Exceptional service. I had to leave at stupid o clock and the owner very kindly made my wife and I some food to go the night before. The dinner was wonderful and such a quaint little place. Would definitely recommend

Lovely people and location
The room we were staying in was freezing cold on arrival. The inside of the pub when we were eating was cold too.
