New Year Weekend.
Generally a lovely weekend, and felt homely and welcoming with staff. Weekend stop during New Year weekend. Some aspects of the fixtures and fitting did look a little tired, but overall enjoyable

Fantastic location, our room was in the corridor to the rear of the property next lo the rear entrance which was a little noisy. Reasonable food and facilities, just felt a little dated in places, and not sure we’d give it 4 stars. That’s said we enjoyed our stay and none of the above spoiled our weekend.
