Heavy traffic noise from main A road immediately outside, although constant only at rush-hour, and not so bad at night. Double glazing helped but the hot summer weather meant that even with the supplied fan the window had to remain open. Otherwise good value for money, a comfortable stay and a good base for the many local attractions.

I was made very welcome at the Kestral Inn. The room was clean and bright, the views were great! It was useful that evening meals were available as there was nothing else nearby. As the pub isn't open at present it was very quiet.

Quiet retreat

Very accomodating hosts,Richard and Fiona, Lovely pub . I had a meal there the first night which was excellent . The pub/restaurant is only open weekends so if you don't like solitude this may not be the place for you. Breakfast was superb. Perhaps the towels could be upgraded (quite small)but that would be my only comment.
