Comfortable, great food, good value!
I've stayed here before, so i expected it to be good, and it was. A comfortable single room, with a well-lit desk for doing some work. The evening meal was excellent! (Unfortunately I was unable to have breakfast, but i know it would have been good.)

When we arrived, the restaurant was closed for reasons beyond their control, but they helped us order takeaway, which we ate in their pub.

Not as good as the rating
The staff in the pub were very welcoming. The accommodation is not in the pub but in a separate building at the back of the car park. The building has four, ground storey bedrooms. The bed linen was a yellowish colour and the bed not very comfortable. The room was rather dated ad tired looking, really not sure how this location got a 'superb' rating.
