Nice little place to stay
Pros:

Very Clean and Comfy. Cooked Breakfast was excellent, it's amazing how so many places don't know how to poach an egg properly, here they do!!

Cons:

I checked in just before 8 at night to be told the kitchen was closed. Fair enough it was something I hadnt checked but after driving for nearly 4 hours I needed something. Fortunately there is a decent Indian Takeaway that delivers to the pub as recommended by the guy behind the bar which was really good.
