Excellent Stay with Great Food

big bedgarden viewfully stocked teasreally good curry
The double room had a big bed and a pleasant view over the garden, it felt warm and homely. I found the selection of teas and coffees to be fully stocked. The evening meal in the restaurant impressed me. I ordered the Thai Curry and chips and considered it really good.
It would have been useful to know about the Thai menu being the primary option! as it might not suit all tastes.

Very good food could be found at the pub, and there were a couple of cask ales. The Thai Curry was possibly the best I've eaten. I was impressed. I noted a Chinese takeaway opposite the pub. It only accepts cash.

adequate stay. with a few quirks

separate bathroomthin walls
The bathroom wasn't exactly en-suite. It was down the hall. not ideal for midnight trips. also, the walls felt awfully thin. I think the couple next door was training for a lumberjack competition or something. no warning about that

Helpful Staff and Excellent Food

helpful staffexcellent foodlorry parkingexcellent room
The staff went out of their way to help me. I was delivering coal to the local steam train. They allowed me to park my lorry in their car park. The room was excellent and the food was also excellent and very well priced.
It was not clear the toilet and bathroom facilities were down the corridor. I did not bring appropriate clothing for moving around during the night.
