I was greeted by the friendly manageress. I was bumped up to a larger room from my original single so I can't say if the facilities are the same. The room was clean and comfortable with a microwave and fridge as well as the usual coffee/tea, etc. It had a fan to cool you down and an extra cover to warm you up. The shower-room was a reasonable size with added toiletries. ##### Linda Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Jamie 4 Feb 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Clean room with TV, microwave,Fridge and kettle but unfortunately there wasn't a bin ##### Jamie Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sarah 7 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities The check in staff were friendly and accommodating. The location was good for our requirement. Nice pub and most of the locals were friendly. Felt unwelcomed with the seating in the non-operational bar where we were trying to accommodate the viewing of the game for the other guests. Felt blamed for parking in the space provided as directed by staff; there was no signage saying that the area was to be kept clear as this is a fire exit. However, alternative parking provided relatively quickly. Also, the fan provided in the room did not work. ##### Sarah Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 24 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A Pleasant Stay.
