The noise from the road was constant all night. Very broken sleep. Room was small but fine, shower a bit weak. For the price it was fine but I would not stay again due to the noise from the road.

Lovely cosy room, fab food!

A lovely village pub, nice and cosy rooms, we stayed at the back of the pub and room was lovely and quiet. Nice and warm. We ate in the restaurant for our evening meal, food was delicious and service was superb! We will definitely be retuning when we get our next child free evening.

We'd rate extra stars if we could!

Our stay was beyond amazing. The room was so homely and cosy, we loved it. We had an evening meal and a breakfast, the food was incredible. The staff at dinner and breakfast were so kind and welcoming, professional, completely faultless. The staff made the stay that much more special, so thank you. We cant wait to stay again.

Didn't dine in for dinner as we were in a rush but the dining area looked fantastic and the menu looked great. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Homely

Great little pub/inn off the A12, room was lovely, bathroom needs a bit of an update but functional and clean. Homemade biscuits 😋 a delight. I had a superior room and loved having a espresso machine for my morning brew. Food in general was fab from my burger 6oz (think chef forgot the scales, it was massive) to my mexican chicken & Avocado on 2nd night, portions great size, service i couldn't fault, all team, smiley, happy peeps.

Poor nights sleep

All was good apart from the bed being 2 feet to short and extremely soft which is no good for people with minor back issues. Very noisy road with no deflection of sound till after works traffics gone , I’d use again but would want a room that does not back onto the road

My only issue was bedroom size and noise from garden on my windows but I didn’t stay long enough to rate or notice anything bad. Location is very good and easy to access. Didn’t have time to try the meals but smelled delicious and atmosphere seemed very inviting 🙏

Shower problems

The beds were very comfy and the room was spotless Food was pricey but worth every penny very delicious, only problem I would say is that I felt a bit unsafe in the shower no hand rails to hold on to and no non slip mat in the shower plus no bath handles to get out of shower and no mat on the floor when you step out of the shower

A warm welcome on our arrival and was checked in quickly and escorted to our room. Staff were terrific, dinner plentiful, warm ambience and fairly busy. The room is small but fine for one night and price. The only thing was the headboard in room 2 was flaking off. Such an easy fix but very visible when you first walk in - an impression that makes you think what else is wrong here. Also a couple of cleaning products left in room. Again, not a big deal, but careless. Would recommend to stay for a night or two but fix the obvious.
