I love this hotel! My grandfather used to frequent this hotel and took me there a few times, but only once as an adult before he passed. So when, many many years later, I took my family to visit my grandmother, I actually stayed here. It's changed significantly over the years, but one thing that hasn't is the atmosphere, characters, but most importantly the memories.
The rooms upstairs are functional and comfortable but don't expect luxury! The rooms don't have bathrooms in them and if you're there on a Friday night like we were expect to here the jukebox in the pub pretty clearly. But do you know what? I couldn't care less about any of that. I loved it all. There's also quite a decent restaurant here now to, which just makes it an even better option.
This will always be my most favourite pub in the world because of my grandfather, but even taking off the rose-tinted glasses it's still probably the best place in this very small country town to have a beer, great meal, and a good nights sleep (once the music stops!).
