Very nice accommodation with a country pub vibe.
Pros:

We've stayed here before and liked it hence the return visit. A very comfortable bed, spotlessly clean, everything neat and tidy. A spacious room and nice shower. We didn't get to eat in the restaurant this time but have enjoyed that in the past.

Cons:

The hotel is on the main road and there is quite a bit of traffic although this didn't feel noticeable in the room and it didn't bother us at all.
