Lovely staff. Basic decent accommodation. Weird smell in my room. Shower inadequate – a fixed showerhead with no hose, and useless curtain. I didn’t use the restaurant/ pub.

We stayed at the Starling Cloud for one night as we were attending a funeral at the nearby crematorium. The rooms are in a block away from the main pub so more quiet than you might expect. The room was clean with a comfortable mattress so we had a good night’s sleep. The staff were very helpful and friendly throughout our stay.
