Excellent location
Pros:

Really great bedrooms, location was very good for us and the pub sold lovely food and excellent, friendly staff.

Cons:

Shower room was a bit below par, nice decor but the mould on the sealant in the shower let it down... easily fixed though and everything else was perfect. Although more coffee sachets please.

Great Location on A1
Pros:

Great location - Great staff - Nice room.

Cons:

The Pub is downstairs …so a little noisy up to closing time.
Their AI phone answering system when calling for arrival advice is unusable. Wait for pub opening hours to speak to a real person !

Pros:

The staff were friendly and the food was 1st class and great value for money.
The room was clean and well presented.

Cons:

Our bathroom could have done with some maintainence around the plinth of the shower and the ceiling above the shower was stained. We decided not to use it. The mattress although very very hard was good for us but others might find it like sleeping on a concrete slab
