The Fleece Inn surpassed all my expectations!

The Fleece Inn surpassed all my expectations! If I could give it 6 stars for comfort I would. A large and spacious room with a really comfy, huge bed, and large bathroom with a separate walk in shower as well as a large bath and heated floor. The food was excellent with a really nice choice and 4 different real ales on draught to choose from. I would definitely stay here again.

Had a really nice stay! The inn and grounds are very picturesque and Staff where nice and friendly, couldnt fault our room, although i must state that the inn is in the middle of nowhere with nothing round and about, no public transport nearby, so if your wanting to go anywhere you will need to drive and everything is a little overpriced.
