Check-in date:
“ Lovely hotel. Service was exceptional. Food was good particularly steak and ale pie. Rooms were clean and of a good size. We did have a slight problem with a large amount of lady birds in our room which was resolved straight away. We were also impressed that we were allowed to have a late check out with no extra charge due to attending a wedding in the local area. Would definately recommend the hotel although at nearly ninety pounds we did feel this was a little steep for a inn rather than a full on hotel.
