smashing stay!
friendly staff delicious food perfect location
i loved the warm welcome! the staff was good and quickly moved us to a quieter table away from the birthday celebrations. we devoured every crumb of our starters, mains, and puddings, such great food! this hotel is dog friendly. it's in a great location for climbing nearby mountains.
the mattress in my room was a bit tired, springs a little gone.

Rooms
8/10
the rooms are everything was super clean and well-equipped, a nice space to unwind. my room was big enough for me and my dog, so it's definitely suitable for pet owners. the refurbishment has resulted in rooms that are nicely decorated.

the restaurant is excellent and offers a range of home-cooked food and hand-pulled beer. the hotel is nicely decorated and very well kept, giving a sense of quality. there's a lovely roaring fire in the pub, so it is cozy after a long day.
