Ignore everyone that has given this place a bad review! We have stayed here for the last two years and Kath and her family have made us feel nothing but welcome. The hotel is small but due to this its more personal. The decor is warm and cosy and the breakfast is great when youve had a heavy night drinking.... More

Good breakfast,with lots of choice. Nice and warm with a thermostatically controlled radiator in the bedroom. Negatives: Bedroom was crowded with 1 double bed,a small bed settee,and bunk beds....
