The pub was old and very attractive and the food was great. The room was querky but clean and everything worked. Out stay was spoiled by a very uncomfortable mattress.

Don't come here if you are in a hurry

Functional rather than cosy room. Problem was 75 minute wait after ordering for evening meal and over 30 minutes for breakfast.

Good location, convenient for local transport. Good food available in the evening. Basic cooked breakfast - with no cereal, fruit or other things to enhance it - and it took ages. If you are in a hurry, the wait for cooked breakfast is bad news. It was cooked to order (which is good) but took longer than you would ever expect.

The room is basic and you get what you pay for…. The shower was weak and cold … had to run sink water for 5 minutes to get it hot after giving up on shower after 10 minutes trying to get a bearable temp. When breakfast slot is only 8 til 9 am this is important stuff people!!.However, staff were lovely and evening meal was excellent value and very well presented . Would have liked a choice of brown or white toast for breakfast and to be told what options there are as there is no menu … cooked breakfast is rather assumed to be your preference

The Bent Arms Sept 2024

Recently stayed at the bent arms. Finding the hotel was relatively easy. Parking was tricky due to the busy restruant downstairs but opened up later on. The room looked ok from a distance, but apon looking around the room there was several issues. The main issues including the vent fan in the bathroom was not working which was causing mould on the walls, the room had several cobwebbs of which included a live spider (removed) and also the windows was not cleaned. The bed was reasonable and the sheets where clean.

Very attractive village. Hotel reasonably priced considering the area. Staff friendly and efficient. A few minor negatives - the shower space quite constricted but with plenty of hot water, bedside lights much too dim to allow reading in bed. Food good quality and quantity.
