Very friendly staff, hotel full of character, back entrance to car park very convenient
Cons:

Key to bathroom across the hall was difficult to use, we were afraid of it not working at all and getting locked in. Doors squeaky so loud during the night.

We could have done with a lift as we are 90 and 83 and our room was at the top of the pub.
Pros:

Breakfast wasn’t provided

Cons:

The bedroom needs some attention. Dirty carpet. A few little plastering jobs and new lock on the door.

Lovely stay
Pros:

We stayed for 3 nights and the hotel was comfortable and clean. Staff were all absolutely lovely and very helpful. Restaurant and bar also very good and would recommend.

Cons:

Only suggestion would be to have more plugs in the room. There was 2 of us in a twin room and we struggled to charge mobiles as only one plug between us. Other than that, no issues whatsoever.

Pros:

Needed a place to crash for the night - I booked 20 minutes before arriving, yet the front desk staff made it happen, which is great considering this is a part small-town small hotel, part pub, part restaurant.
