    The location is fantastic with a small stream bubbling through the open areas. The building is beautiful with thatched roof, exposed beams and masses of "old world" charm. Check in was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast basket was novel...

    Beautiful thatched cottage inn and pub. Friendly, helpful staff. Room was quiet, comfortable and well appointed with easy access. Plenty of parking and easy to find location.
