The hotel is right off the main A road so very handy for travel with parking spaces out the front. The room and bathroom were a decent size as well as clean, comfy and well equipped. The shower was nice and powerful. The grounds to this hotel are really lovely and the pub/restaurant itself was decent with nice staff and delicious food. Point to note is there is nothing around this hotel so make sure you check times and book in for evening meals if needed.

When I arrived I received a very warm welcome from the owner and all of the members of staff that I met. I had an excellent dinner on two nights at the hotel and once again the staff were excellent offering a very personal service. On one of the nights the restaurant was quite busy but it didn't affect the great service or the time it took to prepare my meal. It was the same at breakfast where the choices were excellent.
