Perfect stay and we would recommend staying or eating there or both if possible.
Pros:

Excellent food and exceptional value for money. Wonderful Mountain View’s from room and perfect nights sleep because it was such a quiet room. Staff very friendly.

Cons:

Not a dislike but bedroom and bathroom could do with upgrading. However understand this is on the radar to be done.

Great stay!
Pros:

This was our 3rd stay at the Groes Inn, and it didn’t disappoint. The rooms are comfortable and warm although the bathroom maybe could be updated to walk in showers instead of baths, but that is just my preference.
The staff are a credit to the place, friendly and helpful. The food we had was delicious, particularly the Sunday lunch! Loads of parking and EV chargers too! Can’t wait for our next visit!
