A bit of truck noise overnight might bother those noise sensitive. A very reasonable rate gives you a spotless room, comfortable bed, decent TV, good bathroom with walk in shower. You even get tea, coffee and biscuits. Parking on site. Very good value.

Location was good within walking distance to restaurants, shops and pubs, etc.. We booked 3 nights from Easter Thursday to Sunday, and traffic noise was only evident on one night. Julian was very friendly on arrival and offered to call the Stick Shed to see if they were open. No daily house-keeping on public holidays but replacement towels were provided on request and bins emptied. There is a service station next door which is also a mini-mart and a good selection of foods. We did the Silo Trail and found it convenient to stay in one place and travel each day to and fro. Overall the motel was what you would expect of a normal country motel - good value for money.
