a walk. The front of desk and kitchen team were very helpful with this. The room was beautiful and the evening meal we had the night of our stay was delicious. 10/10 would recommend.
