Short break at the Wheatsheaf.
Had a lovely three night stay at the Wheatsheaf. Michael and Jo were always there and most helpful. Our room (no1) was upstairs and had a large settee in and still lots of space. We ate in the restaurant two nights and the food was delicious.

We had a fantastic stay, the hotel was immaculate, the staff were so friendly and the service and food at both dinner and breakfast was just perfection. Best omelette I’ve ever had! There were some lovely touches in the room, the bottled water and delicious homemade shortbread. When travelling to borders for business in future I would absolutely endeavour to stay here again.
