Nice little b&b, value for money, comfortable bed and good facilities. Bathroom could have definitely been cleaner, hair blocking bath and what I think was watered down body wash. Would come again though. Lovely location and staff nice and informative.

This property is in a quiet village and the local views are stunning. My only criticism is the lack of electronic device charging ports. Many pubs are switching at least the bedside power receptacles to the ones with built in usb ports. Other than this small inconvenience it was perfect

Great pub in a lovely village

Unfortunately due the heatwave the room was to small & it was like sleeping in an oven, I appreciate it wasn’t the owners fault , but a fan just didn’t do the job , we had our dog with us , happy to say it’s very dog friendly , the food was excellent especially the breakfast , would return in cooler weather

Excellent stay - a really nice big room, spotlessly clean with all the facilities you could need. For me the bed was too firm, but that's my back. Not easy to please! Thank you for a lovely stay.
