Lovely stay in this hotel
Pros:

The hotel and pub were lovely. The staff were really helpful and friendly. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Food was excellent. Situated in beautiful surroundings.

Cons:

The hotel and pub is old and just needs a few improvements. We noticed that the windows and window sills were cracked and damaged and some grout work is needed in the bathrooms. However, everything else was great.

A warm welcoming old inn with great staff good food and good ale and two log fires to keep out the chills.
Pros:

Its location, pretty near to where I live so a quick night away, good food and drink and meeting good people during the stay.

Cons:

It’s had a fresh lick of paint inside and out and is looking fresh without the losing its old worldly charm . I’m hoping though the paint might stretch to the pet quarters where in a few places needs a freshen up but a good comfortable room was had for us and our two cockapoos who love the place
