Lovely little property in a quiet village. All to a high standard and quirky. Only small issue was how warm the room was at night as it had been an extremely hot day.

Was let down by the food in the restaurant
The welcome was good but had to ask for fresh milk and TV issues . and the food quality in the restaurant could be better . Had the duck but it was luke warm and the side was more like a hash brown . Poor dessert

Bar and restaurant along with staff are superb Unfortunately the cleanliness of the room and the “wet room” bathroom left a lot to be desired Previous guests drink stains over the bed side tables and main table along with toothpaste “splash” all down the tiles next to the sink Carpet wasn’t swept before either and the damp smell in the bathroom needs addressing Did advise management on the way out which got a small apology Real shame as was asked if I would recommend for a colleague who is currently staying 2-3 nights a week for work locally elsewhere

Was an ok stay
It was an ok stay…it would have been nice to have had some milk on the tea tray, rather than having to go down for some in the mornings and then bring it back up to the room. It would also be quite helpful to know about the buses and frequency to /from the city from the village. When asked they didn’t know. Also had an incident with an exploding hair dryer and unfortunately another one couldn’t be provided, so it was wet hair for me. However, the bed was very comfortable and the bar area was nice and inviting with its fireplace!
