Really lovely pub and food was nice with a nice ambiance. Room was lovely but didn’t sleep well due to the bed not being
Pros:

Lovely pub, room was clean and nicely decorated with enough room for all 4 of us, 2 adults and 2 young children

Cons:

The bed wasn’t very comfy, bit hard. It is also right on a road so heard quite a bit of noise all through the night
