Pros:

Room was reasonably well equipped and modern

Cons:

Road noise, being made to feel like I was putting them out by checking in at 9pm, so made my way there earlier. Pub was closed which was a shame and then my wife was bitten when leaving by a dog belonging to one of the owners. Keep those away from customers.

Pros:

Personal agradable, parking gratis y la habitación era amplia para dos personas y tenía todas las comodidades, incluso detalles como Planchas del pelo o una cuenta de Netflix para poder usar

Cons:

Al estar encima de un pub hubo ruido hasta las 23h, pero luego paró. Los coches se oían bastante al haber una calle principal delante

Traditional English pub stay and I would be happy to stay again.
Pros:

Traditional English pub accommodation with rooms above the bar. Modern in room bathroom and room furnishings.
Good heating, great staff and wholesome meals available.

Cons:

Very loud in the rooms from live music downstairs - probably should have expected that from a pub on a Friday night. Ear plugs were provided in room.
