Very Good

Lovely place to stay while visiting relatives.
Loved that our room had out door entrance.
Perfect for our little dog too.
Views are amazing and great for walking too
Good luck to the new owners of this venture, they all worked hard to make us welcome.
Breakfast freshly cooked and excellent value
Evening meals as above.
Would recommend this place to anyone, and we would return again
Rooms are small, but recently refurbished, bright and very clean. Staff are friendly and helpful, but business has recently reopened and there are still processes that need to be sorted out.
None of the above. The hotel was dreadful. No roaring fire...no evening meal/food...no breakfast.
I have stayed in better Truck stops.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
“Bar only opened five weeks ago”; “kitchen only opened three weeks ago”; “we’re new and never run a hotel before”. WiFi didn’t work, consequently smart TV didn’t either. It was a bit like walking into someone’s front room
