We’ve been happily married for 25 years (somehow we’re still together — don’t ask us how!), and we’ve been running this cosy little spot since 2004. After 20 years in business, we definitely know what we’re doing — and many of our guests have become lifelong friends along the way.

Accommodation: Comfortable, well-equipped rooms with free Wi-Fi (wired and wireless), TV, tea and coffee making facilities, and soft carpeted floors — a cosy home away from home.

Parking: We offer limited free private parking on-site — and when we say “limited,” we mean if you arrive early, you’ll be fine. If you’re the last one in… well, there’s a public car park nearby (and yes, you’ll have to pay — sorry!).

Eco-Friendly: We also have charging points for electric cars for guests who drive sustainably.

Breakfast: Enjoy a hearty, freshly cooked Full English breakfast served every morning in our warm dining area.

Extras: A small, peaceful garden with BBQ facilities — perfect for relaxing on sunny days.
