The lodge is a lovely place to stay, beautiful old buulding with a community feel, staff were wonderful and very friendly, sadly on our second night, while smoking in the back garden another patron, a man came out of the back room and started threatening and abusing us quite vicously, he said he would gut us like fish, we were two women alone and it was terrifying, other than an abusive patron our stay here was very enjoyable would definetly recommend!

Hotel was nice and clean especially for its historical age. Location is also amazing with Main Street diners and restaurants at a few minute walk. Although it was a bit noisy as it is not sound proof and planes frequently flew over the building. Overall its was an amazing experience with a great breakfast, excellent location, and I would recommend.

Bed was very comfortable. Room was clean. Shower was awful and hardly had any pressure. The rooms were not cleaned during the stay. I think patrons that were put out in the back shed were given rooms at a lower standard than in the main building
