Couples New years eve stay
Pros:

My husband and I spent new years eve here with our labrador, we were met with amazing hospitality from the moment we arrived and everything was absolutely faultless.
Warm friendly attentive staff, brilliant customer service, delicious food with generous portions, great selection of drinks, ambient atmosphere, spacious immaculately clean room with very comfortable extra large king size bed, the list really is endless.
This is the most dog friendly stay i've experienced and the attention to detail is fanastic. We had access to the secure beer garden to safely let our dog off lead even though it was closed for the winter months, a basket of dog towels is provided at the back door to clean paws and we were given an extra plate of sausage for our dog when we went down for breakfast.
We felt this was great value for money and have already booked our next stay.
