A good overnight stay

Comfortable clean room. Lovely dinner at a reasonable cost, but had to wait a long time for order to be taken and food served. As we were in no hurry, it didn't matter but, had I been starving it would have been annoying. I would certainly stay here again

Lovely Accommodation

Very friendly staff, very busy, could have done with another member of staff as they seemed a bit overstretched. Lovely location, nice & quiet. Good menu & food, nice atmosphere. Very comfortable bed. Would happily return & recommend.

Nice place in a lovely area.

The room was huge and bed very comfortable, and the pub itself had great food. Really nice breakfast too. You can go for nice walks from the door too.

Lovely country pub with accommodation. Room was very comfortable and clean with good quality linen. Dinner was well priced with large servings. The staff were all very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was tasty with good quality ingredients. Only criticism is that there were no breakfast options for children. Perhaps some cereal on offer would go along way for kids or even just a simple boiled egg with soldiers. Thanks for a lovely safe stay!

Unfortunately, there were flies in the Bedroom & Restaurant, and you had to continually battle to keep the flies off the food & drinks. Raised it with a member of staff who said there was nothing they could do, it was just the season. Suggest management need to take the problem seriously, and find the source.
