“The riverside location is truly a draw, offering delightful views and a peaceful ambiance, complemented by undeniably friendly staff who make a genuine effort to ensure a comfortable stay. Meals here are a highlight, particularly the highly regarded lamb and Sunday roast, though the restaurant can get busy so booking ahead is advised. While the bar area shows its age, it retains a cosy charm, and the overall value, especially with breakfast included, is quite compelling.”
