Good stay and great breakfast- good location from the town . Only downside was parking as long way from car park with bags and never a space at pub as staff seemed to be parked there all day and evening

Rat trap vs Mouse trap

Because of rain we wanted to drop off our luggage. No one around. We stopped a person walking by and he went into kitchen to get us help. We left luggage but felt uneasy. It was in an hallway near dirty kitchen. Checking into our room we felt we were imposing on the staff. Very short and impatient. Same Later eating dinner. Again we felt like we were bothering the staff. The meal was good but not worth the grief nor the hassle. The exterior needs a LOT of cleaning and attention. Overall we would not recommend Customer service ruined our stay

Really nice B&B, comfortable and clean.

We had a very comfortable stay in the delightful room at the Mousetrap Inn, the size and decor of the rooms made up for the limited parking. We booked three rooms and my father has limited mobility, as all the rooms are on top floor there was no accessible room, so they gave him the one closest to the stairs. There was a noisy fan on all night which caused disrupted sleep. It either needs maintenance or switching off at night. Other than this it was a very pleasant stay with a lovely breakfast.

The US motel style rooms out the back of the property didn't really make you feel like you were getting value for money, a bit cheap if I'm honest. Plus close proximity to the kitchen meant you heard the culinary machine working early morning and later at night. This may not be an issue if you're staying upstairs in the main building. The pub/restauarant, food and staff were truly excellent.

Tourist hell hole

Sadly there was no parking available with this hotel. The area is so touristy there in nowhere to park, absolute hell hole. Coaches and coach parties everywhere, you cant walk along the paths without bumping into people. everything is overpriced as its a tourist trap! The only parking options if you cant walk far are on yellow lines! We had to stay at another hotel in the end as with a blue badge i cant walk miles so the stay was impossible.

Lovely homely friendly place. They kindly let us check in early as we needed to change for a funeral. So I am not sure if normally shower gel is provided, there was soap which I used. Note to self 'pack some' Beautiful room very clean & comfy

Quaint and delightful.

The Mouse Trap Inn is very quaint and we had an enjoyable 1night stay here. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious. The rooms are small but in keeping with the nature of the town and age of the building. We recommend this as a delightful place to stay.
