Only one night there, but pleasant and clean rooms, quiet setting, lovely hot shower, delicious dinner in the restaurant and absolutely no fuss booking in and leaving. Plenty of grounds for an after dinner stroll under a full moon.

Reception staff (Owner) friendly and helpful. website says breakfast available, it was not. No in-house dining at all. Beds weren't made although requested just towels changed. A little too pricey for what was on offer - noisy mini friedge which woke us up very early. Bathroom extractor extremely noisy. Place looks dated and in need of an overall upgrade.

Homely and comfortable but needs a good clean

Stayed here a couple of times, and for a cheap and cheerful country motel it's fairly comfortable for the price. Rooms are nothing flash but everything I needed was there so happy at this price point. The manager is a funny character and the meals on site were homely. If I'm honest I expect some city guests would probably say it's behind the times, the meals typical of 1980's pubs and everything generally a bit slow. But I think they know their clientele (a lot of workers it seems) and I expect they're happy with it. For my part I didn't mind, enjoyed a bit of country hospitality for a while. One thing I really have to mention however was, even at this budget price, the cleanliness of the room was really below standard. There are surfaces caked in dust, and the bathroom riddled with mould. It just really needs a thorough once-over and then try to maintain that. One last thing, there were a lot of workers outside my door having beers and smoking, and the smoke filled my room. I don't mind these blokes probably want a beer at the end of the day, but it'd be better if they had somewhere that doesn't affect other guests' enjoyment.
