Beautiful location with the stream running in front. Located in a quaint village - it was lovely and quiet! Room was lovely and very spacious and breakfast was delicious. About a 45 minute drive to Llangollen which was a lovely place to visit. Sian and the cleaner (so sorry I forgot her name!) we're extremely friendly and helpful, even gave me access to their mobile hot-spot and helped with local attraction advice. The check-in / bar staff were a little less helpful, including dinner service - that is the only reason for the one star deduction. Everything else was great, thank you to the two ladies that helped me and made me feel so welcome :) xx

Very friendly, clean and cosy. All the staff were welcoming and the property was a lovely local pub with friendly locals. We only stayed 1 night on this occasion but we will definitely use this hotel again. Very reasonable rates that included breakfast and parking in a beautiful location. Thank you for a comfortable stay.
