Stayed here for 2 nights in the middle of the week, in winter so I imagine it was much quieter than it will be in the summer. Hotel was absolutely superb- extremely comfortable, clean, with a relaxing atmosphere. It is decorated very well, lovely art on the walls, very tasteful. We stayed in the smallest double room available- a really cosy attic room- and we did not find that the size was an issue, it did not feel cramped. At night it was very quiet and peaceful. Breakfast was also delicious- there are definitely options for everyone- and the extras (such as some free fudge and teas and hot chocolate for the room) were very much appreciated. Staff were lovely and welcoming- all in all a really enjoyable experience! Hopefully we will be returning there one day.
It was an awesome experience! The lovely couple-run hotel gave us an amazing stay in every aspect. The homemade warm breakfast surpassed our expectations!
The best accommodation we have stayed in. Clare and Rob were the perfect host and nothing was ever too much trouble.
The hotel is in a perfect location for shops and country walks and the rooms are clean and comfortable.
We will absolutely be booking for our summer break next year.
