6/10 Good

Couldn’t book in until 5pm which I think is quite late and had to be out by 10am. Room was far too hot even with the window open. No instructions in the room whatsoever regarding meals or checkout. Apparently breakfast had to be pre-ordered the day before at the bar so on the first morning when we went down for breakfast we waited 15 mins along with another guest for someone to come and were lead into the breakfast room via the kitchen. Service was slow. We left our breakfast details on the bar for the 2nd day but when we got there everywhere was locked up. We tried the mobile number on the door but know-body answered Really unorganised. The breakfast forms should have been in our room and there should have been a box for guests to put them into. Then when we came to leave there were no instructions of what to do with the room keys and there wasn’t anyone there to ask. Once again a box to deposit keys into is required. Such a shame -this hotel was a 5min drive from our sons home but we won’t be returning.

The owner was very welcoming and couldn't do enough for me. Room was comfortable and more than enough size for my needs. Got a bit confused with the TV as I couldn't get life tv but many apps were there to stream programs and films. Cooked breakfast was excellent.

4/10 Fair

The room was good, clean and just what we expected. When we arrived, mid afternoon, we were told that the pub was closing for a couple of hours. The restaurant side wasnt serving food either! We managed to book food at a pub about a mile away. So insted of just spending the afternoon and evening in one place we had to go to another pub to eat and drink. The pub and restaurant looked good of what we saw, so was a bit baffling why it wasnt opened. If we knew that before hand we wouldnt have booked to stay there. Very disappointed that we were not notified of this. It wasn't on the site we booked from.

8/10 Very Good

This is a nice little country pub in a village. We had a very small room but that was because I requested a room with shower only (ie not over a bathtub) The room was compact, but clean and comfortable. A mirror in a different place (not behind tv) would have been helpful for using the hairdryer! Breakfast was freshly cooked but early (7am - 8am) a bit too early for us, so we had to sit around for an hour or so before leaving, and we’re still too early for our appointment later. They say they don’t serve meals on Mondays and Tuesdays so we ate elsewhere before arriving, but Nigel said they do cook for B&B guests.

Room v small (comfort double) but fine for single traveller. Breakfast was really nice, served up by a good front of house host. A bit of a remote location and pub closes at 930pm.

Excellent Village Pub
Lovely and quiet friendly village pub Very clean but would have liked a chair in the room to sit on although in all fairness there probably wouldn’t have been enough room for one Will definitely stay again if I am in the area Unfortunately did not have breakfast as I had to leave early but based on everything else I am sure it would have been excellent Highly recommend this place

Lovely friendly hotel / pub / restaurant. Lovely comfortable room, lovely breakfast free parking would not hesitate in rebooking. Definitely a safe bet. Only negative comment both extractor fan and kettle (inside) need a clean did not want to mention in person. Just making a comment for the owners however a lovely stay overall.

comfortable room and nice service but disappointing menu which we thought expensive for the area, and wifi service is not possible. also disappointing about late check in and early check out times with breakfast served latest at 9 on a Sunday.

Friendly pub stay
Friendly bar staff and good atmosphere in bar/restaurant. Food was excellent. The room was spotlessly clean, small but comfortable. Power shower gave good pressure.

Cosy pub with a decent breakfast
Service was very good, I was welcomed by the owner and made to feel welcome. I was shown to my room and given info on the heating, breakfast times etc. Breakfast was served by a polite and pleasant lady, the breakfast itself was very nice (I opted for the traditional English). Plenty of parking available. The room itself was comfortable. Bathroom functional although if I was being overly critical I would say it could benefit from a bit of an update. Only stayed for one night but they left a good enough impression for me to write a review. A*
