OK for a one night drop in

One night only walking the Angles Way. Easy book in. The room was a little “tired” given the price charged but the evening meal and breakfast where excellent.

Decent place

Decent place, rooms quite dated. Had a few problems with faulty electrics and heating, but staff did a great job sorting them out. Nice and quiet room. Good pub too. Overall, not bad.
