the pub had a good choice of food on the menu. our room was clean. i liked that it was in an annex separate from the pub.

The beds were unfortunately very uncomfortable. It was very noisy. loud bar music was on from 7am till 11:45pm. clearing up noise, music, and customers leaving lasted till 12ish.

satisfactory stay

quick check-inhelpful staffuncomfortable mattressnoisy children

the check-in process was quick and easy with a helpful staff member. the room was quiet and functional. breakfast had a varied choice for the cooked part plus cereals juices and bread for toast.

the bedroom was small the mattresses were cheap and very uncomfortable. the window opened from the bottom so i couldn't leave it open for fresh air. too many children were screaming in the garden areas.
