Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located in a beautiful part of the country, with a fantastic restaurant nearby and a lovely field next door. The rooms offer a comfortable stay with crisp clean linen, but the shower can be temperamental at times. The service is attentive, providing wine and sandwiches on request, along with welcoming pet amenities. The dining experience includes some nice touches, but be prepared for cold meats. Overall, a great value for money with some shortcomings in the shower reliability and dinner options.
The hotel is nestled in a beautiful part of the country, although sadly down the hill and slightly isolated from the main pub. The rooms offer a direct view onto the garden, with clean and crisp linens on a standard double bed, albeit the shower being a bit temperamental. The service was exceptional, with staff being very attentive and even going the extra mile to bring wine and sandwiches upon request. The location provides a serene atmosphere, away from the hustle and bustle, but it could be considered a downside to be downhill from certain attractions. Dining experiences were enhanced with some nice touches and fresh pastries, adding to the overall pleasant stay. The facilities were well-kept, providing a comfortable and inviting ambiance overall.
