Amazing themed rooms, very clean m with crisp white cotton sheets, and very comfy bed and pillows.
Powerful shower and fluffy towels.
Breakfast choice was amazing, cooked to order , very hot and tasty.
Staff could not have been more helpful, requested more tea and milk sachets, bought to our room with 5 mins and asked if we would prefer fresh milk!
Lady serving breakfast was lovely, very helpful and friendly
Definitely stay here again

Loved it here, the food is exceptional!..
The room was very clean and tidy and all staff go above and beyond to be welcoming..
The one and only downside is the music was really loud in the bar, unfortunately it was the night we stayed that there was also a big party downstairs partying until 11pm!..
But don't let this out you off as it really is a very unique place to stay

Great place to stay.
This is a great themed pub, hotel , the staff are friendly and on the ball , even showing you to your room .
My room was clean and even carried on the Wild West theme . The food was a little limited, but is was a cowboy/ cowgirl place so I guess they eat a lot of burgers.
