"Sail Away to The Boat Inn"

10.0

The only minor point to spoil an otherwise perfect 10, was that the drain in the bedroom shower was partially blocked limiting the time you could shower before the tray filled up! Otherwise a very enjoyable experience, friendly and efficient staff, clean rooms, good food and a choice of three real ales in the bar! What more could you want.

"Comfy bed and exceptional food and service"

10.0

The Boat Inn exceeded our expectations. Our room (9) had a real wow factor and had everything we needed for a good stay. The bed was huge and very comfy. The food was exceptional, particularly the breakfasts. The staff were friendly and helpful. In fact, we liked it so much that having only intended to stay 1 night, we extended our stay for 3 nights. Definitely recommend.

This is a dream of a place to stay, opposite the River Dee. The pub itself is charming, with excellent staff and good food, and the accommodation in the ‘annex’ is first class. Highly recommended.

"Will visit again."

8.0

Lovely atmosphere in the bar/dining area and decent size seating area for the afternoon/evening sunshine. Rooms decorated tastefully, lovely breakfast-really liked the way orders were taken for courses ( granola/yoghurt/fruit followed by choice of cooked), rather than buffet style.
