On entering the property it was noisy not what I was expecting very laid back approach room was right above the noisy pubs bar so no way of having an early sleep due to said noise (after a 6hr drive ) food was mediocre at best and a set menu on the wall the exterior lighting for the pub shines straight into the room and lights it up like a football match so again no chance of an early sleep breakfast was set at a small half hearted English breakfast not other options available would I stay again definitely a NO there for over £100 I’ve stayed In considerably better and in better areas this was more of a £50 room and very disappointed

We received a warm welcome from the licensee, who showed us to our room. The room was very spacious and the accommodation met our expectations. Would certainly stay there again if in that area.

Don’t stay at this place. Photos make it look good. In ‘Elderberry room’ paper on ceiling hanging off. ‘Primrose room’ mattress was very thin (it looked ancient) and the fitted sheet didn’t come more than 2 inches down the side. Whole place needs a freshen up. The one which according to reviews was going to happen in 2020. Found alternate accommodation and young girl said we wouldn’t be charged as we didn’t stay but there would be a charge of £60. Thus wasn’t true. Phoned several times to speak to landlords but was never available. They took money even though they didn’t have to service either room!!
