Excellent hotel on NC500 route. Easily parked to rear of property. Helpful staff with big clean rooms and competitively priced dinner menu in restaurant. Breakfast was perfect to set us up for the days onward travel. We stayed in room 18 which was right next to the road on the ground floor. Was honestly a little noisy with traffic initially but settled in evening and we slept ok. Suggestions: King sized beds would be a good improvement as room is big enough. We were awoken by a group loudly chatting while waiting for a coach pickup outside our window at 7am, so would suggest hotel put a sign on window just asking anyone waiting to be mindful of customers sleeping.

Second time staying here in the last 7 months and I think this place is top notch. From the extremely helpful and friendly staff, to the incredible breakfasts included with our room and the excellent dinners we purchased in the evenings, to the superb communication by hotel staff, and the clean and comfortable rooms…I will certainly be back in the future. I’d love to see whoever is running this business teach these principles of professionalism and attention to detail to larger chains because they just get it! Eric Slivoskey

Dinner was good, breakfast was very good. Bathroom very spacious with excellent shower. Unfortunately there were no shelves for any toiletries. Staff were very attentive and friendly. My only criticism is that we paid for a superior room, but it didn’t feel or look superior. It was on the ground floor with two windows facing Main Street, so the blinds were closed to avoid people looking in. For a standard room that would have been ok, but not for a superior room. It was also very small: there was a gap of 4inches between bedpost and chair to get to the other side of the bed. A 10.5 tog duvet and unable to open any windows also meant that we were too hot to sleep… Due to the location of the hotel and an excellent breakfast we will be coming back..

Basic hotel, nothing special. Okay for an overnight stay. Had a bad smell in the room, possibly coming from bathroom. Wifi didn't connect either. I'm guessing not in range.
