Very handy for me my dinner get together is next door so perfect, staff very friendly and helpful, the only downside is walls are very thin so you hear your neighbours, but otherwise all's well, breakfast can be ordered and is nice.

Location is good right across from train station and with restaurant, fish & chip shop and dairy close by. Due to rooms being down a longish driveway it was quiet with exception of some noisy other guests. We stayed in a two story room which was very spacious, clean and tidy. Only downside was that the upstairs room was open with no dividing wall. The heat pump worked well to warm the upstairs well but downstairs was still rather cold. Little kitchen had everything we needed. Towels were nice & fluffy 😊

Easy and gated parking. Great staff. Quiet even though close to train and pub. Easy spot for a business stay.
