The hotel is beautifully located, relaxing and comfortable and the owners very welcoming. A table was booked for us at a lovely restaurant within walking distance, which we appreciated. We will definitely visit again. |

For a relaxing break this was perfect. The room had a superb view out to the moor and was very comfortable. The breakfast really set us up for the day and the afternoon tea and cake was a lovely touch and much appreciated after a day out. We were looked after from the minute we arrived and were made to feel at home. |
