Spacious clean room with fresh air and natural light. I had a quiet and comfortable stay. They cooked fresh breakfast everyday with table service. As a vegetarian they catered to my dietary preferences. The dinner served in the pub was excellent too. Staff were friendly and welcoming, hassle free check in and check out. The place felt safe, convenient and is in a great location. Even the locals and other guests that I met during my stay there were friendly. The only negative thing is that the bathroom needs some work done. Although it was clean and functioning, the sink taps were dripping, shower tap was hard to stop. Tiles around the bathroom were loose, the window frame wood paint has come off and is exposed to water from the shower.

Slightly dated and requires some improvements in decor and shuts breakfast early at 9.00am. Staff were polite and were friendly. Shower in our room was good but furnishings a little outdated and bathroom window does not open causing some mould, tap dripped in sink. Breakfast was anverage and evening food was lovely.

On check in we got told the kitchen closed at 20:00. We went to order food at 19:55 a bit last minute. The barmaid told us the kitchen was closed and we could only have a chip butty we accepted this and sat down with a drink. 20 minutes later the same barmaid served a couple with a full menu and was very rude when challenged on this. I stay in this place a lot but I don't think I will again. This woman should not be in a customer facing role.

Original 19th century Inn. Full of character and charm. Smallish room, but big modern ensuite and comfortable bed. Great meals downstairs, friendly staff and customers. No lift, but we had fun getting our suitcases up the stairs. Would stay here again.

The pub and staff were lovely, food at night was very good but breakfast was disappointing. However it was included in the price. It was just a let down after such a lovely evening meal. I was disappointed with the room, at first it looked lovely but it was only surface clean. We then realized it did not have curtains, just a Venetian blind that let the light in. With a bright moon and outside lights this this led to not much sleep. The blind was also thick with dust. A pair of curtains would have made this room. For the money it was as expected, you pay your money you take your choice. However I would pay more in future to have a good night's sleep.
