"Fantastic location, right by the river. Very nice pub with range of food & a good bar…staff all very nice & helpful…Nice to sit out on an evening. Accommodation was ok…the room was large with a comfy double bed but the kids/pullout bed was a bit old and there was no light by it. Bathroom was a good size but needs updating as fixtures were loose and decor tired…it could be an amazing place to stay, but needs some money spending on it. The location and nice staff made it a good stop over…& the outdoor space was lovely."
