Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This properly looked idilic from the pictures, but what they don’t tell you is it’s right next to a main road. I thought the ear plugs were a nice touch but soon realised they were a must as there was constant traffic and also sounded like a tap was running constantly. The coffee was disgusting and the sugar stollen from a McDonald’s. There was mould on the wall paper and you couldn’t open the windows. The bed was so uncomfortable I barely slept and woke up with back ache in the morning.

Very spacious rooms. Very quiet considering it was dog friendly. Room was upgraded to one with a bath at no extra touch which spoke volumes about the owners. Great location and would definitley stay there again

Not really a hotel - poor
No reception in this "hotel". Room looked lovely, but bed was the worst I have ever slept in, so soft, really uncomfortable (room 4), I ended up sleeping on the floor. Windows didn't fully close, but were painted in that position, so road noise was very bad. Reading similar reviews (indeed one about the poor bed), their response is very generic, so guess they know of the problems, but don't care enough to fix them (eg get a proper hotel mattress, not a cheapy off the internet). i booked this as it looked like a nice restful place to stay (eincluding the name), but this spoilt the start of our weekend break as I was so tired the next couple of days. I would suggest the owner needs to read these pieces of feedback on Hotels.com and actually do something about them. I will definitely not go back to stay, which is a shame as it is a good location and the restaurant next door was very nice.

Nice peaceful location with great access to to local places to visit. Good value for money if you don’t need to be in the middle of town, beats a Lenny Henry place hands down,

Ideal for the Purpose
Really clean and convenient but some noise from the main road outside. Would recommend my single room for short stay for one person, at a price far lower than for a Premier Inn.
