Great place, shame about the staff.
Pros:

Great manager/owner. Great place. Great atmosphere given that we landed unexpectedly during the Folly Fest which was such fun. Amongst the best we’ve stayed at during a 15 nights trip. Sadly, let down by young bar staff, who couldn’t care less and wouldn’t help in any way despite us having to face road closures and no parking. 30 degrees and an unexpected march with baggage after we’d bern left to locate and pay for parking. Clearly disgruntled at hearing our disappointment, we then had to endure being deliberately kept waiting at the bar when ordering drinks while the girls continued their conversations. Thr subsequent overcharge was also predictable, .£7 for 1/2 pint of apple juice. Really?

Pros:

My partner and I stayed here for an impromptu night over and wished we had stayed for longer now!
The staff were so friendly and the food was incredible, there was a real homely feel to the place and the grounds are stunning.
Easy parking too which is a plus. It’s only a 3 minute drive from a petrol station too.

We recommend:
- ordering the “ultimate burger”
- saving room after dinner for one of their ice cream sundaes
- ordering a local cider and sitting on the swing bench in the garden
