    What an amazing Inn to stay at. I would thoroughly recommend and hope to return. Set in a beautiful location, staff were really polite and attentive. The food was excellent, especially the Vegan Burgers and Rhubarb cheesecake. The room was cosy , very clean, and had everything we could need. Excellent !

    The pub portion of the Inn did not appear to be open which made check in a bit more challenging, but the person responded to our phone call quite quickly. We were able to leave our bags behind after check out for a brief period which was quite helpful.

    Adored this place! This was my second time staying here, but this time, I decided to stay a week instead of two days, and it was even better than my first stay. The great location, cute historic building, and absolutely lovely, kind, and attentive staff all contributed to a wonderful experience. It was also very cosy, which was great since I came in January. I also loved the pub right next door, Turf Tavern, which was a great place to grab dinner or a drink at the end of the day. All in all a great place. I will definitely be back!
