Room was extremely small - no room for suitcases or bags. Midgies were an issue and had to close window - being so small the room was super stuffy. A fan was available which helped a little. If stairs are an issue for you - find somewhere else. Okay for a quick one night stop but wouldn’t recommend for any longer. Dinner (lamb) was amazing - highly recommend the food.

The room was tiny. It was also incredibly noisy. The bed was uncomfortable and leaned to one side. I couldn’t get the TV to work. The food was average at best.

This was exactly what we were looking for, we needed a bed for the night as had met friends for dinner and drinks while they were on a canal boat holiday. We had to leave early the next morning to get back for work. It was clean and tidy. We wouldn’t stay for a long stay but for the one night it was good. Staff were very nice, friendly and welcoming.

Disliked: Staff & service
Newly decorated/refurbished with a nice bathroom & comfy bed but it was really tiny and I had a view of the bins. Have to enter via the pub which smelled and was not inviting. The exterior door just below my room didn't close, let alone lock. The stair carpet and hallway chair were stained. The wifi is very very poor so I had no internet access, and no cell access either. Staff told me this is because it's a listed building and because of the rainy (but not windy) weather. My cell (vodafone) also didn't operate inside, so I was isolated and couldn't do as I had planned. I cancelled my 2nd night which they refused to refund.

Good place for a stop over and a bite to eat
Plenty of parking on arrival, nice pub with room upstairs. Check in was easy and hassle free, room was very small but expected from reading previous reviews. Very smart and tidy though with great shower. Mattress a little unforgettable. Poor wifi signal. Pub/restaurant service eas excellent menu was very creative with plenty to choose from. Little disappointed with the quantity of the meat but overall was good. Breakfast started at 8:30 and was the best ive had in a long time. Id stay again as a stop over but due to the room size it would get quite anoying.

Will not recommend
The room was small and everything was very old and worn. Bed was so squeaky that we woke up every time one of us turned. There was a rat in the restaurant area running in from the kitchen.
