Pros:

Excellent welcome, lovely room and great service throughout.

Cons:

Breakfast was a little expensive but probably good value if you had the full amount. An option of a simple breakfast with just tea and toast for £5 each would have been good.

Served my needs apart from the t v issue
Pros:

It was comfortable and cosy

Cons:

The rooms don’t have t.v’s. You can ask for one but they only have 3 to lend to guests and 2 didn’t work. They have Robert’s radios instead which seems very odd.

Extremely cared for, valued and loved
Pros:

Everything from pre arrival phone call, to help confirm meal options, booking a table and supporting me with an evening roast when getting to the hotel for 8pm. Walking into a friendly hotel, clean rooms, exceptional roast dinner after 5 hours travel was incredible. Breakfast was lovely and the staff are great. 3rd time been here and would travel again and again

Cons:

No complaints

Staff and food are excellent
Pros:

Good location for what we wanted close to Launceston. Property has old world characteristics being an old coaching inn, and upgraded in keeping with that in mind.

Cons:

Heating could be better but lovely open fire in the lounge if you’re lucky enough to be close to it. Room heating is adequate.
