Perfect location right by the train station and bus stops as we didn’t have a car. Lovely walk right next door which I highly recommend. Hotel is old and a bit worn out but very clean and tidy and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Enjoyed our stay in a lovely part of the country.

This walk is right next door to the hotel

All good but it would be nice to have a closed room or cupboard to store bags before check in. The loos in main reception were a bit smelly. The bedroom was lovely nicely decorated.. very basic but clean and nice bathroom. Great breakfast

The hotel provided the facilities that we required for our stay. On the negative side, we felt the interior could do with some refurbishment, although we noticed that some work was in progress.

Nice historic building and exterior. Nice and close to station. Good things end there. Paint in rooms is old and scuffed, with various marks on the walls and doors. Can hear everything happening in the hallways. Good water pressure, but temperature could only be described as lukewarm. Breakfast was average and not worth it.

Great value and good location.

Great value, a short walk to the town, and about a 20 minute walk to the lake. The room was comfortable , the staff were very polite and helpful, and no issue parking, th3 shower was amazing.
