Amazing stay from pre-check-in to check out. Clean room with amenities. We took our dog and they provided a dog bed, towel, water bowl and treats. Perfect bolthole for a stay away. We sat and played games in the snug area of the bar with an open fire for the afternoon. There’s complimentary canapés from 5:30pm and the restaurant had dishes for all dietary requirements. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We will be returning again.

Bar and Dining Room attractive, food good, staff (mostly) helpful.
Room, in adjacent development, awful: accessed only via steep, external flight of open stairs.
No offer to assist elderly customers, ( Blue Badge holder), with luggage in poor weather.
Small and cramped accommodation. Velux-style skylight in sloping roof with no other windows or view out.

A very good hotel and excellent value for money.
It is only let down slightly by the quality of evening meals served in its restaurant. Note, the breakfasts were excellent but I will definitely return to try it again.
