Room cold on arrival. No change even after complaint. Food bland & due to vegan stuff with oil. Tasteless fish & chips. Beer just about palatable..on the positive, water hot & comfy bed. Please ensure you ask for what’s expected before booking. Overall. Nice place that needs work

Nice old pub for one night away. Will stay here again, when in the area line only downside, which was probably my fault was you have to pay extra for cooked breakfast, however, that was complimentary continental breakfast.

As the Inn was built in 1709, it has been well cared for and it was enjoyable to stay at. Typical for the period the room were small yet cosy, with a good ensuite shower, with good working wifi in our room. Staff were pleasant and we were never rushed and had on occasions to seek staff out, but overall we would stay again, if returning to the area. The Inn's menu's to have dinner were supplied in our room, but having decided what were intended to eat for dinner, we found they had changed a newer dinning menu whilst no wine list or prices were available to allow a choice. There was excellent parking at the rear of the Hotel for guests staying.
