Good comfortable stay for one night
Pros:

The food was very good and comfortable room for one night stay.

Cons:

The fact that you have to order your breakfast the night before and with the time you want it as well.

Pros:

Comfortable bed spacious room and tea and coffee. The location was convenient for what I needed.

Cons:

A small dusty fan provided that didn't do much and having to walk up metal stairs which when punters were sitting outside would stare at you as you walked down/up the stairs which made me feel uncomfortable.

A nice little gem, friendly staff and mine was a good room!
Pros:

Breakfast was cooked to order - there was a choice of eggs - fried, scrambled or poached - I was not actually asked! I forgot to mention when I went into breakfast & whilst waiting, I thought they may then ask, the default seems to be fried, I would have preferred poached, minor detail as fried was fine! Plenty of bacon!

Cons:

As this all these establishments, the orange juice is from concentrate - it really is not very nice and pasturised orange juice is significantly better, ok, it costs more, yest they provide nice coffee (which I don't drink), I would happily pay and extra £1 to have decent orange juice!

Ok for a one night stopover
Pros:

The food at the property was very good but you had to wait nearly 50 mins for it to arrive

Cons:

The bed was not comfortable and you rolled into the middle of it. It wasn’t as clean as it could be and the room was very dark and stuffy

Pleasant stay
Pros:

Food was lovely. Staff friendly and helpful. Location was good.

Cons:

Room smelt damp. Had to keep blinds closed as outdoor seating for the pub was right outside our window. Very noisy due to being attached to the pub on ground level. Also the metal staircase to the rooms above was right by our door which was very noisy when people went up and down. Bathroom needed a refresh.

Cons:

Tiny room, couldn't open the wardrobe because of the single bed, which was also practically pressed against the wall on the other side. The desk was tiny and impractical for doing any work - it would fit my lap top but pretty much nothing else. It was more of a cupboard than a room

I wouldn’t go back
Pros:

Staff were friendly Bathroom was clean with small selection of toiletries

Cons:

It looked very unloved with dead plants in the raised beds. The room was badly laid out with only four hangers and a rail situated over the tea making facilities. The bed was very low and pillows lumpy. Breakfast was an extra £10 but not really value for money
