    There wasn't much parking is a problem and the tv buffers all the time.

    The location was spot on right in the centre of the village, staff were very friendly and helpful, room was very large we had loads of room, the breakfast was very good and the meals on a evening are excellent.

    Fan in the bathroom was perhaps faulty so made an annoying noise and kettle wouldn’t fit under the tap properly to fill it up. Had to use a mug.

    Location was perfect for what we needed. Staff really friendly. Bed really comfy. Room very clean with everything we needed. Plenty of tea, coffee, milk etc.Breakfast good value, not included in price though. We had the en-suite room, others are shared bathroom.

    You could tell the bathroom was not cleaned properly as hair was on the sink and toilet dirty. The sheets could not have been washed as mine had blood looking marks on them. I slept in my clothes as I didn’t want my body touching the sheets

    location was great

    There is no water bottle in the room as per the booking requirement to fill up the kettle. Sink to small to fill the kettle up, so I had to transfer water to kettle via a little glass! The room was very noisy and not adequately soundproofed. On the Saturday night we came back in late and customers were still in the pub gone 2 am in the morning and were very loud with also the smell of smoking coming up into our room, and causing a complete lack of sleep for me and my wife.No management to complain to in the morning so left very upset and disheartened. Would advise not to stay there at the weekend.and we definitely will not stay there again.

    Room was comfortable and clean,and staff very friendly.

    Bathroom was tiny, tv noise transferred from next room / customer noise from bar area downstairs. Someone emptied the bottle bins outside at 11.30pm which were then collected by dustbin lorry at 6.30am, which probably doesn't happen everyday but blimey is noisy! Very soft mattress, which I found uncomfortable but others will love.

    Very friendly, helpful on arrival. Room well decorated with nice touches. Great shower. Evening meal was fab and great value for money. You can park free, if spaces at front of property.

    The staff more than helpful, showing me not only the room but also how to get in and out, out of hours. To say the room was clean would be an under statement. The whole place was clean and very well looked after, I will be more than happy to stay there again when I am next in the area. It would have been rude not to have a pint at the bar, again outstanding
