Very comfortable and good food but found all the stairs a problem with my luggage.
Pros:

Very well located right next to the station. Had dinner at the restaurant and the food was very good and so was the service. My room was fine and had a big bathroom.

Cons:

My room was a long way from reception with lots of stairs which I found very difficult with my luggage. If I come back I’ll ask for one much closer to the main entrance.
The TV reception was almost non existent.

Shocking! Greene King should be ashamed.Greene King need to get up to date with allergen menus Other establishments ca
Pros:

Location. In the centre of the village. Literally a minuet’s walk to the train station.

Cons:

So so dated. Room decor and furnishings desperately need updating. Breakfast shocking!!! Couldn’t advise me on gluten free ingredients for breakfast. So so out of touch! PLEASE look at offering a proper gluten free/allergen free menu. I asked if certain items contained wheat. The young lady waitress didn’t have a clue as to what I was talking about. She asked the breakfast chef and he/she had no idea either!! I cannot believe they have no clue as to allergens!! My requested gluten free ‘breakfast’ arrived with bread (I presume not gluten free), on my plate, and was barely lukewarm. I managed to eat some of it but once cold the rest was wasted. For me hot food should be hot. My food arrived not even lukewarm. Coffee was cold. I took one sip and couldn’t have any more. £12.50 for a cooked breakfast that contained hardly any gluten free options and was cold with cold coffee! Absolutely shocking! I’ve never had such a bad experience. We have stayed at The Raven a few times over the years, but unfortunately this will be the last. We didn’t stay for breakfast on our second day even though this had been already paid for. Instead we went to Newlyns Farm and had a fantastic, hot breakfast with hot coffee for less cost. Their menu clearly stated gluten containing items and I thoroughly enjoyed my breakfast. Such a contrast to what I received at The Raven. We won’t be returning to The Raven again.
