The Lake Inn is expensive for what it offers. There are no elevators or room service and the internet is unreliable. A pub next door offers pizza and fast food.

Room was exceptionally clean and staff were friendly and polite to deal with. Location was ideal for us to walk into town and around the lake. We would and will happily stay again next time we are in the area.
