A warm welcome
Pros:

A warm welcome as soon as we arrived on a very wet and windy evening. The room was huge and very comfortable with views over the mountains. Breakfast was really good and freshly prepared and evening meals were good too. Good selection of meals all round. On arrival, we were presented with a welcome pack for our dog with treats and a ball included, which was a lovely touch. Excellent value all round. Have booked to return.

Cons:

Nothing

Cosy weekend break
Pros:

Lovely stay at the Saracens Hotel, staff were friendly and helpful, food was excellent, would highly recommend a stay here, the Managers were very helpful, even opening the breakfast room on Saturday night as the pub was busy and there was no where for us to have our evening meal. Will definitely return.

Cons:

Bed was a bit firm for my liking but that's not really an issue.
