Millers Rest is in a beautiful part of the world. It is large and airy but it could do with an update. The furniture was not very comfortable and the dining room chairs need re stuffing, when you sit on them you sink into the middle. The bathroom off of the main bedroom definitely needs redoing it felt quite grubby and there was no towel rails only the radiator, or shelves apart from the one over the sink to put all of your toiletries on. On the positive side you were greeted with a lovely cake and tea on arrival.
