Moving beer barrels at 7am = not great. However, the staff are absolutely fantastic. They are very friendly, helpful, have a great sense of humour and nothing is too much trouble. Dinner and breakfast were very good. We were staying in the annexe but not far to run in the rain!! Thank you for the fizz for our celebration and a great stay 50 years after the first time we visited.

I would love to have given 5 stars for this property but 2 things let it down. 1. One member of staff who served breakfast was quite rude. All the other staff deserved 10/10 2. The room was quite noisy at night, being at the front of the hotel.

Lovely spacious room in the cottage. Everything was catered for. Options for breakfast and dinner. We had a lovely sitting outside area which was handy on one of the hottest days. We parked in the long stay car park but then the lady on reception informed us that after 5pm the street was quieter and we managed to park our car nearby.

The staff were very friendly. We arrived by bike and they were helpful with storing those. The rooms comfortable and clean. The only complaint was the food which was bland in flavour and not up to the standard of the rest of the place
