"Good location for touring, great facilities, lovely hosts, great homemade food."

8.0

Claire & Mark were fabulous hosts, very welcoming and friendly. There were three fella's on a one night stop over whilst touring on motorbikes. We were offered secure parking for our bikes in a large outbuilding as well as a drying room if it were needed at no extra charge which was an unexpected bonus. We ate in the bar where the homemade food was just supurb, good portions reasonably priced. Nice bar with an open fire, made welcome by the locals in there so a really nice experience. Breakfast which was inclided in the room price, was again excellent with a choice of continental and or cooked, which was cooked fresh by Claire, plenty of tea/coffee toast as well.

There wasn't anything we didn't like, you need to understand what you are booking i.e. its a 17th century building and as such the layout is not a premier inn or travelodge, but a clean comfortable establishment that is very welcoming and well run by a fantastic couple, with a nice bar and fantastic homemade food.

"George Borrow stayed here. He chose well."

9.0

Think outside the box! A hearty welcome. Extremely responsive staff. Really good breakfasts. Home cooked evening meals. A privately run hotel with the emphasis on hospitality.

An outstanding discovery. But don't tell everyone!
