Lovely stay but would maybe avoid a weekend if possible
Pros:

The room was beautiful, the staff were so friendly and attentive and the food was amazing. Even having the music playing in the room on arrival was a nice little touch. Loved the venue.

Cons:

The only downside was that it was so nice that when we returned from the wedding we were attending we came back to bouncers on the door and a very loud crowd which we could hear in our room till late. Although it surprised us we accept it is a very pub and so it’s to be expected that it would be busy. It was just a bit too loud and busy and kept us awake for awhile. The place was lovely though.

Gem of a place
Pros:

Beautifully updated. High-quality rooms with great bathrooms, L'Occitaine toiletries. Retaining the period aspect of the building. Staff super friendly and helpful and clearly a firm favourite for locals in the evening. The bar was positively humming! Breakfast was excellent with some of the best scrambled eggs ever! A really wonderful stay. Thank you.

Cons:

Sadly.no dedicated car park, but public Ringo one very close by.

Most enjoyable. Bedding and bed was lovely
Pros:

Checking in was a bit chaotic as a busy pub but no real issue. The room was immaculate, spacious and very comfortable.
Breakfast was delicious.

Cons:

We wasn't informed of breakfast times on checking in, was a bit worried getting back late due to the pub closing so had to make sure we was back by 11.00pm
