Bad experience
Pros:

Bath and comfortable bed, but not the peeling wallpaper and dated bathroom.

Cons:

Bad experience at restaurant. Ordered meal at 6.20pm before the only 2 other tables, one with 3 and a table for one. At 7.20 the other tables were served and I asked where was ours and the waitress said ours took longer because our food took the longest to cook...we had ordered chicken skewers and pan fried fish an hour before. I said we were going and she said OK I will cancel your order so it hadn't even been started !!
I informed the manager who said they had been very busy 🤷‍♀️ and did not even offer an apology, worst experience ever and we never leave bad reviews

Booked because of restaurant, only to find out it wasn't open, do beware to check opening days of restaurant if choosing this place so you can dine onsite.

Good location, easy walk into town
Nice clean quiet rooms, recommend the spa bath, so relaxing, with loads of hot water, plenty of pressure

Beds very comfortable

Cons:

The restaurant was not open. While this makes sense due to the slow season it would have been good to know beforehand a
