Really enjoyed this stay and the staff was so lovely couldn’t have made me and my friends more welcomed They cooked a spread for nye and we had a party and they let myself family and friends with children all stay in a little section of the pub and it was lovely for our duration of the stay My room was cold the first night cos the window wasn’t shut properly but there was heaters and extra covers for us to use and any thing I wanted I’m sure Susan and Claire would have got it for me

The staff first of all were so lovely and it felt like just staying at family home - very accommodating and trusting , they put a spread on for NYE and fireworks and it was lovely, they let us as a group keep the children in till late and also they let us bring our own food in to nibble on as they weren’t serving food so it was perfect for our group of friends to be in a warm bar with room for the kids to be all together and alcohol and soft drinks were served for the adults - The bed was comfortable we were in the family room and amenities were in for us to be self catering It wasn’t loud considering bar underneath Claire the bar staff was so helpful and lovely as well as the other lady but I got on with Claire straight away Susan had another bar and gave free shots to my boyfriend and his friends while they visited there I’m looking forward to the summer as I will be back. Such a friendly pub and b&b will hope the on in the summer but I think if I asked Susan to make me something she would go out the way to do that Hospitality was lovely

The room was up a short flight of stairs above the bar. It was small but perfectly well appointed. The shower room was small, and while was fine for a short stay would not have been for a longer stay. Everything else was good.
