Staff friendly and helpful, bar area clean and tidy. Rooms where tired and need of renovation, with that said I suppose the price reflected that ??? Would stay again for convenience though.

The staff were friendly and welcoming. However the building and rooms have seen better days making it hard to keep super clean. It was good for one night and served its purpose especially being dog friendly in all areas. The food in the restaurant was very nice if for me too small a portion of ravioli. Breakfast was also great.

Lovely one night stay
Charming hotel. Upgraded from a single to double room. I stayed un the older part of the hotel. Unfortunately I can't seem to upload a photo. Very comfortable. Able to open the window for fresh country air all night. Ample parking. Great restaurant and bar. Staff (front of house) and restaurant were welcoming and friendly.

This is an exceptionally good hotel, all the usual facilties, good free wifi, comfortable bed, good shower, excellent dining room and breakfasts with good choice of breakfast. Good restaurant within the hotel with reasonably priced meals. Staff very helpfull. The only downside was no mirror in the bathroom so had to use own small mirror to shave by.
