Nice but not!
Nice room but stayed on a hot day with a small baby. The room has a fan but was very hot . Also facing the road so quite noisy.

Rooms with character
Needed a place to stay overnight. Found this really lovely place in well close to motorway. Our room had real character with creaky floor boards and beams in the bedroom and bathroom. Well decorated. Awesome breakfast included in the price.

Room was lovely and well designed to preserve the original building. If you want toilet privacy from your other guest I wouldn’t recommend it!
The food was good for breakfast but the pub dining area needs a good clean as there was an unpleasant smell around the entrance.
WiFi in the rooms was ok.

Comfortable and convenient
Quirky room in a good way. Friendly staff, good food.
A little noisy, but didn’t both me.
