Another great stay - Wifi could be better given the lack of mobile signal in the area but it did work. The hotel is excellent value for money

I enjoyed my stay, I stayed a few years back and had a good experience, so chose to go back. My room was clean, and well equipped. The food offer is good and reasonably priced. The breakfast menu has some good options. The staff were great and I found the locals welcoming.
Overall it was a great experience

Great staff and a lovely pie for the evening meal. The room was comfortable and warm with a good bed. Only slight negative on the room was the bathroom smelled (village plumbing I guess) and was a little cold as the window didn’t close properly. Breakfast was OK too.

a lovely , location for a great family get together. Overall the assistance and staff where very professional except at table service, which was a bit short of the necessary standard. perhaps some of the waiting/serving staff could be trained to a more acceptable standard.
