Lovely stay

Really lovely comfortable room. Best air con/heating system ive encountered in a hotel ...it cooled room down quickly and quietly and equally heated it up the same. Room was decorated well and service was great. The only reason i have given less stars for comfort was the beds - I'm sure a lot of people would love them but i found them too hard.

Well designed, well kept clean rooms however a little small room size particularly the price point. Some of the other rooms appeared bigger but ours was tight particularly given that there was no storage space so luggage had to put around the room. At £80 it would be excellent at £140 it is too expensive (this didnt include breakfast).

Fab pub with rooms - loved it

Gorgeous little hotel in the countryside, stayed due to being at a wedding close by but would visit again. Great food and service, lovely comfortable rooms. The pub also has a lovely big beer garden for when the weather is nice. Loved our garden room, having 2 seats and a little space to sit outside was excellent. Only negative is no fridge in the room.

Friendly, efficient and cosy

Arrived after a long drive to a friendly and efficient welcome. I was shown to my room and what a lovely cosy place it was. Evening in the bar area was peaceful and warm with friendly and efficient service again. There was a little noise overnight but I noticed ear plugs were provided in the room. All in all a great stay

Overnight visit

Very clean and comfortable accommodation. We had a standard double (only small issue is that particular room double bed is on the small side so someone of 6ft + might have an issue). Staff very welcoming and friendly but also professional. Food - all meals the food was excellent quality. Fresh and very well cooked - we had dinner, breakfast and Sunday lunch and was consistently good.
