Breakfast was not as good as expected. My breakfast was served with a dried up fried egg with bits of egg shell. That said overall a pleasant stay good value for money.

Disappointing
I found the room very nice. However it was not particularly clean. The shiwer head leaked badly and i had to refit the toilet seat. Breakfast was disappointing. The tables were sticky from the evening before and the eating experience was very disappointing. There is absolutely no way that i would stay in this place again.

It was a good stop over place for us, spacious, clean and quiet rooms, with a great pub to boot. Pet friendly, and while we didn’t have the dog, as we were just passing through, there are great walking places in the area. Good food and friendly service… exactly what we were looking for! Thanks to the Ancient Mariner for keeping the good old local pub tradition, welcoming us, and of course well fed and sheltered for the night.
