Pleasant place ti stay
Pros:

Great location , friendly staff , nice food at the pub and great value

Cons:

The double room was above the restaurant and the door to the kitchen didn't have a slow close, so was always banging when they were serving dinner or breakfast

Welcoming, friendly, helpful, comfortable.
Pros:

Welcoming. Home From home feel. Lovely little family room. Staff were so welcoming and helpful, we felt very looked after. Loved the live music and shanty night.

Cons:

The front door a little noisy on busier evenings - more our problem as we were in bed early!

Lovely stay.
Pros:

My room was upgraded soon after my arrival, on their suggestion. I was moved to a large family room with a lovely view. The bed was huge and very comfortable, with very nice linen. Everything was exceptionally clean and with lots of hot water.for a bath. Breakfast was ordered the night before and my full English breakfast was lovely. Particularly outstanding was the friendliness of all the staff and the helpfulness and kindness that they showed at all times. The shanty music in the bar on the evening I stayed was great fun and perfect for a single traveller. Extra tea and coffee was available, if needed, on an upstairs landing area.

Cons:

I would have quite liked a small packet of biscuits on the tea tray, but that is a very minor wish list!

Amazing stay!
Pros:

Everything. Every single member of staff was absolutely lovely. Helpful and very kind. The room was perfect for our needs, the big bed was amazingly comfortable. We all slept very well. Breakfast was great. Location was fantastic for everything we had planned. Very nice place. Would 100% stay again. Amazing value for money. Thank you.

Cons:

The only thing I didn't like was the damaged seal around the bath and shower, as it made me nervous to use things, incase the water got down the sides and damaged the building. A bit of maintenance to the bathroom, would be ideal.
