Don't come, old and no cold water
Cons:

The place looks really old, there was a strange, old chest in the room. On top of the fact that the shower only has super hot water and no cold, so you can't even have a decent shower!!

Lovely village pub, nice location.
Pros:

Friendly staff, nice comfy bed,good shower, and a kettle and mugs for a cuppa, with biscuits too.
Nice to be able to eat evening meal on site all be the menu was a bit limited, it needs more fish dishes and healthy options with other vegetables not just peas. We need our 5 a day.

Cons:

The heatwave is stifling, but that's not the fault of the establishment, but a fan in the room would have been nice.

Charmant hotel

De tweepersoonskamer was charmant. Het hotel zelf oogt ook authentiek

Het formaat van de 1 persoonskamer en de hygiëne in de badkamer kan beter

Pros:

Nice enough place but didn't know we were going to a tiny village miles from where we thought we were going!! Thanks to your rubbish booking system we were hoodwinked into thinking we were actually going to Morpeth not 6 miles away!!!!

The location was not good enough
