Room was functional and clean. The bathroom was a little tired. There were biscuits with a good selection of teas and coffee. Ample parking. Breakfast was average. The staff were all very friendly. The room was a little overpriced for the standard.

Short stay in the Dorset countryside.

Our stay was everything that was promised in the literature. Clean room and bathroom, well stocked tea tray, lovely hot water shower and bath. We did experience an issue with the toilet cistern not refilling but staff were on hand immediately it was reported and rectified the problem. Well done! Cooked to order breakfast with good quality tasty ingredients. Would stay here again and recommend to others. A quick touch up of paintwork on the bathroom skirting under the radiator would make it look make it look a whole lot better being the only negative comment.

Friendly, but occasionally noisy

I've stayed twice at this friendly pub, which offers good quality food, a buzzing bar area and simple, but comfortable rooms. The only issue I had was staying on the first floor, there was too much noise from the bar below, which lasted until late, and meant I couldn't get my family to sleep. This was not the case with the attic room that I also stayed in. Staff are friendly, the restaurant menus and quality of food is excellent.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Unfortunately a disappointing stay, especially for the price paid. Had all the facilities and staff to be super promising but let down on the details - food was hit and miss, some good dishes and some way below the mark. The towels in the bathroom were stained, and the shampoo bottle was totally empty. Although not a super busy road, the road was extremely noisy in the bedroom and weirdly the tv kept turning on itself during the night, so not the best nights sleep. Having said that the staff were lovely, super friendly and very helpful.
