Very basic, not value for money

Rooms are like little chalets, very basic. Cleanliness in general is good but lack of attention to detail, major cobwebs behind door, dirty pillow case left on top of toilet cistern. Shower pressure appalling.

Lovely country pub with great food. Rooms were detatched from main building were nice. Staff very friendly and helpful. I was leaving early next morning before breakfast was being served so they made me a packed breakfast the night before which was a nixe touch.

Great food, charming but needs some TLC

Fantastic pub with great food and great staff. We were late and called to ask when food stopped, were told we'd definitely get fed. Arrived,checked in and put our bags in the room, then went for food.Scampi and a Burger, both were very tasty and big portions. Noticed a few spider webs in our room but nothing major, we were in the countryside and the windows were open. Next morning we notice a few smaller cleaning issues, ring on bedside table, that just wiped off and a few older cobwebs and dust, but nothing to complain about, linen was clean and beds were comfy. Shower, water pressure was low, but usable, so we mentioned this when we went down for breakfast, which on the first say was cooked to order, great poached eggs and lovely bacon, sausage, tomato, mushroom and beans, all really good quality. Went out for the day, came back late. Second morning, shower was unusable, water pressure was almost non-existent, then we noticed there was no more loo roll, so I went and got some and queried why there wasn't any, if you want your room refreshing you must ask, we didn't know this. Breakfast day2: buffet, same ingredients but no where near as good, dried out fried egg, hard beans, soggy bacon, no glasses. It seemed very chaotic, odd as it was the same staff. Mentioned water pressure, a guy came over had a look, was very apologetic. A lovely place with lots of potential, but needs some proper TLC. I would go back for pub food, but would want a cleaner room and working shower.
