We won't be returning, sadly.
Cons:

We can't review the facilities because the pub was closed the entire time we were there. So no food or drink available. Which totally negates the reason for staying in a pub. Which meant we had to get taxis to go out in the evenings.
The location was in the middle of nowhere, yet right on a busy road, so we were awake from 5am because of the noise.
The room itself was fine, but access is via a dilapidated wooden staircase and deck, totally exposed to the weather, so wet and potentially slippery.
