Its location, handy to the park and ride, balances countryside quiet with easy access to the town's bustle, while the beer garden whispers of relaxed evenings after a day exploring the moors; in my view, it's a solid choice for a family seeking character.”

Fantastic Stay with Great Views

The room had a sitting area with a TV downstairs and a bedroom upstairs. The views from the bar and restaurant were wonderful with plenty of outside seating. I found the staff very cute and helpful.
The room did not have a window that opened. Some shade in the outdoor seating area would have also been nice for sunny days. I would have appreciated the option for fresh air.
