fantastic hostcomfortable bedprivacy issue
Richard was a fantastic host, he provided detailed information for our stay. the fingerprint room was clean and cosy. The bed was big, comfortable, and gave us an amazing night's sleep.
i found it a bit of a privacy issue when the bedroom window was opened while i was away, and i was told that no one had opened it. i felt it a little invasive, honestly.

Breakfast included various options. I enjoyed the location of the hotel, close to the town center. The garden had interesting wildlife. Richard was helpful, and not intrusive. I like the bathrobes in the bedroom.
The shower was too hot. I could not adjust the temperature, so I did not take a shower. The bedroom window was open after I was out. The owner told me that no one had opened it, but I know it had been opened.

helpful hostlocal attractiondelicious oatcakesrailway station
richard was a great host and provided very useful information on local attractions. the oatcakes at breakfast was lovely. the hotel has its own carpark plus parking on the roadside. the railway station is only two minutes away. the sherpa bus goes to swallow falls and snowdonia.
the shower was very hot and i couldnt adjust it properly. i felt it was a minor invasion of privacy when the bedroom window seemed to have been opened while i was away.
