Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Excellent quality of dinner and breakfast food. Very quick service. Ideal location for exploring eastern LD . Impressed that this remote inn is in a bus route.
Negative: If we stayed again we would request a larger room with a better view. Room 11 overlooks the side road and a scrap van The bar area can get very nousy, but that is due to its popularity.
Summary: A good find for food and accommodation. We will certainly recommend it and look forward to returning
