Friendly and great value

Lovely pub. The room was in an outbuilding behind it - simple but clean and nicely decorated. Friendly welcome and great service. Mattress wasn't the most comfortable, but all in all a lovely place to stay at a very good price - I would definitely stay again.

Room 3

The beds are not the most comfortable, the shower drain is blocking up and won’t be long before it overflows but the premises serves my purposes.
