Stayed at the silent the week before and I’d rather pay a little extra to stay there again in future. The lodge was basic and a little tired and did not feel the cleanliness was a great standard. Staff member who checked me in was also a bit grumpy and not very welcoming….. maybe he was just having a bad day.

Pleasant stay

It was a nice room although walls and carpet were stained. Food in the adjoining restaurant was good at night time, but breakfast really overpriced so didnt bother the second day. Quite comfortable stay quiet rooms.

Perfect for families, we felt welcome and the design of the rooms is beautiful. Excellent breakfast. The only thing we didn't like, you cannot give the children a proper bath, even in the family rooms there are only showers.

It was a lovely area very rural! The room was clean and perfectly equipped! Only down side was the bed was only a standard double and when you are used to a king it was very cosy The huge plus side to this is the staff they were lovely and couldn’t do more for you!

Nice budget hotel

Nice budget hotel. Everything you need for a night or 2. Not very good lighting and the noise from other rooms comes through the vent in the bathroom. Also the light right outside the window stays on all night, shines in above the curtain.

Nice modern interior, great for a stopover before cruuse. Only small criticism, the bed was a normal double. Seems small wgen used to hotels (and home) with king size beds.

Great couple of days away. Perfect location for what I wanted. Check in was straight forward in the pub next door. The room was large and comfortable with an exceptionally comfortable bed. The bathroom had a great, powerful shower with plenty of hot water. Good range of food and drink in the pub next door.
