Liked: Room comfort
We stayed 2 nights at The Pirate inn. We arrived around 18:30 and the pub was already busy. The room was small with a double bed and en suite bathroom. The bed was reasonably comfortable but the pillows were very had. The room was clean tea and coffee making facilities were available. On the second night there was live music in the pub and this went on until quite late. We were down visiting relatives and only needed a bed for the 2 nights so completely adequate for our needs. The staff were friendly and the bar food was good.

Convenient high street location but with no parking, we found a spot on the roadside not far away but can imagine in peak season, this wouldn’t be an option and a public car park would be the choice. Friendly bar staff showed us to our room straight away, it was a pretty tiny double with not much room to move around the bed or in the ensuite, but cosy, clean and comfortable, with mini fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. Breakfast was provided in a cool bag with cereal, croissants, orange juice, milk etc. We were a little disappointed not to be eating in the pub but what we had was actually fine, just struggled with the space in which to get it prepared! Checked ourselves out with keys left in a box- no fuss. Not a huge choice of places to go for eve meal. The pub below was busy with quiz night and we headed off for pizza at a nearby restaurant.

Great value stay

The room was good but the shower was difficul to keep an even temperature. Parking was good. The dining experience was ok apart from the table should have been cleaned prior to us sitting down to eat. Which was a shame as the service and food was first class.

Very clean cabin, dog friendly but pay a bit extra. Shop and chip shop close by. Food also served in the pub but not breakfast. Can be noisy as pub puts on live music.

Liked: Room comfort
The room was quite large and very comfortable, with plenty of storage. It had a double bed and a single bed (we were in room 3). The steps up to the rooms were quite steep. There was used food in the fridge, which we mentioned to bar staff on a couple of occasions, but it was still not cleared during our stay.

Room was tidy with all the facilities you need, but even with a smaller double bed there was not much spare room. The WiFi was good - 85Mbps down & 60Mbps up. The bathroom unfortunately had the previous guest’s poo in the toilet, which was annoying but it flushed away easily. The bathroom door didn’t shut. Food in the restaurant was standard pub fare, but still very nice. No breakfast was available as staff were not on duty first thing.

Good for an overnight stay on a budget

Fairly basic, bed not too comfortable but perfectly good enough for our overnight stay. Staff friendly and helpful but evening meal not good. Overall, a low cost for the area so a good budget option.

Wouldn't stay again

Arrived only 10 minutes early but were made to wait in the bar. Led up to our room along a corridor and stairs loaded with vacuum cleaners and coats. Light only came on when you had reached the top which left you in pitch black. First impressions of the room were, oh dear. But it was clean. Room had a king sized bed and a single, again, clean. Mattress was very thin and uncomfortable. Bathroom has to be the smallest I've ever seen. Sink way too big, no room to dry yourself after a shower. Nice selection of tea and coffee but fridge had not been cleaned and had a puddle of milk in it.

Perfect weekend stay in Pod

Stayed in one of the pods for a weekend. Staff were very welcoming & helpful. Kitchen was about to close when we arrived, but they still served us a meal which was lovely. Pod was easy to access, spotlessly clean and tidy and had everything we needed.
