A great stay
A really nice overnight stay at The Blacksmiths Arms. We received a friendly welcome and was shown to our room. Bed was really comfortable and the bathroom was lovely and clean with the whitest fluffiest towels! Breakfast was amazing! Would definitely recommend!

This place was a great find—a true gem. The rooms were beautiful, clean, and quiet. The food was delicious, featuring a Jamaican-inspired menu crafted by the wonderful hosts, Jazz and Drixie, who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The rum punch was delightful, and the breakfast included one of the best English breakfasts we've ever tasted. It's definitely worth a visit, if not for an overnight stay, then at least to dine at the restaurant. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, making the experience even more memorable.

Friendly clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the gentle Caribbean atmosphere and were disappointed we did not stay long enough for an evening meal. The only downside is noise from the road, especially in the early morning
