I have titled my review, call it a day, because that (in my opinion) is what the owner of this establishment should do. People are turning up to this place expecting to stay in a idyllic country retreat judging by the photo in the ad. dont be fooled. the whole place is in need of a major structural and cosmetic overall. the place is stuck in the seventies, (early seventies). my wife and i stayed there in mid july 2011. from the moment we arrived we were greated with the strong smell of damp and decay throughout the hotel. the double room we were shown to was no better with, old brown wall paper on the walls AND doors, the whole feel of the place was dirty and damp and the bathroom was in the same state. the lights in the room were not working properly (1 bulb working out of 5 on the ceiling cluster) the tv was not working. the list goes on. we were to stay for four nights as it was late when we arrived we stayed the one night and left without breakfast.
in my opinion the owner should call it a day until this place is of a far better standard .
