Great for short stay
Good overnight stop while visiting family
Good big room and bathroom and pub access
A lovely overnight stop off on our road trip through Wales. The owner and staff were friendly and welcoming. Would stay here again if we are travelling this way
Friendly, helpful staff. Room was spacious and comfortable which was great for a dog friendly hotel. Locals in the bar were very friendly also. We enjoyed our stay.

Staff were amazing. Louise was so very helpful. Quaint pub area with great seating options. Breakfast was a little pricey for the quality. Rooms were decent. Very plain. Shower was a little awkward with water splashing out constantly.
Absolutely fantastic time had with a live band playing in the pub. The staff are friendly and helpful! Me and my partner will definitely be staying again!

The hotel is small but cosy . The lady at the reception, who checked us in, was very polite and pleasant. If you drink , the pub downstairs is very convenient .
The hotel’s staff is kind, and the food is excellent! However, the only inconvenience was that after 11 p.m., we had to use the outdoor stairs because the main door was no longer accessible.
On arrival we were greeted in a professional manner and shown the fire exit and taken to our room.
We then went to have a meal in their restaurant and honestly it was awful. We had to wait and ask twice for the sauce we ordered for the steak which the steak tasted so old and not seasoned and was not edible. We did complain and was offered something else but by this time we felt so ill and could not face anything else to ear. We then went up to our room to lay down and watch tv but we couldn't as we have only a couple of channels which did not even include BB1/BB2/ITV or 5, no channels to even watch a film. We had also requested an electric fan on booking with Hotels.com and we did not have one. We then decided we wanted to go home as it was such a disaster compared to the 1st time we stayed. We will not be staying there again.
My short stay was very good, there was a warm welcome for me and my dog Tess, Jacob was an excellent Host. The food, drinks and the staff where very friendly, well done all. I will recommend.
Absolutely brilliant, as soon as you walk in the staff are friendly same as the locals, definitely gonna stay again, no complaints from me at all, the bed is comfortable aswell. Keep it up
