The food was lovely and the staff welcoming.
Friendly and helpful staff
Comfortable room. Nice food. We’re able to accommodate our expensive bicycles, bringing them in doors overnight.
Excellent food
Difficulty with lock on bedroom door
Gorgeous setting, lovely room and great food and service. The staff were amazing.
Staff were very pleasant and the bed was comfortable.
Bathroom was very cramped.
The breakfast menu was very limited
Better windows needed as the road noise was intrusive.
Very comfortable room and bed, excellent breakfast
The location was ideal. I was at an event near by.
This place is poorly run. The staff were nice people but overall is was not what you would expect from any accommodation.
For the food, I ordered a salmon, potatoes and vegetables. The dish came without potatoes. When I asked where the potatoes were, she told me that they hadn't been delivered that day. She didn't tell me that when making the order or when bringing the food out. So, I asked for chips instead, which they were able to do. These were added to the bill as an extra cost.
The salmon wasn't cooked through, 1/3 of it was raw. Salmon shouldn't be served raw, it can contain parasites.
I booked here for 3 nights. When I checked in, I was just handed a key with no explanation of anything, no one showed me to my room.
When I got back at 11:45 one night, the whole place was closed. I couldn't get in. I had to shout at one of the windows. Thankfully, one of the staff who probably lives there was able to let me in. She explained that one of the keys works for the fire exit at the back. I wasn't told this on check in.
The second day that I went down for breakfast at 8am. No one was there, I couldn't find anyone in the whole pub. Other people had left their keys on the counter and checked out. It didn't look like they had done breakfast for anyone that day.
There was a bit of a smell in the bathroom and the shower drain was partially blocked, the water wasn't draining properly.
I decided to check out early and go home. I didn't stay in the final night that I had booked.
I slept reasonably well. I could hear the other guests opening and closing their doors at 6am. My door was too wide for the frame and had to be pushed quite hard to close it.
I wouldn't stay here again. This place isn't run properly. There are that many issues, I'm sure that the people running it are aware of it.
everthing!
Its a beautiful little country pub with gorgeous rooms and great facilities
Excellent location
No hot water
Great location really lovely room. Comfortable bed. Food in the pub was great, sadly no breakfast, but a lovely café in the village sorted that out! Lovely,,helpful and friendly staff

Zero rate for breakfast because we were held up on travelling to the inn and wasn’t told you had to pre order breakfast before 8.30 and we didn’t get there until 10.20 pm due to delay
The mirror in the bathroom too high. Poor lighting no mirror at the vanity unit but it had the coffee tray on it. Staff were excellent. Shower didn’t work right and filled up with water on the shower tray. Most of all don’t go through booking.com because I had so much stress with them having my payment for 20 days
