Pros:

Superb pub. Sadly no dinner on Monday or Tuesday, which is a shame as we have eaten here before and it is excellent. The room is small, a little tired, but comfortable. Good value for money. The breakfast is however superb and worth the visit alone, I will always stay here as it is a lovely hotel with lovely staff.

Cons:

The room is a little tired. There was no wifi in the room (room 4) and the tv is relatively small with freeview channels only. More importantly, there is no room to work in the room, but I am sure they would let you work downstairs in the public bar if you asked.

Great break in a lovely hotel and village
Pros:

The breakfast was lovely, I asked for bacon with my poached eggs and they were delicious and well presented. The setting is beautiful. There was also big fan in the room that I could use if needed because of the temperatures. Staff were lovely and couldn't do enough for you. I would definitely go back. Also it was spotlessly clean.

Cons:

The parking

Passable for an overnight stay at a price, but not anything like photos
Pros:

Ideal location, alternative pillows available, pleasant staff and a decent breakfast

Cons:

The stair carpets and paintwork everywhere were in awful condition- a horrible green; it made everything look dark. The bedroom and especially bathroom weren’t that clean. The bathroom sink was the size of a shoebox.

A decent place to stay but the management have to improve their breakfast and service.
Pros:

It’s a good location in a pleasant small town. Our room wasn’t large but fairly well appointed and adequate for a one night stay.

Cons:

A disappointing overcooked breakfast, apart from the poached eggs. We kept having to ask for additional items: hot water for the tiny teapot, butter for the toast and marmalade which couldn’t be found at all.
