Lovely overnight stay

We had a lovely overnight stay. The staff were very welcoming and informative. The room was clean and spacious with comfortable beds, our wee one especially loved the bunk bed. We booked in for dinner which was absolutely delicious and would highly recommend. The area is beautiful, we will definitely be back!

Staff are very helpful and friendly. The room was good size and clean. The location was very convenient. Free parking in front of the building until 10am in the morning (you have to get a disk from reception and display it). However, the room has very poor sound proofing - I could hear people next door talking and snoring. It’s also above a pub so there was a bit of noise from the street. The fridge in the room was a nice touch but noisy. Overall we didn’t have a good night’s sleep unfortunately…

Enjoyed my stay although it hadn't been particularly clear when booking that due to a recent fire in the kitchen, the venue wasn't currently serving food. Plenty of places nearby to eat but it would have been good to have been forewarned.

Not what it seems…..

The room we were given was not the room booked. The shower was awful, there was no hairdryer, the venue does not have a working kitchen, hence no food available. The toilet leaked and finally the host refused to accept that I had paid before arrival even though I showed him my payment acknowledgment on my banking app. Would not recommend this place.

No food for us!

We arrived at the premises to find the bar & restaurant closed due to a kitchen fire, only informed by notices in the windows, no advance warning. Rooms still open, but had to ring a couple of numbers to get hosts to let us into the property. Main reason for choice was the excellent reviews we'd read about the food! Sadly no food, or drink, during our stay. Breakfast offered was a croissant each left in the fridge with a bottle of orange juice. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. (It was my birthday treat.) However, room lovely & warm, clean & the bed was comfortable. Quiet too, for being on the front of the property. Had our own keys to come & go, & parking right outside, with a parking disc. The host informed us the kitchen will be closed for months to come.
