This property gave us everything we wanted from our stay - a safe, cozy, welcoming place with extremely friendly staff,
Pros:

Everything from the friendly and helpful staff to the breakfast options to the thoughtfully decorated rooms in this charming old house were amazing. The room was bigger and lighter than we had anticipated, the renovated bathroom was lovely. The property was quiet (it has a lovely pub downstairs but we never heard it in our room on the top floor) and felt incredibly safe, welcoming and like a real home away from home. We would love to come back one day!

Cons:

The AC unit was a little loud, and we had booked a twin room and found each bed to be very small. Having to find parking around town each day was also not ideal. These things did not make our stay any less excellent though!

Do yourself a favour and stay at this pub, you wont regret it.
Pros:

A superb place to stay. The staff were all very friendly throughout the stay and very efficient at what they did. The pub is very cozy and well decorated. a good selection of beverages in the bar. The evening meal menu was refreshingly different to the standard fare at pub hotels. This one had the popular meals available but also a selection of different ones from the norm. Mine was very nice, well cooked and a good portion size. The room was outstanding and really comfortable maintaining some of the old charm but with well maintained feel to it. Slept very well even though I was in a room at the front of the hotel. Not disturbed by any road noise at all.
Then it came to breakfast time, that was real treat when it came out. So well cooked and when I asked for my eggs in a slightly amended way they came out exactly as I asked. There is a pay and display car park next door which is good value for money for an overnight stay or 24 hours.
If I really thought hard I wouldn't be able to find fault with it. I would return to the area just for another stay here, and I will do next year.

Cons:

Nothing, dont change a thing.
