The room was clean and spacious as was the en-suite shower room. The staff on the desk were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was excellent, although I would have liked to see mushrooms amongst the hot food on offer. I requested vegetarian sausages and they were good quality, probably Linda McC. All in all a very pleasant stay and lovely quiet location.

The staff were friendly and breakfast was good. The rooms are run down, no air con, our sheets didn't fit the bed properly and mattress was exposed and pillow cases weren't doubled so all the fibres were hanging out of the pillow and there was dust dirt and bugs in the room.
