A charming pub B&B with real character. The room was cozy and spotless, and the warm welcome from the staff made us feel instantly at home. Great food, excellent atmosphere, and a wonderfully relaxing stay. Plenty of parking and dog friendly too (make sure you book a standard double room which are let friendly) Highly recommended!
