Location good - room awful
Pros:

The location was perfect for what we needed

Cons:

We paid for a standard room 20sqm but on arrival were given a tiny tiny room of no more than 12/14sqm. There are only 4 rooms so had no choice but to accept as no other accommodation available locally and had a wedding to attend.
Seriously unamused as could not walk around the bed the room was so small and had to be a contortionist to use the shower and loo if you shut the door.
Only bread rolls and pastries for breakfast - nothing resembling healthy
13.5 tog duvet in the summer, it was 30 C outside - seriously!!

Underwhelming and not what was expected from the website/booking info.
Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

No food and drink service was available after 5pm on the Sunday and 8pm on Monday. The staff had all left the premises and left me a front door key and a phone number if I had any issues. The lack of access to even a drink was pretty poor.

Pros:

Lovely location

Cons:

Paper thin walls, could hear the people talking in their rooms late into the night. Stairway up to the rooms very steep and the step at the bottom is higher than the rest which is rather jarring

Fab interiors and a very comfy bed!
Pros:

The room was beautiful, very nice interiors!

Lovely Country pub - but late check in only
Pros:

It had a cozy vibe and was dog friendly - which is great, and expected from most country pubs :)

Cons:

The check in was super late (4pm) and the bedroom was cozy, but unusually small.

Très chaleureux, on s'y sent très bien. Le village est charmant. Typiquement anglais
Pros:

La déco super cosy, la grande chambre, le pub adorable, le feu de cheminée

Cons:

Le matelas un peu trop mou à mon goût, le petit-déjeuner qui est inclus est assez léger

Beautiful gem of culinary and atmospheric delight
Pros:

Beautiful period pub restaurant with attention to detail that has been sympathetic to the character of the building. Each area feels unique and beautifully looked after

Cons:

Nothing! Even the restocking of the logs for the fire we could hear in the morning felt just naturally characterful. The team are so thoughtful, professional and made our stay really special
