Adrian (reception staff) was lovely from the moment I called him to say I was going to arrive late. He was so accommodating. The room was clean, comfortable, presented lovely, and the air con was on waiting for me meaning the room was cooled. Very thoughtful after a long drive on a hot day. I would definitely recommend and stay again. Thank you!

The property was rated as 4 star but more like 1 star. The room was dated, paint off the walls, dingy and definitely needs an upgrade. The photos on the booking link definitely did not reflect the room we were given.
