6/10 Good

Breakfast was non-existant although paid for. Was dissapointed to be told on arrival that what appeared from the website to be full english breakfast was in fact only going to be a continental breakfast which would be left in a small fridge upstairs. Was even more disappointed to find the fridge empty in the morning. Mis-selling breakfast left a stain on what was an otherwise great stay with great staff attention and good evening meal.

TV in bedroom didn’t work. It was reported and nothing happened. Sink took forever to drain. Shower was next to useless. Videos to prove. Room condition in general was poor. Breakfast was going to be in a box in fridge in the morning, eventually agreed to b my take a hot breakfast roll.

Hidden gem with great food

Despite some minor challenges with sorting our check-in, Kordian (B&B owner/manager) more than made up for it with his warm & friendly welcome and making us feel right at home. The room was clean and very comfortable and the fry up in a bap for breakfast was impressive! Thanks for making our trip that bit more fun : )

4/10 Fair

The bed was comfortable, I enjoyed the pub on the Wednesday night, and breakfast on the first morning was excellent. Unfortunately though... The pub isn't open Monday & Tuesday so I was unable to get an evening meal on the first night There was no breakfast provided on the second morning. I stood around in the breakfast area for 20 minutes (at the same time as I had breakfast the first morning), rang the service bell several times, but there was no one there. I had to go to work without breakfast. The WiFi doesn't reach the rooms The TV had no signal The blind did not work The room was so small you can't open the wardrobe door fully Only 3 coat hangers in wardrobe. The shower is not effective, water just dribbles out.
