    central location
    steep stairways
    inconsistent furnishings

    Central village location, spacious outdoor seating area, range of entertainment options

    The steep stairways could use a better accessibility solution!!! More consistency in upkeep of room furnishings is needed to enhance comfort!!! It felt frustrating during peak times when service took forever!!!

    staff issues

    The cleanliness and comfort of the twin room were great, but the service had some hiccups, like long wait times for food and staff issues. Despite that, the welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff made our time enjoyable, and I would definitely revisit in the future.

    cozy dining
    gluten free options
    road noise

    Perfect pit stop!

    Had a fab stay here! The staff were super friendly and gave us a cozy booth for dinner. Loved the gluten-free options, that burger bun was ⭐ amazing! Our dog was chillin’ while we ate, which was a nice touch. Only downside was the noise from the road, could hear it a bit too much.

    delicious breakfast
    fresh milk
    dinner reservation confusion

    We had a lovely overnight stay, enjoying the stunning sunset walk by the lake and the delicious full English breakfast. It was nice to relax with tea and fresh milk in the room after a long trip. The only downside was a bit of confusion with our dinner reservation, as there was a mix-up with table availability.

    quaint charm
    warm lighting
    cozy decor
    steep stairs
    narrow access

    The quaint charm of the inn's decor reminded me of my grandmother's cozy living room, complete with floral patterns and warm lighting that made everything feel like a big hug. The accessibility helped me feel at ease navigating around.

    Stairs could be challenging for those with mobility issues.

    cleanliness issue

    Lovely pub with amazing staff!

    We had such a fun stay! The staff were super friendly and even fussed over our sausage dogs, which was adorable. The location is perfect, right near the beautiful hills. We enjoyed chilling at the bar/lounge area, but the room could’ve been a bit cleaner. Can’t wait to visit again!

    homemade muffins
    cozy bar
    hearty meals
    overpowering aroma
    thick pillows

    Those homemade muffins at breakfast were pure magic! The cozy bar with log burners kept us warm and fuzzy. Plus, the hearty meals had us coming back for more!

    The gents' toilets had an overpowering aroma, which wasn't ideal. the pillows were a tad too thick for my liking. Small nibbles, but worth mentioning. Huge thanks to the staff—you truly shine!

    The stay exceeded expectations with warm and efficient staff, ensuring everything from room cleanliness to the breakfast experience was top-notch.

    friendly staff

    Ideal for a restful getaway

    The room was nice and clean, really liked the balcony it gave a great view. Staff were super helpful, dinner and breakfast both hit the spot.

    Sure it wasn't cheap but still acceptable, if you're looking for a decent place.

    noise disturbances

    Had a lovely room with a beautiful view of the greenery. The food was fantastic, especially the steak and ale pie. We struggled with the noise from other guests during our stay. Enjoyed nearby hiking and the quick access to local attractions.

    delicious food
    clean room
    dirty cushions
    poor staff demeanor

    The breakfast menu impressed me with a variety of options. Each morning, the dishes were delicious and freshly prepared. The table settings looked perfect, adding to the dining experience. Room No. 7 offered breathtaking views, and I loved relaxing on the balcony. Our room was spacious, clean, and had a comfortable bed with high-quality linens. The staff greeted us warmly. not all aspects were great. The cushions on the bed had noticeable stains, which felt out of place against the otherwise fresh bedding. One staff member's abrupt demeanor during our inquiry about early check-in made us feel unwelcome. A simple explanation would have made a difference. During breakfast, I noticed a lack of courtesy from the staff when clearing the plates. It's important for hospitality to involve pleasant interactions, especially for special occasions like an anniversary. These little things impacted our overall enjoyment, given the room rates.
