a lovely , location for a great family get together. Overall the assistance and staff where very professional except at table service, which was a bit short of the necessary standard. perhaps some of the waiting/serving staff could be trained to a more acceptable standard.

Great place to stay
Lovely hotel ( reminds me of old coaching inn) the room I stayed in was a good size, clean and comfortable, and had everything you could need with both a bath and shower, breakfast was delicious with lots of options, and the bar/restaurant welcoming and all the staff I interacted with were knowledgeable and friendly
Even though it was a little further than I wanted to stay I will be back because of the whole experience

Good little room. We stayed during the heatwave and the room was without the AC so it was hot. Lovely bathroom, clean and spacious. Service was nice and helpful but getting a breakfast in the morning took longer that expected. But it was tasty!

Great friendly hotel/bar
Arrived mid evening, parking available. We were able to leave car in car park the next morning to have a quick walk around the town. First room we were showed to was unbelievably hot (it had been a hot day) but found that the towel rail was on in the bathroom, and couldn't be turned off and was like a furnace. Also room was only laid up as a double, no facility for a third bed (we were 3 people).
This was quickly resolved at reception where we were given a family room, which was much better and cooler!
Lovely fluffy towels, hair dryer in the room as well as tea and coffee making facilities.
Didn't eat in the hotel/pub but did have a drink at the bar. Lots of regulars eating and also hotel guests.
Great hotel, very friendly staff.

Great value for money
Great value for money, comfortable room (slightly on the small side), comfy bed and en-suite with bath. Had supper in the on-site pub which was also great value for money
