Two nights at The White Horse

Great 2 night stay. Lovely room with a little terrace outside. We were given a family accommodations which had a double bed in one room and twin in another . Tea, coffee and water were provided. Friendly staff and decent food. Breakfast was great. Locally sourced food. If you are going to a wedding in the area, book a taxi well in advance. We would certainly go back.

The White Horse was a very comfortable place to stay with pleasant hosts. We were there for a 1 night stay while visiting friends in the area. Our room was large and nicely decorated with a comfy bed and good shower. Set in a pretty and quiet spot tucked away behind the pub with parking close by. We had everything we needed including a fan for the warm weather and the breakfast provided was good too. We would definitely return in future if needing accommodation in the area. Thank you!

Well kept pub with separate accommodation block. The room was large, comfortable, exceptionally clean and in really good repair. The pub itself is also very pleasant, with a good menu and choice of beer. The whole experience made better by the very friendly, helpful staff.

This is a great little find! Accommodation is at the rear of the pub, so would not get disturbed by people leaving pub. I was in room 4, great size, with a sofa in room with a desk and chair. Ensuite was huge (just shower). Nice large cups for tea/coffee. Bed was comfortable. Free parking. Very quiet.
