The dining room serves a variety of seasonal dishes making use of local meat, fish and game. The informal Harness Room bar provides a relaxing environment in which to enjoy cask ales, cocktails or wines. We booked last minute because our boat trip back from Newcastle was cancelled due to storm: it was the only reasonably priced room we could find in the area and we were pleasantly surprised on our arrival. The hotel is situated in a small village with a few small shops close by. The room was clean and comfortable, and the area was quiet. The room felt cold at first when we dropped off our things, but was nicely warm by the time we got back in the evening. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom modern and clean. At the ground floor is a large restaurant/bar where guests can grab a meal/drink. The restaurant and bar seemed to be well visited by travelers and locals alike. The meals were very tasty and promptly brought, plenty of choice. The restaurant is set up a bit like a maze, so most tables have some privacy. The location was beautifully decorated for Christmas, and it has fireplaces where one can sit with a cup of coffee or another drink for a chat. Really very inviting.
