Very happy despite a wee booking glitch!
After a slight mishap with our room allocation, the staff went above and beyond to rectify, calmly and professionally, resulting in a win-win situation. Lovely old pub with rooms, good food and great atmosphere.

Must stay location
Stayed at this location for 4 nights. Never got to have a drink in all the bars, the "pub" section is large, so are the portions in the many eating areas. The food was excellent and as previously stated were generous in size. The rooms were large and comfortable and supplied with tea, coffee, hot chocolate and even a tea pot along with biscuits and mint sweets. The only fault was due to a leak on the shower and hand basin. Apparently craftsmen are few and far between everywhere. Will certainly use this location again. The staff were always polite, helpful and couldn't do enough to make our enjoyable
