Guests are welcomed in the lobby. Guests can enjoy a drink at the bar and dine in the restaurant. Internet access and a car park are also offered. The comfortable bedrooms each include a telephone, daily housekeeping service, a TV and tea/coffee making facilities. All are en suite with a shower and bathtub. A double bed, radio, Internet access and an ironing set also come as standard. Guests are asked to note that the bedrooms are affected by noise from the bars at weekends so for guests looking for a quiet peaceful country retreat and an early night, then this is definitely not the place to be! The hotel specialises in live music nights and karaoke nights. It also shows all major sporting events, including The Premiership, UEFA Champions League and international rugby, on the big-screen plasma TVs in the bars. The restaurant specialises in good simple English food. The bar also serves delicious meals, together with traditional ales.
