Arrived at the hotel after a 4 hour journey, pub was closed. Called the number, member of staff said they’d come down and let us in but then called back 2 minutes later to say no room available. There was also no parking available despite the website saying it has parking available. Still haven’t heard anything about cancellation or refund. Do not recommend!

I looked at the reviews before booking the Sri Lankan guy work in here is a really nice person and his food is also very good. Had three evening meals. Enjoyed everyone. The only thing to complain about was the lack of heating. Just put a small fan or a little oil radiator in the rooms. The Wi-Fi is good free Parking large comfortable room just a little bit chilly. I’m sure if they sorted this out I wouldn’t hesitate to come back again.

Useful stay for us on our way to Cornwall to break the journey up but we could wait to leave, mould in the bathroom, a strange welcome, and the carpet felt like it had never been vacuumed. The bed was semi comfortable but not enough pillows.

Don't get me wrong. Staff was very friendly, Room was clean and food was good. Unfortunaetly when is -1 outside and you turning heating off from 8pm for over the night. Room temp droping to 12 degrees. When I arrived heating was on but not, when ive returned from meal. I'was shivering all night and couldnt sleep. No one there at night to complain. Cannot recommend you guys, no matter how cheap or expensive it was, you should look after customers.
