The bed was very comfortable, our 2 year old slept better than he does at home as did we. Dinner was lovely and the staff were very accommodating when our table of 3 turned into a table of 6 at the last minute. So helpful when I realized I'd forgotten milk for the baby's bottle, breakfast was delicious overall we really had a great stay.

The room was spacious and comfortable. Although a few more hooks in the bathroom would be useful for hanging wash bags, but the room was well equipped in general. We loved they had a band play on the Saturday night but we were happy that they didn’t play late, as we had to be up early. We had family things to attend to but our time at the pub was pleasant.
