Parking easy and welcoming staff. I found the pillows on the bed really uncomfortably and firm. The pillow case was like sand paper I never right reviews but this needed a mention. The tv remote also hardly worked and you have to operate at uncomfortable angles.

What can I say.The negatives.Courtyard untidy on arrival 2 staff outside smoking,one had feet on the table.In the Nelson Suite large but drab miss match furniture room stifling broken sash cord on only window managed to force open used book to prop open,kettle lead too short had to place kettle on floor stale water in coffee machine no bath robes in room as advertised ironing board inadequate Bed creaking lumpy and pillow cases tatty with the stuffing coming out shower inadequate no pressure Asked for another room,none available booked evening meal no pie or steak available my sausage and mash arrived cold with congealed gravy and broccoli spears to break your teeth on sent food back waiter admitted there were issues,dead right there,Breakfast well !!! Milk jug filthy,no hot water urn,no orange juice,no fruits,yogurts if you don’t like coco pops you are stuffed,asked for cornflakes and more orange juice which they didn’t have the bacon could be used to make a saddle,consequently cancelled breakfast following day and had dinner at the White Hart at Roydon first class which is more than I can say for the Scole inn.Atrocious place and I would not recommend to anyone under any circumstances,not the luxury stay as we we led to believe it would be,We were glad to leave.,Oh and housekeeping was non existent dust all over the place,second day didn’t tuck in bottom bed sheet or clean toilet shower gel dispenser left empty
Hobbits ironing board

Lovely place, needs some fine tuning

Lovely building, great staff and great breakfast but a little bit more attention to detail required. We had a lovely room, but arrived slightly early and were told under no circumstance could be check in early, even though the room was ready, without paying a £10 an hour early check in charge. Suddenly an extra £20, thankfully the room was very nice, and pretty clean but could have done with some attention, the bathroom door wouldn't stay closed without something up against it. Next morning there were no side plates for toast, salt on the tables but no pepper, there were two young ladies/girls waitressing, one seemed rushed of her feet, the other seemed to not be doing much, whoever is managing staff needs to just give the staff a little bit more training, basics, like put out the salt and pepper, put out side plates, give out cups and saucers, or mugs, just a mug would have been fine. Overall a great stay but needs a bit of fine tuning.

Beautiful old Inn

Staff were friendly. Beautiful old Inn. Cobwebs about the place. Coffee at breakfast was luke warm and not a filled cup. All the side plates in the breakfast room had a chip in them. Food was good. A light needs putting on the corner of the spiral stairs going up to rooms 18&19. Room 19 needs a backed chair placed in the room. 2 could be placed by the window. Only had bed to sit upon to read the paper, but we needed back support.
