Great little find
Pros:

The room was huge and the bed was so comfy. The shower was powerful and a good size. There was an event in the tap room but we could barely hear anything.
The food was delicious and the staff friendly.

Pros:

I love the venue
The location
The breakfast
It's all very nice

Cons:

The noise Early morning from the cleaners who had very young children with them
I found this very bizarre and did not expect that noise at those early hours of the morning from staff.
Considering the room cost over £250 i think a little peace and quiet before you start your day is the least we can expect

Nice stay in a lovely old pub.
Pros:

Location was good and the room was nice. The bar area was comfortable and staff were friendly and helpful in the bar. Breakfast was not great - the eggs were beautifully cooked but the presentation was awful. Eating bacon and egg on toast out of a bowl was unusual and not easy.

Cons:

Breakfast
