8/10 Good
"Itโ€™s a hotel over a pub/restaurant. Rooms are old fashioned but clean. Bed was comfortable and shower worked just fine. Staff were helpful and friendly. Parking was on site and there was always a space available despite it being open to visitors. Beautiful view from the garden over the lake. Didnโ€™t sample the breakfast as there was a small area to pick your food after which you walked over to the separate main dining area. Dinner was average."
