Breakfast excellent, staff friendly. Great place to stay.

Sally United Kingdom

The staff went above and beyond. Had a problem with our bathroom we had a leak from the room above but we where moved to another no problem I felt all the staff were very pleasant. A credit to the hotel.

Paul United Kingdom

Great place to stay! The staff was amazing!!! When we had a tough time getting a taxi, the owner drove us to our destination, and then picked us up later. We tried to pay him, but he refused to take payment. We had a great stay!

Paul United States of America

Everyone was very friendly. The hotel is mostly updated. The breakfast was very well done.

Dean United States of America

Very comfortable bed in a very quiet room, Evening meal was first class and excellent value and breakfast was just as good.

David United Kingdom

The staff at this hotel is the best I have ever experienced in any hotel in the world. They were all so kind and helpful!

Cynthia United States of America

I liked that they helped us book local transport. Also liked having tea and coffee in the room as well as cookies! Thank you

Joyce United States of America

The atmosphere is mellow and easygoing, yet comfortable and clean. A good blend of old and contemporary. Staff are extremely helpful and friendly.

Valerie United States of America

The staff was wonderful in every way, the food very good and the location great. The dining room had been recently renovated and was lovely. The staff was even willing to do a small load of laundry for us since the hotel was not very busy and the nearest laundry facility was a few miles away.

Diane United States of America

We like the location very much. There was a great butcher just down the street, as well as a grocery store. We love the pub that was in the hotel. They were very helpful for getting us a cab to get to our narrow boat that we were renting for a week.
