Great stay
Pros:

Staff were lovely, room was comfortable, cute stable door, close to play equipment for kids

Cons:

That’s a hard one.. the constant high pitch machine from 7-10pm (roughly) to keep the bats away prevented going to sleep peacefully. Earbuds helped. Might need to consider other bat options. Would be fine if you don’t sleep until late or you have tinnitus.

Unfortunately the condo
Pros:

Fabulous location and excellent food.

Nicely appointed and decorated rooms create a good vibe

Cons:

Our bed was probably the most uncomfortable bed that we have ever slept on.

It was like a trampoline and neither of us hardly got any sleep and both got up with sore backs, shoulder etc.

Great location and very dog friendly. Highly recommend.
Pros:

Great spot by the river, especially travelling with a small dog. Property offers take away meals so you can enjoy in your room after a day's travelling.

Cons:

Bed linen was great but bed too soft - this is a personal choice I know.

Pros:

Great pub and food. Huge room and spotlessly clean. One of the most comfortable beds I've slept in.

Cons:

Stayed on a night that was not busy. Can imagine the room could be quite noisy on a big night in the beer garden during the holidays. Parking in house is very limited. Bathroom is functional but tight on space.

A very pleasant stay and would stay there again
Pros:

The room was spotless and recently decorated so very pleased with it. The Staff were more than helpful and managed to get us an early check-in as we were going to a Funeral

Cons:

We paid a bit extra to get a toaster but there wasn't one in the room. We should have gone to Reception to ask for one but we ran out of time
