A place with a character, something missing these days. Very affordable prices plus a hearty breakfast. Excellent customer service, a family atmosphere, a wonderful, romantic garden, and a great bar. I would recommend this place to anyone.

The room was very comfortable, with lovely finishing touches. Dinner was excellent. Breakfast was very nice but the veggie sausage could be improved to a modern plant-based product rather than the old-fashioned mixed vegetable sausage.

This property is amazing! I stayed here with my husband and son. We were on the top floor in the attic room. This wasn’t a problem. There was a couple of small flights of stairs nothing we couldn’t manage. We had a private bathroom which was cleaned to a high standard. Fresh towels provided daily. Everything is so clean with a homely feel. The owners are very friendly and welcoming. I loved the decor and the quotes around the B&B especially the one on the entrance door. It made me smile each time i left. Breakfast is next level. We all really enjoyed it with so much choice. I recommend the granola which is made by the B&B owners it was delicious. The beds are so comfortable first night after traveling a long distance we all slept 12 hours!
