A comfortable but not lavish inn in a quiet rural setting with very friendly staff and reasonable food, a stone's throw from a lovely parish church.

Amazing location, very quiet and just what I needed after a hard days work. The staff are fantastic, the foods even better. Lots of local drinks available, I was very pleased I chose this location. The room I had was small, but my colleagues was much bigger but that’s the luck of the draw! Overall, I’d highly recommend this location!

This is a very lovely historic building and as such is quaint and quirky (creaky floors and sticky windows) but that is all character. The room was very comfortable and clean, and the service very friendly and excellent. Breakfast choices a bit limited but very nicely done. A beautiful village to have a wander around. Would use it again as a convenient stopover.
