We’ll be back!

What a lovely place! The food was excellent, a very good choice of drinks, the room was really comfortable and the location meant we were no more than a 30 minute drive to any other part of the island. What really sets this place apart, however, is the staff; very friendly and helpful, and we felt genuinely looked after during our entire stay. Thank you!

Staff friendliness and helpfulness was outstanding. Meals generous and hot but rather unimaginative. Staircase to bedroom required great care to negotiate safely - would not pass modern safety standards.

The pub was lovely, the staff were all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was superb and beautifully cooked. We also had a meal and a couple of drinks on the evening we arrived, and I can say that it was the best we'd had for a long time. Totally blew away a lot of the mainland pubs. We'll definitely be returning. Excellent A
