Very pleased with the accomodation and food.....would definitely stay there again.
Pros:

The accomodation was perfect to use as an overnight base. We took our dog who was welcome in the pub, and i liked having our own small garden area. Property was clean and had everything we needed. Breakfast was included in the price which we couldn't fault. We ate in the pub on both nights - food was excellent and portion size generous.

Cons:

Nothing

Lovely warm welcome. Staff couldn't do enough. Beautiful magical location, perfect for walkers.
Pros:

Hot breakfast choices were good but the cold buffet could have more choices with maybe fresh pastries.We had three meals in the restaurant, all were excellent, good quality freshly cooked food. Excellent pizza. Wonderful magical location.

Cons:

Breakfast choice of cold buffet. The terrace chairs could do with a sanding and painting to remove rust.
