Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms dated but clean. Bathroom needed an upgrade. Mattress/pillows not the comfiest which was a shame. Room doors slam so need to be mindful when closing. Dinner menu basic but suited us and food was good. Good choice for breakfast and this was also good. Limited bar on offer. Despite comments, overall a pleasant stay.

On arrival day, no lunch available which is fine but the young woman on reception just told us she could not offer recommendations of where to eat: ‘I don’t come from this area’.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. We had a nice clean large room. On the whole very nice hotel only negative was that the drinks in the bar, perhaps a little pricey.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Private, lovely rural situation, hot water, courtesy biscuits, friendly polite staff. Would have liked cans or bottles of Diet Coke rather than Pepsi on draught from the bar. Salad with dinner was minimal, no bread roll… but steak was good, thank you
