Highly recommend, rooms immaculate, staff friendly both evening and morning all very helpful.
Pros:

Breakfast was very good, freshly cooked and great presentation and the staff were lovely.

Cons:

Unfortunately they didn't do food on a Monday or Tuesday pm and menu looks good. But there was a pop up van outside to cater for the evening meal which was good.

Fantastic day all the rooms are very well done. attention to detail is above and beyond

Good value comfortable stay
Pros:

Staff were so friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. We also had dinner in the pub which was reasonably priced, tasty and had great service despite being rather busy - the team clearly work very hard and it shows in the quality of their establishment.

Cons:

As the weather had been particularly hot that day the room was a bit stuffy but being on the ground floor we didn't want to open the window that faced onto the road. No bothersome noise from the road but due to the age of the building creaky floorboards upstairs from other visitors woke me up a few times as a light sleeper. - these are very nitpicky things and for just one night wasn't the end of the world, so many more benefits to the stay than these minor complaints!
