The room was really nice, with soft beds and with a ensuite that had a great shower and bathroom with a lot of accessibility features.Main problem is, your in the middle of nowhere so you barely get a network connection. And for us the Internet had been down for the last 10 days, so made it extra hard to plan our holiday.The service was great though, the breakfast was prompt and filling.Also all the pubs in the town all close their kitchens at 8pm, so you won't be able to get a late dinner.

Great place to stop for a couple of nights. Lovely garden, but rooms are on the smaller side. Staff were amazing. Small village a short walk away with a pub

Spent 2 nights here over the weekend. It's a good base to then explore the area. We stayed in the Blue Lagoon room which was right for our budget. …

We received a very warm welcome from Margaret on our arrival and throughout our stay. She offered useful local recommendations for eating out (top tip is the Brynn Arms). Our room was traditionally furnished and comfortable.  …
