"Excellent in every way."
Everything about the Pig of Lead made you feel welcome. My husband was on a stone carving course and I needed to finish writing a book. We could not have found a more perfect place to stay.… Read more

Likes:
Homely, warm, and friendly atmosphere. Food was excellent, the beds really comfortable, and the room was spacious. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. As an asthmatic no feathers pillows were a bonus.
Dislikes:
Absolutely nothing. I could not fault our stay and would not hesitate to recommend it to others and would certainly stay there again.

Likes:
The breakfast was fab, rooms were quirky and traditional, whilst still modern enough (good showers, large digital tv with dvd player etc) to facilitate us! There was a pub in walking distance too!
Dislikes:
Lack of Wifi / telephone signal was the only negative for my other half, though this did not bother me!
Response from Pig of Lead:
Very pleased you enjoyed your stay.We do appreciate the problem with mobile reception but we are more than happy for you to use our landline which is free to any other landline. Also we do have free wi fi. Wish you had asked. We must make it clearer in the house to guests that it is available as well as on our website. Sorry about that. Once again glad you had a great stay.
