Lovely and welcoming, very clean and comfortable, but wouldn’t recommend if you want a quiet stay!
Pros:

Very clean and comfortable room. Excellent shower too.

Cons:

Rooms are all adjoining and the walls are very thin. Very noisy on both sides, you could even hear the water running in the other room’s bathroom.
Walkway to other rooms was right outside both windows, so as we were getting ready people were walking past at eye level so we had to have all the blinds closed.

Very pleasant country pub, great hosts and even better food.
Pros:

Well located pub in the heart of the village offering rooms. Food was great, both in the evening and for breakfast.

Cons:

Surfaces had a thin layer of dust which was visible on the shiny surfaces. Probably no more than that which settles after fresh sheets are put on the bed and the pillows puffed up.
