We stayed 4 nights at the Inn and loved it. The breakfast were great and we had 2 dinners in the dining room that were outstanding - both considerably better than at another place in town with excellent reviews.

Great hotel with lovely friendly staff who go out of their way to help. All areas very clean and well presented. As with any old building be aware of steep steps. Fires are regularly stoked but be aware of some cooler areas.

We had a lovely time. So pleased we chose to stay at The Lamb, it was just what we love... full of character and loved all the log fires! Very cosy and all the staff are very welcoming and attentive. They work so hard, they don't stop, especially the 2 young lads behind the bar! Thank you for a lovely break!
