Great rooms and a must for people who like sports pubs
Pros:

Staff were extremely helpful and the room we had was excellent and one of the best rooms in a pub we have been to. Garden area out at the back we did not use but seemed very pleasant and secluded.

Cons:

Bar area was a bit too noisy for us (it is a sports bar) with no quiet area for guests not intrerested in sport. If you are a sports fan you will love this pub.

Whistle stop stay for house viewings
Pros:

The breakfast was well cooked and very tasty. Nice small menu to choose from, and my dog was able to join me in the bar. The room was kitted out with lots of useful touches, water, towels, hanging space and shelving. Ideal in a small single. I must complement the staff, all of whom were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

I struggled with the pillows - they were not great and could do with replacing. The charge for dogs could be removed/reduced if they didn’t worry about providing a ‘doggy’ welcome pack. A nice touch, but I’d personally prefer not to pay the £25 supplement. Lastly, car parking could be an issue. I was lucky and visited at off peak times, but I imagine later in the season this can be a problem.

We would stay again :)
Pros:

The bedroom we stayed in was excellent - the bed comfy - and the location was very central. On site parking is a bonus - nothing negative to say about our room. The staff were all super helpful and chatty.

Cons:

When you first walk in - you find a sports pub - basic but clean. We somehow thought the bedrooms would have been a letdown after that first impression - but we were wrong - the bedroom we had (facing the road on the first floor) was very pleasant.

Fantastic place, great value, would definitely stay there again.
Pros:

Location is brilliant, moments away from the railway station and the town.
Breakfast which is included was amazing, great quality.
Really lovely touch was being remembered by the young woman who is there in the mornings (really sorry, didn't't catch her name) who remembered I was gluten free and that I didn't have milk in my tea.
Really welcoming venue, can't fault it in any way.

Cons:

Nothing
