We stayed here overnight as a way to break up a long journey. Firstly the lady behind the bar was lovely - really friendly as were the locals. It's a short walk into town/to sainsburys. However, the Ibiza sound tracks that went on til gone midnight was not so good. It was so loud, the floor in the bathroom vibrated. The WiFi didn't work, and the mixer tap shower predominantly ran cold. You couldn't deadlock the bedroom door so anyone with a key could come in. Subsequent to booking you're advised you have to pay an additional 10 for the dog (60 if you don't warn them you're bringing the dog!). Which if your dog is muddy or sleeps all over the bed may seem fair - ours slept by the door in his own bed and didn't budge and doesn't moult. The rooms could do with a clean - I had someone's mascara on my pillow. But honestly if you need sleep on a long journey it's somewhere to put your head!
