Great country pub accommodation
Pros:

Shared bathrooms are the best I've come across in country pub accommodation. Toilets, basins, and showers are very clean, tastefully designed, and fantastic to use.

Pros:

Have stayed there before. It's a great hotel.

Cons:

We were woken up by trades working outside our room before 8am. We had been travelling a long distance and needed to sleep and had organised a late check out. We left tired as a result which is problematic when travelling on a motorcycle.
I also had to walk under a ladder over a drop sheet to access the bathroom facilities.

Convenient location
Pros:

Location was great.
Shared bathroom was modern and clean.

Cons:

Pillows and towels were terrible; thin and old. The bed was under long window curtains that hit your head when in bed. The TV was so high on the wall you couldn’t sit in a chair and watch it; you had to lie flat. Heater barely enough to keep warm.
