Pity about the parking charge

Very friendly staff. Lovely room. Fairtrade hot drinks! Watch out for £10 / night secure parking charge and for busy restaurant at the pub. Can recommend Glenton's bakery next door for breakfast and lunch items. Overall excellent value .

1 night stay

Lovely welcome and quick check in. Room was very comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. We had dinner in the restaurant which had a good variety reasonably priced meals and drinks. We opted not to have breakfast in the hotel as we thought this was a little expensive at £15 -£20 per person. Overall an enjoyable stay.
