My husband booked us in on valentines weekend for a romantic getaway! We booked in and were shown to our room by a very nice young lady who informed us that she was covering whilst the owner was on holiday, our first impression of the 4 poster room was of how cold it felt...we thought that the heating must have...

We asked... More

The new owner Bhup and his wife Rachel are very friendly and we were treated very well. The room was fine with a comfy bed. The best bit was the food and beer. Both dinner and... More
