surprisingly lovely stay

helpful staff convenient bar
The staff proved really helpful, especially when i needed extra towels, they promptly delivered them. the hotel also has a convenient bar. I enjoyed trying a new gin there! the bar service had friendly staff.
The stairs were quite narrow. Carrying luggage up them was difficult. i was not aware there was no lift. it affected my experience.

Solid Stay

hard work early hour great food reasonable price
The family that runs the place worked very hard. They helped other guests when a nearby b and b had to evacuate. They opened their doors to those guests in the early hours. Their food is great I thought. The Jack Daniel wings are very reasonably priced I saw.
The room was very small. I booked knowing it was small however I didn't expect it to be that small. There were no drawers or bedside cabinets.
