Rooms not great, pub food ok
Room was damp and cold. Bed mattress springs were in your back and couldn’t sleep. Food was nice in the pub though.

Room 3
The beds are not the most comfortable, the shower drain is blocking up and won’t be long before it overflows but the premises serves my purposes.

Friendly and great value
Lovely pub. The room was in an outbuilding behind it - simple but clean and nicely decorated. Friendly welcome and great service. Mattress wasn't the most comfortable, but all in all a lovely place to stay at a very good price - I would definitely stay again.
