Our stay
Pros:

The property was lovely... Warm and cosy with both a bath and a shower. It felt out in the country but was close enough to get to the town

Great for an overnight stay or a long weekend. Perfect for our weekend at Santa Pod
Pros:

Very nice building and decor. Spacious and traditional with a welcoming feel. Nice food from the bar as well as full English breakfast in the morning

Cons:

We had room 17 which was a nice room but being on the main road side would benefit from better sound insulation windows as road noise was quite prominent

Very convenient as we were attending a function in the village hall just 5 minutes away.
Pros:

Nicely fitted room with everything we needed for an overnight stay.

Cons:

Just a small thing. It would have been useful to have coat hooks in the room to place overcoats.
