Eviston House Hotel

Eviston House Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location. We arrived early and they held our luggage for us, offered my daughter a space to get some work done in peace and quiet, and were all very friendly. Live music in the pub was a treat, and the only negative was the pub bartender who insisted his misogynistic jokes were appropriate and funny to another woman and myself."
