Super comfortable. Well fed and rested, couldn’t ask for more from an established and lively village pub-hotel
Pros:

Ancient and great pub, very much alive and the heartbeat of the village. Multiple dining spaces, Bar, restaurant, private dining, food was great, not gastro-pretentious, just classics done well. Staff were also great, especially the hotel and breakfast hosting team.

Cons:

Single rooms a bit bare, Worn - but that part of its charm. Showers could be a bit cleaner.

Loved it, the only issue was lack of parking space.
Pros:

Food was good. Location ideal for walking. Comfortable bed.
Lovely traditional bar and welcoming log fire, plus a good choice of beers. The 17th century building has lots of character.

Cons:

Bathroom decor starting to look a little tired. Parking space is limited and we sometimes had to park along the road from the hotel.

Worth visiting
Pros:

The building is amazing, the staff were very friendly, polite, and helpful. The food was great.
Parking was good.

Cons:

The window in our room didn't close completely, letting in a cold draft. The toilet door would not shut completely so couldn't be locked.
