Clean and comfortable and close to shops and service station. Pool onsite but spa not operational which was a bit disappointing. Helpful staff.

Amazing stay, love the owners dog Sunday who is the resident pet for everyone who stays. Very clean and welcoming. Spacious and has all amenities from stove top, fridge, microwave and toasters... so if you dont want to hunt for dinner on the main street you can cook for your own (warning Sunday will come visit you for a sneaky snack)

The property is old and mutton dressed up as lamb . Very poor WiFi could not even use it only 1 bar and speed rating would not even connect. Didn’t supply any fresh milk and was told if we wanted milk for our morning coffee needed to walk down to the local shops and buy our own . The shower was very slippery and no slip mat was provided very dangerous as my wife is partially disabled and had problems stepping into it . The only positive we have for the place was the warm blanket on the bed otherwise it has been the worst place we have stayed so far

Impeccably clean, if somewhat quaint small motel in the north. Minimal sound or thermal insulation, a good heater is bolted to the wall in the kitchen/lounge area but not the bedroom. In mid July that could be a problem. Traffic noise from 5am so you won’t need an alarm clock. Good well appointed kitchenette and bathroom. A small column heater to take the chill from the bedroom would be ideal. Otherwise good for its price class and location.

Clean, friendly and accommodating.

I stay at this location every year for a night or 2 when visiting family who live a short walk away. The owners are always friendly and have often gone above and beyond. They provide a satisfactory and convenient location, supplying the basics needed and recommend for families, especially if needing privacy.
