A very good overnighter for a comfy sleep and a good breakfast.
Pros:

I stopped for one night only on a single basis; the room was maybe a little small for an extended stay by a couple. The room was clean with up to date furniture - plenty of clothes storage - and a very comfy double bed. The en-suite was quite new and very clean; shower gave hot water quickly. The breakfast was excellent - very tasty and well cooked; the young lady on reception/waitressing in the morning was very helpful and efficient. The adjoining bar was very busy - vibrant - on the Saturday night. The ale was excellent.

Cons:

All fine so no comment here.

Beautiful stay in a lovely town, shame about the Church bells
Pros:

Really nice old hotel on the high street, with a good pub underneath.
The staff were really helpful and the room was lovely.

Cons:

unfortunately no parking available and the church bells across the road ring through out the night and kept me awake. which is clearly not the hotels fault, but I will bring ear plugs next time

Really great location, staff and comfy room - would definitely stay again
Pros:

The check-in is in the pub/bar next to the main hotel, the locals seemed friendly as were the staff who issued our keys and showed us to the room.

the room was clean and decent size, very comfy bed.

nice light / view over the high street & church.

good shower and excellent Full English breakfast.

the parking is accessed from the rear and was sheltered (the parking is inside an old barn).

Cheap and cheerful stay
Pros:

Convenient location and really good price

Cons:

Rooms are tired, particularly the bathroom. First time we stayed the shower backed up second time we didn’t use the shower (different room) because there was black mould. The loo seat was also loose. Appreciate it’s an old building but bathrooms could do with an upgrade/deep clean.
