Lovely change, will comw back. 1 change only
Beautiful setting, usually stay in other hotels in the area but will definitely add this to my hotel rotation I had to leave for work at 6am and as the pub was all closed and no key drop box it was difficult to find a place to hide the room key before i left. I think the only thing id change is being mindful about people staying there for business

Lovely comfortable room and unique in appearance. We found the room to be very quiet at night time during our weekend stay. The food in the restaurant was very good and seemed popular with the locals as well. Make sure you book a table for dinner if you are staying. Great staff, great service!

We had a very comfortable stay here, my only gripe is the addition of 10% to my bills for "service". That is what you expect to be covered by the quoted price.

Stunning rooms decorated to a high quality, comfortable and the biggest bonus of air con! Fantastic layout with everything you could need! Pub inside is clean and spacious, food is delicious. Outside space and beer garden well kept and large. We will definitely be staying again. It’s a perfect little trip away.
