If you’re in the area, stay here, without a doubt

We had a wonderful stay at The Barrel inn. They were accommodating to our potential late arrival, the room was spotless, cosy and fresh. The amazing view at sunset was stunning and although we were too late to eat dinner there, the breakfast was delicious. We had a brilliant night sleep and great hot showers the following morning. This was a recommendation from a friend and so worth it, we’ll definitely be back.

Lovely place to stay

So nice to have somewhere to eat and stay that doesn't allow dogs. Husband has allergies and it is becoming more difficult to find places that are dog free. Room was excellent and spacious. Evening meal was perfect and a very good breakfast. Wonderful views. Perfect place to stay.

We stayed during a major snowstorm that shut down the roads and left the Inn under-staffed: but the food was still excellent, the service was wonderful, and the staff went out of their way to ensure we had an excellent stay, The chef is brilliant and the owners are both very friendly and very helpful. An excellent experience despite the adverse weather conditions.

A real treat.

I had a lovely weekend at The Barrel Inn. The room was spacious, clean and well appointed. The food both at breakfast and in the evening was delightful. The staff were welcoming, which as a single traveler, is always appreciated. The location was ideal for walking with spectacular views. I recommend this establishment without reservation and will definitely return.
