Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a cozy, traditional pub-style accommodation with some room for improvement in cleanliness. The hosts take pride in their meals and offer friendly, helpful service. The location is excellent for sightseeing. The morning dining experience is satisfactory but could be enhanced.
The hotel had a perfect location for my travels, being ideal for visiting TrailGraze and Seven Sheds Brewery in Railton before heading off to explore further. The rooms, though spacious, lacked enough comfortable seating and could have been cleaner. The service was excellent and very welcoming, making our stay enjoyable. The dining experience, although helpful to start the day, would have been better in a dedicated dining area. Overall, the hotel offers a great location for sightseeing but could use some improvements in cleanliness and room amenities.
The hotel had a cozy traditional pub-style accommodation, making it a nice stay despite the rooms and shared facilities not being clean. The staff was friendly and helpful, although some areas needed improvement.
