The Grove is a quality guest house (AA 4 star rated) run with the aim of being a ‘home from home’. It consists of 10 ensuite bedrooms, all individually decorated. Each room has a TV, hair-dryer, plus tea and coffee making facilities.
Paul Barrett is the Owner, and has extensive experience in the hospitality and catering industry including working with top hotels and restaurants, but now dedicates his time to Grove House.
One of the downstairs bedrooms is adapted for wheelchair access, and we also have a family bedroom with a separate sleeping area for children over 5.
Delicious home cooked breakfasts and evening meals, using fresh local produce are served daily in a bright and airy restaurant. The licenced bar, though small and cosy, offers local beer and a selection of wines and spirits.
A comfortable lounge is available for guests to relax in, and is popular in the evenings for a pre dinner drink, or an after dinner coffee and brandy.
We have 10 en suite bedrooms, all individually decorated. One room is adapted for wheelchair use, and we also have a family room that includes bunk beds in a separate area to the main bedroom. Extra beds are available on request. We welcome children over the age of 5.
