Very nice, welcoming place to say.
Pros:

I liked that my cat was welcome, and that the room was cosy and the location was quite secluded. The price was very reasonable too.

Lovely hotel/pub. Will definitely be back.
Pros:

The room was a good size. The bathroom was clean and again a good size. The radiator was large and heated the room up quickly.

Cons:

I missed not having any drawers as we were there for 4 nights. If only one or two nights it wouldn't have been a problem.
