Matig tot medium
Pros:

Het ligt op een goede locatie.

Cons:

De WIFI werkt niet op de bovenste verdieping. De kamer is erg klein en verouderd. Als je een half jaar vantevoren boekt verwacht je niet weggestopt te worden op een zolderkamertje.

Always nice to stay above a pub and walk up stairs to bed.

A little updating and maintenance wouldn’t go a miss but didn’t affect our break.

Enjoyable but dissapointed in the room
Pros:

We enjoyed our stay and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. but was disapointed with our room, although it was clean it was very small. The shower was as old as the building with all the enamal round it was all peeling off the cold tap hardly worked and sprayed out the hot tap was on the wrong way round. We felt it all needed to be updated we also thought the bed head and bottom base was to big for the room and mattress was uncomfortable Hope you take these comentents to be honest and helpful

Cons:

As above

All in all, a pleasant stay in a peaceful, charming environment.
Pros:

A delightful pub set in a beautiful, well-kept village.
My room was clean and well-serviced.

Cons:

My room was overlooked by a staircase and a balcony with outdoor seating. Privacy could only be maintained by drawing the curtains or a heavy blind, blocking out all daylight. A net curtain would have made a huge difference.
The shower room, although very clean, was in need of some upgrading and decorating. The mattress was well worn and a little lumpy.
