Room was functional and clean. The bathroom was a little tired. There were biscuits with a good selection of teas and coffee. Ample parking. Breakfast was average. The staff were all very friendly. The room was a little overpriced for the standard.

The location was ideal for our travel plans and was a rural, quiet spot. The room was so inviting with dual aspect views and good lighting. There was plenty of parking and the staff were extremely polite and welcoming.

All staff were very friendly and helpful and dogs were welcome everywhere Evening meal was lovely and breakfast was lovely too with lots of choice. Ear plugs were provided on the bedside tables, in retrospect we should have worn them as talking from people sat in the outside area was just beneath our window and was very loud (had the window open), this was followed by a car doing wheel spins on the road outside as its driver left. The road was very noisy, probably a lot more noticeable due to hot weather and having the window open. The room was clean and the walls well decorated, but the ceiling, interior of the “wardrobe” and shower room definitely required improvement along with the carpet in the corridor which 2 of us tripped on due to large ruckles. The staff definitely compensated for the decor and meant we still enjoyed our stay
