Pros:

The staff were exceptional, so friendly and helpful. The location is very convenient, stayed one night for a nearby wedding and it ticked all the boxes. Rooms are very nicely done out.

Cons:

Our room was a little noisy being right next to the main road but that couldn't be helped. We were back in the early hours anyway

Fine
Pros:

Location on a slightly more busy road in a village. Not a nice view. Room well enough. Not my kind of pub but enough places to go in the village. Didn't see any on site parking which I expected.

Cons:

On site parking

Lovely owners, great location but too noisy for me.
Pros:

Location was great.

Cons:

WiFi was awful and too noisy for me. My room was directly above a speaker and when I arrived at 3pm on Friday the music was pulsating in my room. It woke me at 8:20am on the Sunday morning. It was very loud.
