We had a nice time at the Pecking Mill. It was clean, the room was extra large, with a double bed and two single beds. The breakfast was cook nicely and was hot. There were cereals, yogurts, toast, orange juice and hot drinks. A lovely place to stay.

Beng so close the the arena up the road it is very convenient.
I had the a single room which, for the price, is fine. It is clean, comfortable, with all the basic necessities.
Breakfast was delicious and there is a varied menu for evening meals.

Highly recommended staying here. The man who runs it is extremely pleasant and approachable. Food is amazing. Only down fall was the cleanliness of dishes. Bed was extremely comfy and had a great night sleep.
