Guest Reviews
The place was closed and we then had to find fresh accommodation
Having paid for the booking now having to get our money back.
Brick feast was good and chef cooked what ever we wanted.
Breakfast service was from 7.30am, but I needed to leave earlier than that each morning, so the lovely staff arranged for a breakfast sandwich to be ready for me to take with me, which was very kind of them. The last day I was able to have breakfast in the hotel, but the evening staff had arranged for continental breakfast...the breakfast staff, who I believe was the owner, did offer to cook me something which was nice of him, and the exceptional sandwiches the other two days made up for it...just a miscommunication.
The room was across the courtyard from the pub, which was unexpected but nice, and had ample free parking right outside of the building. My room had a bath, rather than a shower, which again was unexpected and relaxing for me, but might not suit everyone. The bed was comfortable with plenty of pillows, nice quality bedding and towels.
Although the pub feels rural and was very quiet, there are plenty of local amenities; Oakham is only a 10 minute drive, Stamford about the same, and exactly 5 minutes to A1 Northbound which was great.
Not so much dislikes, but I arrived after a long day intending to eat in the restaurant to find that they don't serve food on a Monday, so I had to go out and find food. The staff did say I could get a takeaway delivered.
The room was lovely, but did have a few spider carcasses, and the windows were a bit rickety, but nothing that detracted from the stay.
I never yet found the wifi password, but to be fair, I forgot to ask; I'm sure it would have been forthcoming if I had
Food was excellent.
Bedroom could have had a little bar of soap etc. Also would have preferred a comfortable chair.
Lovely place, with the friendliest staff and delicious food. Extremely welcoming
Needs a little investment in the bathrooms
Nice village pub wtth Real Ale and very friendly staff
We were made to feel welcome and the service was friendly and efficient. The beer was very well kept. The breakfast hot food was excellent.
Pillows on the beds we're not comfortable at all, need replacing, because of them i had an awful sleep. Everything else was great. Food was awesome also 😋 👌
The property was lovely and clean, the staff were really helpful and friendly. It was in a great location and my room was warm and comfortable.
My room was next to staff offices / kitchens, which meant I was woken up at around 6 or 7am both mornings. Which ideal for a relaxing stay. Id also say that having breakfast close at 9-9.30am on a weekend is quite early as well. Completely expected for a weekday, but again when you’re away for a relaxing weekend it’s not the best.
Lovely staff and excellent food
Generous breakfast and charming host.
Country pub close to Rutland Water
Lovely interesting inn with lovely food and close to Rutland water
Nothing
Forget the previous reviews the new landlady has only been there 4 months and is trying to turn things around. Staff were lovely, food was good, plenty of choice at breakfast
The rooms and bathroom were tired and on the small side. She plans a refurb over winter. At the moment the rooms have no Wi-Fi, not a problem if you enough data on your phone

Value for money
Staff were incredibly helpful throughout our stay. Any issues were sorted out very quickly. Food was excellent. The Chef really knows how to produce lovely food and it was very hot. We were offered bacon rolls to take into Burghley Horse Trials and they opened up early for breakfast to help us. Fresh milk was available for tea in the room. They could not do enough to make our stay comfortable.
A small fridge in each room would be very helpful and there was certainly room for it.
Breakfast was good
No Wi-Fi, the over the bath shower was very hard to use with no wall fitting for the shower head or curtain to stop splashing.
