Lovely staff and a nice room but the bathroom was freezing and the heating gets switched off overnight so the room was really cold first thing in the morning. Dinner was lovely and breakfast was OK. I would definitely stay again but perhaps not in winter as it was quite uncomfortable waking up cold (and I don’t struggle with cooler temperatures).
What a wonderful place, staff so friendly and the menu was pleasantly unusual. The room was very comfortable and very clean

This was our second stay and it didn’t disappoint. The friendly yet professional staff, the cleanliness of the place, the excellent dinner and breakfast all contributed to a lovely stay. It also helped that the parking was so convenient.
Easy parking. Warm and friendly reception and a warm, comfortable room.
Service in the bar/restaurant was exceptional.
Good beer, nice food and a very comfortable stay, Brilliant!
What a superb stay- the room was a good size with a large bathroom, the food menu was good and overall service was superb. I look forward to staying here again.
Absolutely first class, great welcome from staff and the food was excellent- well done Chef. Room was spotlessly clean, comfortable bed and plenty of space.
Great selection of beers and a food menu with plenty of choices.
Our third stay at the Three Horseshoes. We love this place, everything is perfect; rooms, food (amazing menu) and fabulous staff. So friendly. We would not stay anywhere else while visiting family locally.
It’s a lovely place with nice comfortable rooms, good service and excellent food. Also next to a field of curious cows… very sweet! A great stop over on the way north.
Super stay with excellent evening meal and a very large breakfast fast . The staff were friendly and service was great . Will stay again if in the area .
Wonderful place to stay, staff extremely helpful, dining was a delight, they have a very good chef, breakfast was included in the price!Very clean comfortable room
