Nice rural village location, comfortable, good food and beer, nice staff. Good location for Lincoln and Frampton Marsh.
Pros:

Nice rural village location. Good restaurant and good choice of beers. Staff are lovely, as were the locals. Quiet at night.

Cons:

Garden view, turned out to be a fire exit, car park view. Most of the rooms appeared to look out on the road or carpark. A little disappointing as i like my bird life. That said it wasn’t a big deal.

Excellent Hotel, would use again for business in the area. Great food, clean and tidy, lovely stay.
Pros:

Food excellent at all times, staff were very pleasant and always enough people around to make it feel like a well loved place

Cons:

Unfortunately my room was above or adjacent to a noisy chiller from kitchen area and im a relatively light sleeper, so it disturbed me.

Excellent value for a very comfortable stay in a well located pub/restaurant.
Pros:

The rooms were modern and comfortable with large bathrooms. Excellent towels and toilet paper! All too often hotels try to save money by supplying nasty, thin paper but as you have to use so much more it really isn’t an economy.
Breakfast was excellent, an amazing buffet of cold treats and toast then a very lavish hot food menu cooked to order.
The dining room was pleasantly busy and the food and drink offerings were splendid.

Cons:

Very little, being picky it would have been nice to have a second chair in the room and more shelf space in the bathroom.

Superb value, high-quality stay - great room and fabulous food
Pros:

We had a lovely room - spacious, thoughtfully laid out and with a fabulous en-suite bathroom, with an excellent rain shower. Superb value for money, and the staff were so helpful and friendly. Breakfast and dinner also superb, using brilliant local ingredients.

Cons:

Could have done without the morning 'serenade' from a nearby rooster, but then that is the countryside for you!
