Positive Reviews
positive:
Friendly and welcoming hosts
Guests have tended to rate the standard of service here highly, finding the hosts and staff friendly and welcoming. There have been a couple of issues seemingly caused by understaffing but, overall, the service appears to be fairly attentive.
positive:
Clean and well presented
Reviews suggest that you'll find most areas of this property are clean and well presented. The premier room and flower gardens seem to be particularly well attended to, although feedback suggests that it is unlikely you will encounter any issues surrounding cleanliness.
positive:
Decent breakfast and dining
The quality of the breakfast here has proved impressive to previous visitors, many of whom have commented favourably on the standard of the food and the generous portion sizes. The bar menu also attracts positive feedback. The early bird menu appears to be particularly reasonably priced.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Wi-Fi regularly disappoints
The Wi-Fi here appears to be a regular source of disappointment. Guests have found the signal poor and only available in certain areas of the property. Those who did get online often describe the connection as poor. Mobile phone reception is similarly disappointing.
negative:
Steep stairs with poor lighting
Guests note that the stairs to the rooms are steep, narrow, and poorly lit. This is an inconvenience when trying to get up and down the stairs with luggage or in the dark and may prevent mobility impaired guests from staying at all.
negative:
May seem overpriced
Feedback from guests suggests that this property would be better described as a pub with B&B rooms as opposed to a hotel. Several guests have found the name rather misleading and been disappointed as a result, also finding that the rooms are priced too highly.
