Lovely country pub, with easily accessible rooms with motel-style parking. Only negative with our room (7) was the rain shower with a silly design, no chance of a shower without getting your hair wet - not always ideal for ladies! But nice with a walk-in shower! The cooked breakfast was great.

First time in the area, what a pleasant surprise. Convenient room, a little tired around the edges but didn't detract from the stay. Breakfast very tasty. Certainly on the list of places to explore further.

Weekend stay

Have stayed a few times over the years, the room was nice, but could do with a make over, and the shower needs something doing with it, it isn't a walk in shower, more like a climb in. Food in the restaurant was delicious, even though there wasn't a big choice, it was all delicious, the chef even made fresh apple sauce for one of the party. Hopefully next time we stay, we will see a difference min the room

New owners taken over don't be fooled by reviews!

Stay many places always about for business. Booked this short notice on the reviews being 8.5. I didn't experience 8.5 service! On arrival place fully locked up, sign on the door, list of names, room numbers and keys in each door. Help yourself attitude to the letter and list. I had room 7. Cleanish but a strong damp musty smell. Damp in the walls I suspect, carpet rotting or breaking up. Bit run down in places generally. I paid extra £10 a morning for breakfast. No where near worth the money, terrible service at breakfast as well. Evening meal is ok but not much choice, expect to have something with chips! Bed was comfortable seemed clean and the location means it's quiet here. Those being the main bonus to this stay. Free parking free WiFi also a bonus. When I mentioned my experience I was told they've just been taken over. All prior reviews are for the previous owners / business operator. So beaware things could get better or be just as bad. Look at my photos as proof

Not recommended if you are travelling on business

The room was cold and somewhat dated. Could not run a full bath as not enough hot water, no shower to use as an alternative. I was a solo traveller in a double room so no way could two people have had a bath. WiFi was virtually non existent and no phone signal at all so a poor location if you are on business. On a positive the staff were grand the breakfast was okay

The pub picture looks inviting and the price was afordable. The bathroom was pretty basic and mouldy. The bed was ok but nothing like standard hotels. That said the price was a bit cheaper. Everything else was good and the staff were very helpful
