Lovely pub
Pros:

An absolutely brilliant pub restaurant experience! The food was excellent, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, but what really stood out was the staff. Despite being incredibly busy and clearly rushed off their feet, they remained friendly, attentive, and professional throughout. Nothing was too much trouble, and they made sure everyone felt looked after. Their hard work and great attitude really made the visit special. Fantastic team, great service, and we’ll definitely be coming back!

WORK EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE
Pros:

Arrived in wheelchair struggled to get up onto brick pathway, uncomfortable getting through small doorway, disabled toilet too small, could not access garden from inside as too many steps, went out side to garden & had to have wheelchair carried through pathway to garden as too many steps again & obstacles, had to be helped through causing considerable amount of pain, will never go again, disgusting that in this day & age that they are not disabled friendly, just stick a disabled label on toilet door even though room is too small for wheelchairs and they think thats ok,

Lovely surroundings, efficient staff great pillows and a great nights sleep.
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent and a great choice. Room was lovely and well equipped. Pillows were amazing and bed very very comfy.

Cons:

It would have been nice if the room had a robe to put on after having a bath or shower considering it was the honeymoon suite.

Pros:

Bathroom was very clean. Bedroom was very clean. Parking was excellent.

Cons:

Originally I booked for 1 guest. Weeks before the booked date I noticed the error and contacted the hotel and they amended the booking to 2 guests. Unfortunately the room was laid out for 1 guest, 1 set of towels and 1 mug for making coffee!

Perfectly adequate room, with mod ern shower. Breakfast not so good.
Pros:

Room was fine

Cons:

Breakfast was chaotic. There seemed to be only one member of staff having to serve some fifty guests. Milk seemed to be in very short supply (there was none available to put on cereals). Couldn't find any butter or marmalade.
