Checked in very late but that wasnt a problem, made a request for ground floor due to wifes mobility and that was accommodated without issue, room was comfortable, however room was quite warm and fan provided was not suitable could not feel any benefit, shower was a bit temperamental but not an issue, breakfast was fantastic and staff were very atrentive and efficient, shame our stay was so short as would have liked to enjoy the surrounding area as looked very quaint and beautiful, overall very good stay and good value for money, hope to stay again soon.

A lovely heritage property in a central village location. The rooms are well equipped and everything was in working order. Food service from a varied menu is available until 2100 helpful😄. The breakfast was equally of good quality.

Lovely place
I only booked for one night, and the website said that the room was ideal for a solo traveller. However, there was ample room for two, and I was completely spoilt with a patio, too. There was also plenty of choice for breakfast, and I was amazed at how early they served it, too. The only downside was the squeaky headboard, which I had to quieten with the bath mat. I forgot to bring it to the staffs attention. I would definitely stay again.

All the staff were polite and friendly, even though they were so busy with all 40 rooms booked with a wedding party. The room was small but very clean. The lasagne I had was extremely good. My husband had the crab, which he said was tasty but (as a fisherman) the smallest size of crab that could be landed. The only slightly awkward thing was lack of signage to know how to check in, which, it seems, was to be done at the bar.
