The bathroom stood out the most - all the furnishings and decor, nearly renovated - the food was very nice as well
Top quality food. Steak & Ale pie to die for and excellent fish & chips.
Great breakfast with quality produce.
Brilliant selection of ales.
Old fashioned English Inn with a lovely atmosphere and friendly staff.
Tidy room with a modern en-suite shower room. Bed not to our liking but that's very much a personal choice.
In a very quiet location with no shops nearby but would recommend for an overnight stay.
Good country pub and accommodation with great food
Excellent friendly helpful staff, room was clean and bed was comfy, bathroom and shower good as well with nice products. Food in bar was very good and also breakfast full English and other courses available and good with excellent coffee. Jigsaw in bar which we done in the evening with a couple of good beers. Good parking facilities.
A friendly olde worlde hotel set in rural Surrey
Many of the beers have a very low carbon footprint,tasty brews made locally.
Great stopping place en route to or from Gatwick.
An overnight stay on the way home.Some difficulty finding it blame satnav.
Although late we had a great meal,breakfast was also very good
Staff friendly,in splendid countryside.
Having had a 3 hour drive down, we were greeted with a smile and two delightful rooms. Crisp linen and a smile. Food was fabulous (try the scotch eggs). Beer was good and the conversation was great. Will come back when visiting family. Fully booked for Sunday lunch so make sure you book if coming to stay. Judging by the 3 courses we had well worth booking
Nice pub in quiet village. good location. Good food.

Very nice pub, gooc food and beer. My room was very small but adequate for one night. Could have done with more than one veggie option on the menu, very nice.
Lovely Saturday night away up at Leith Hill. We arrived for a late lunch. We’d booked a double room for the night but when the staff saw our two Labradors - they gave us a much bigger room.
Everyone was really friendly at the pub and the Plough is perfect for exploring the beautiful countryside around Coldharbour. The food was excellent and the service superb. Breakfast was really good.
It feels really ‘different’ up there - lovely walks and stunning views. We’ll be back.
Very friendly and proactive staff. Nice room, well decorated, with a comfy bed. Excellent food, both dinner and breakfast, good beer selection. Had a delightful stay.
Great quirky pub with rooms in the Surrey hills. Cyclist paradise as we woke in the morning to hundreds stopping for a drink or refreshments. Only complaint that the pub closed early even for residents, however great homemade food.
The hotel was lovely staff were very friendly ans welcoming. The room was pretty small. Bathroom felt more like a cuboard really designed for bigger people. But for the price we paid for a couple nights and breakfast included it was perfect.
Koselig opphold på toppen av denne puben. Veldig hyggelig og serviceminded betjening. Koselige rom med sjel. Frokosten var rikholdig, men litt smakløs.

Could have been cleaner (check toilet bowl), no t bags or spoon, kettle too big to fit under bathroom tap. A bright light outside the window on all night and a compressor noise all night. The worst thing was the outside metal stairs to get to the bedrooms, had it been raining I wouldn't have stayed. Food limited to what is offered on certain nights. The host was brilliant but his wife really shouldn't serve breakfast in her 'nightie'. Amazing location for walking and cycling.

Quirky place to stay
The location of the hotel is stunning, with great views from the top of Leith. Very, very quiet surroundings. The room was comfortable but with repairs needed to furniture and equipment. Food was good quality but be prepared for a wait. An interesting stay!
