Room was basically clean. My only complaint is that the shower worked intermittently. When I got it to a temperature that wouldn’t scald me it stopped. After a few minutes tried it again, got a burst of water for 1 minute then it turned off again. This performance repeated several more times til I gave up on it. Staff were friendly. Plenty of parking.

Wow, thank you to Sue and her team, Sally, Sal and Will. What a warm welcome! We had such a lovely time with you all. A well run, friendly and warm spirited pub and B&B. The drinks were cold, and flowed easily and the food second to none. I would not hesitate to recommend a stay. No wonder the local patrons enjoy spending their down time with you!
