Clean friendly hotel.
Pros:

Nice clean room. Friendly staff and free parking available.

Cons:

Only thing which could have been improved upon was the temperature in our room. It was very hot and there wasn’t a window which opened making it rather uncomfortable.

Last minute booking but was a great hotel I would definitely recommend the staff were all so nice.
Pros:

All the staff were very friendly and accommodating, lovely breakfast , clean spacious room and very quiet. I would definitely recommend and stay again.

Cons:

Was disappointed they didn’t serve food every evening as no where else in village to get food. No shower in the room we had just a very small bath, a shower over the bath would be a great improvement to that particular room.

Pros:

Property was lovely and clean. Greeted on arrival by the lovely staff, all checked in and escorted me and my partner to the room. We were staying for a wedding not far from the property and our uber kept getting cancelled, so the lovely staff said we’ll drop you off. Very nice of them. Thank you so much for having us.
