We requested a late checkout on the online booking for a truck driver on his 24 hour break which wasn’t granted unfortunately. Windows in the bathroom are kept open which makes it noisier with the police station behind the car park. Clean, recently renovated, small room but good for an overnight, excellent air con.

Gem by name... Gem by nature

A beautiful property in an incredible part of the country. The hotel is large enough to feel luxurious, yet small enough to feel intimate & comfortable. The rooms were a great size & very well appointed with a good shower & everything you need as a traveller. The restaurant was fantastic & food was beautiful - really highlighting the produce of the region. Definitely would stay here again.
