It’s got the basics for a quick stay
It was a quick overnight stay. The room had the basic necessities for what you need. Felt a bit dated and the bed was quite hard but overall it was okay and suited a one night stay.

This is a very good value for the price. The grill area was excellent and the people running the place were amazing. It may not be the most flash place but it was the best value that we have found in several trips to the area.

Booked for 2 nights during Festival but upon arrival was allocated an upstairs room. Despite the property not being fully booked was told a ground floor room was not available. This was a problem for us as being elderly we found that climbing stairs difficult.
Parking was behind the building and open to anyone passing, I found this not very secure. Restaurant was Closed.
