Basic hotel - price reflects the hotel really.

The stay was OK. The room was basic with 1 double and 2 single beds in room. The TV was old and remote a bit grubby. Worst thing for me was the extremely slow wifi. When connected, it tested on average at only 1mbps which is impossible to either work with or for watching any streaming services.... constantly buffering.

The room was old with no basic amenities. I felt like I was in a dorm room. For some unknown reason, I was put into a handicap room. Shower water flowed out into bathroom. Do not stay here.

I loved the bedroom and dining room. The style of decor was excellent and bedroom nice and dark. Food was fabulous very tasty and filling. Good choice of foofd at breakfast. You could choose your own omelette filliing and they were lovely. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The only problems were that the sink tended to block and phone didnt work.

The property is a lovely, clean and well kept place with a great menu and really nice well portioned food offering in the evening. However the breakfast is a continental breakfast from 0700-0900 then cooked breakfast from 0900 until 1100am. This meant that there was no option for me to enjoy the cooked breakfast as I was travelling for work and had to be out of the hotel well before 0900am. . Most business travelers will be out before the cooked breakfast offering is available which is why most other hotels offer a cooked breakfast from 0630. Just something to consider!

The staffs are very attentive to our needs. And they will also cook a hot meal for you , upon request, during breakfast. Their coffee will be served to your table with a lovely aroma and great taste. And you can stroll around their beautiful garden . Will stay again with them whenever we come back❤

Very nice rural pub / hotel. Clean, comfy, quiet, spacious room. My only complaint was that the cooked breakfast didn't start until 9am on the Thursday morning so I left with only a Pain au Chocolat. Would happily stay again though
