Work stay.

A 1 night stay for work reasons. The pub and food are excellent with a good selection at a reasonable price. My room was comfortable but very cold due to the old leaking sash windows. All in all for the price it's ok for a 1 night stay.

Staff friendly but room tired

Did the job but won’t be returning. For example: 1) Electric shower with poor pressure and either boiling hot or lukewarm. 2) Basic bed with thin mattress. 3) No desk. 4) Music blaring from the pub bar until 10:30pm.

Good value hotel

One night business trip in August 22. Very warm friendly welcome at the bar, checked in and shown to the room, which is in an adjoining building behind the main pub. Room was large, as was the bathroom, and both were clean. The bathroom was a little tired and could do with updating but it was all in working order. Went to the bar for evening meal and got another warm friendly welcome, food and drinks were well priced and food was very good. Bed was comfortable, but no air conditioning or fan on a very warm night meant it was not the best nights sleep. Breakfast was a included and was ok, although nothing special and the service for this was pretty poor. Had to go and ask the waitress if I could order the food, was not given the choices that other people were offered, and generally she seemed uninterested in looking after the customers, very different from the other staff the night before. Overall a nice place and I will almost certainly stay there again.

Nice one night stay

Nice pub in the centre of a lovely village. check in and out quick and easy, plenty of parking onsite. There is a small co-op store opposite. Stayed in room 12 above the entrance to the pub which had the advantage of excellent wifi connection. Room was large and comfortable. It did seem to have a fly issue on arrival but once these were dealt with, no further problem. Evening meal was good and breakfast was excellent. All staff very friendly. Would definitely stay again if working in the area.
