We got a warm welcome at the Millers Arms. They were really accommodating when I realised I had booked a twin room in error. The Millers Arms is very central with all the sights within easy reach. The room was very clean and the breakfast good.

Staff were very welcoming like always ( jenny) food, breakfast was delicious. This was our 3rd visit to Millers Arms, the only fault this visit was our room was very small bed not very comfortable and I found the lighting in the room was a bit dark specially for getting ready & doing my makeup , although bathroom light was bright but mirror was very high up on the wall I couldn’t really use ! Otherwise thank you.

Very Clean,Warm & Functional Room albeit Small. Mattress was quite Hard Pillow Firm & Heavy Quilt so sadly not a great sleep! No Soap provided for some reason - Limited ‘Menu Breakfast’ but what we had was good quality - Expensive Parking forced a long walk for Free Place 😡

We got the best room to my knowledge, Room #7. It was large for the Site, had a nice tub and a nice view of the Stout(river). The people made it amazing but I will say that the food there was excellent as well. Best Scotch Egg I have ever had!!! It is not luxury but very charming, and still has refinement!!

Lovely friendly staff, nothing was too much trouble. Had an excellent time staying here, breakfast was so good, I didn't want it to end. Lunch the previous day was also outstanding. Beautiful log fire in the bar kept us warm throughout the night.
