Food was great
Newly refurbished hotel. We stayed in a standard double which was nicely appointed . The bed however was very bouncy and the floorboards creaky. The walls are thin as I could hear the person in the next room snoring. The food was of a high standard both for dinner and breakfast. I would recommend staying but would book a twin next time

Great place to stay.
What a lovely place to stay. Room was lovely and the photos on the web don’t do the palace justice it’s even prettier in the flesh. The view from the room was stunning and the staff went over and above. Breakfast was yummy. Highly recommended!

Really Lovely, very short stay for us. Stay was perfect Area is serene and beautiful however just felt a little isolated and hardly any lighting on the streets making it a little unsafe when driving in the dark. Although was perfect location for the hike we wanted to join in the morning.

A real gem
We were welcomed by Gary who was very attentive & worked very hard throughout our stay. We were upgraded to a beautiful room which was a nice surprise. Food was excellent & overall we had a very comfortable stay. Would definitely recommend.

Thus us the second time in the past five years that my family and I have booked a multi-day stay at the Three Shires Inn. This time, again, we were enormously pleased with our visit. The amenities, the food, the location, and particularly the staff were all first-rate. As was the weather, surprisingly. Only the traffic on the narrow roads was a challenge.

Friendly staff, good food, lovely clean room, nice outdoor seating area to enjoy the beautiful views. We never had a problem parking but space is limited. You need a car to drive to other locations or be extremely fit! The rooms are up a relatively steep staircase so enquire if you have mobility issues.

An excellent weekend stay
Booked on line for a weekend visiting Family. Booking was straight forward. Googled the location and was easy to find - the roads however are narrow with few passing places. Some drivers will drive too quickly which makes live interesting. The hotel has parking spaces which quickly fill, although we didnt have a problem The beer garden is comfortable with plenty of areas for shade. Lovely hanging baskets and plants. Lovely views! The bar was nice, the checkin process was quick and simple, everything was ready for us. The room was simply furnished but very comfortable - the mattress was very springy. The bathroom was very nice, the TV had all the channels we would want. We didnt stay for dinner the first night but did the second, choice was good and very nice. Breakfast wasnt too big but very nice. Checkout was easy. All in all I would definately stay there again!
