Excellent service, even in the winter!

An excellent hotel, the only one in the whole town to have the heating fully on, therefore it was very comfortable in the dead of winter. The food at its restaurant is also excellent, their chef is very talented.

We picked our location first and narrowed the choice of hotel to the Grant Arms and one other. We chose the GAH because it was an old, established hotel with a great reputation and ticked all our boxes. The staff were brilliant, great views & food and a well stocked bar.
