Dinner in the pub was great. Cooked breakfast was served very quickly and was fantastic. As a surveyor, is say that extract fan not working in the ensuite to Room 4 will mean that the room will get a musty smell if not sorted. Would come back certainly. B

The Ragged.Cot is a lovely place. A little out of the way, for walk to locations, but an excellent restaurant is on site and it is close to other locations if driving. I enjoyed my stay.

Lovely reception as we were running late due to the RIAT event. We called ahead to let them know we were en route & that we may be a few minutes late for our meal time in the restaurant, but the team were so welcome & confirmed it was fine.
