Categories

Cleanliness
8.5
Generally reported as clean and comfortable, though one reviewer noted moths in a room and some bathrooms appeared to be retrofitted which some guests commented on.
Service
10
Consistently praised across many reviews — staff described as very friendly, helpful, welcoming and informative; multiple guests credited staff as a key reason for an enjoyable stay.
Location
10
Frequently highlighted as a major positive: stunning countryside, excellent/perfect location and convenient for nearby towns and meetups.
Room Quality
7.5
Mixed reports: several guests had lovely, comfortable rooms and beds, but others reported very small bedrooms (Room 7, No. 6), unconventional layouts (shower in the bedroom), lack of privacy and limited in-room facilities.
Amenities
8
Basic amenities generally available (parking, restaurant), but some issues noted: limited/changed breakfast offering vs booking, no shelter for bicycles, awkward tea/coffee setup, and a tedious online TV/room-service process for some guests.
Value for Money
8
Most guests felt the experience was good value given the setting and service, but several mentions of being 'a bit pricey' and paying extra for cooked breakfast lowered this score slightly.
Food and Beverage
9.2
Food receives strong positive feedback — evening meals and dinner described as delicious and service fast; a few guests considered prices on the higher side.
Overall Experience
9.2
Overall very positive — many 'fantastic/super' stay comments and repeat praise for staff and setting, offset by a minority of guests who experienced cramped rooms, noisy nights or amenity inconsistencies.

Sad to say that this was the worst room we’ve ever stayed in.
Pros:

Property looked attractive from the outside. Nice location in pretty village.
Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

Room was cramped, far too small for 2 people. Shower smelt damp as though drains were blocked. Extractor fan was on all night and no way to turn it off.Toilet was so cramped you had to sit sideways.
Breakfast was chaotic, no bowls on the table, no brown bread left, no spoons- it was as though staff were shocked that people were actually staying and had turned up for breakfast!

Nice room shame about the fish
Pros:

Nice venue but AC noisy

Cons:

Cooking could be improved. Soup nice sourdough stale.they said it was the kitchen heat but it was stale. I have just eaten same from another restaurant. It wasn't stale. Fish was over cooked and mush. Again they say it was cooked to 79 degrees or so. For sole that is probably 15 degrees too much hence mush.

Maybe other dishes would have been good but be warned.

Agradable y buena relacion calidad-precio
Pros:

La ubicacion

Cons:

Tuvimos una noche en la que no pudimos cenar porque el restaurante estaba fully booked. Eso fue incomodo porque pensabamos que los que se hospedaban tenian algo de prioridad

Pros:

Ein uriges Pub mit einer schönen Terrasse und freundlichem Personal. Der Ort ist zwar klein, aber sehr hübsch, um dort einen Zwischenstopp einzulegen. Dusche und WC wurden offensichtlich nachträglich ins Zimmer eingebaut, was zweckmäßig ist und dazu noch sehr originell aussieht. Sehr zu empfehlen.

We were glad it was just one night , it was a challenge.
Pros:

Beautiful building in a stunning location. Staff very nice.

Cons:

Room 7 is really not suitable for 2 people. It is extremely small, with the shower in the actual bedroom (no en-suite type set up).
The sink with a small mirror above is next to the shower cubicle in the bedroom. This cuts the space in the bedroom down by quite a bit.
The toilet is next to the sink,in what only can be described as a cupboard. Absolutely no privacy (toilet situation)or room to move around. No full length mirror, and a tea/coffee station that to use,you have to lean over a bedside table,to be able to reach ,which is not ideal.
The room would be fine for a single guest.
