Good location overall but on a very noisy road, especially as the trucks were passing in the morning. Staff is lovely and helpful. Beds in room 10 were terribly uncomfortable. The room was quite hot and there were no available fans for any of the nights we were there. Because the road was so noisy, we could not leave the windows open once traffic started.

Ok and good overnight stop but needs an upgrade.
Check in very good. Room fairly spacoius and bathroom large. Mattress was terrible. New one required. Bathroom needed towel rails and a small table to put toiletries on. Breakfast was very good with quick and friendly service with good choice of food although did not really accommodate for gluten free requirements. Brolly Inn next door to service station.

Brilliant overnight stop point
Brilliant overnight stop point, service, room and food was perfect. Had a nice walk after our lovely dinner but it is a bit tired, not something that bothers us as everything was clean and we received a warm welcome when we arrived. Breakfast was excellent.

Large, clean room. Close to A9 road but that didn't bother us. Bed could have been more comfortable but overall we liked our stay there. Bathroom taps very difficult to turn and could do with replacing. Good value with cooked breakfast included.

The rooms were very small and found it hard to find space for our bags. The rooms need updating and mattress wasn’t comfortable. The shower was good. The room was also too warm. Couldn’t sleep for heat in rooms, the rest of our party felt the same. The meal at night was good and breakfast good. The staff were lovely. For the price it was good.

Good stay.
The staff were really so friendly particularly the man who checked us in - think maybe the owner. Place was spotlessly clean and the breakfast was fresh and delicious. Only feedback point would be that one of the beds in room 9 was extremely soft and not to my personal liking but maybe that's just me. Would both recommend and stay again

Excellent value for money
Not much to say here except it’s excellent value for money and suitable for a stop off from a long journey. It’s not 5 star but it doesn’t claim to be, and it is excellent value. The greeting on arrival was great and bright. I came down for dinner as there is not much around and it’s on the main dual road, the food was very quickly prepared but was nice. Service in the evening was fine but nothing to write home about but the drink selection was poor but I guess it’s more a cafe being a bistro than a bar so I didn’t mind. I would stay again as I did sleep well and it’s cost effective, it was a last minute booking and was suitable
