We had an excellent stay in this lovely old but very comfortable Inn. Hospitality and friendliness could not be faulted. Real ale and a hearty breakfast - what more could you ask for!

Disappointed
The service was good. Food was good, with staff coping well with my wife's food allergies. However the accommodation is highly unsuitable for anyone with even slightly limited mobility. The narrow staircase, the cramped room, the changing levels in the en suite, the uneven floor, the low ceilings made for an uncomfortable experience, such that we did not stay for the second night we had booked (but were still charged). The full view of the toilet available to any passing hikers is also disconcerting.
