Lovely pub and room was perfect for our stay. Nice touches with dressing gown and slippers .However bathroom was tired. Paper peeling off ceiling. Shower flooding taps loose. And you can't make a proper cup of tea with hot water from a coffee machine. Such a shame as teapig teabags too.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Food was excellent. The room was called a Snug and "Snug" it certainly was. Just about ok for 1 or 2 nights but for longer stays get a bigger room.

Great stay on a tour around parts of the UK. The hotel was quiet even though I was expecting some traffic noise at night. All the staff were friendly and welcoming, especially the lady working the breakfast room in the morning. Breakfast was super with a nice variety of choices and a very satisfying full English. Toast was super. Thanks for a great stay.

This was such an incredible place to stay! The staff was so nice and accommodating! The rooms were super clean and very quaint. Robes and slippers everything you need. The breakfast in the morning was great, one of the best omelets I’ve had, and our waitress was the sweetest! We will definitely be coming back!

Good location, pretty room with Dyson fan and nespresso coffee. Great breakfast with friendly staff. We had a room to accommodate our 14 year old but the spare bed set up kept collapsing on her so she slept on the floor. Glad we were only there for one night. Would have mentioned to staff but no one around to check out to.
