Great inn stay with dogs
Pros:

This old inn has converted the buildings attached in the courtyard at the rear to dog friendly ‘chalets’ and it was full and buzzing. Great food, real ales and there are tables outside each room for you to dine if good weather (middle of heatwave when we stayed). The breakfast was great too and the friendly staff remembered customers and their presences etc. There’s land at the rear for parking and doggie late night ablutions but the local dog walks are fantastic just out of the door once we’d found the lay of the land. The hotel provided electric fan for the heatwave. Highly recommended.

Cons:

As it was so busy it was at times a bit chaotic reminded us of holidays abroad which isn’t really a criticism but be prepared for crowds in good weather. I was very disappointed that the dog per night charge was doubled as we had two dogs I find this over the top do they expect double the mess are they going to clean it twice? My dogs are hotel trained and left no mess. If they are charging for dog hair allergies etc one deep clean would suffice. The dogs get nothing for the charge unlike other hotels where dog packs are in the rooms (and in some beds and bowls are offered). I know all dogs / dog owners differ but at the discretion of management they could refund part of this charge perhaps. I suspect the rooms don’t get an extra double clean.
Also, we had some giant woodlice in the bathroom who returned when we removed them - slightly worried that this might be signs of damage to the historic buildings.

Pros:

Not alot. evening meal was gd . Floors were so un even in the bedroom one didnt feel safe. It was clean ,,but very small. No grip in the shower so unable to have one
The pillows were filthy the pillowcase was clean buthave you everlooked at the pillows. They were disgusting.
Time for breakfast was 6am to 9am. I am on holiday I dont want breakfast that early. Cereal was served with a bowl and a packet of cerea. l
The hotel really needs a complete refurbishment. Certainly not suitable for the over60s
We left after 1night we were booked in for 3. So lost out on a refund.
All very dusappointing

Lovely, great value hotel
Pros:

Really nice old style pub and hotel. Rooms are quirky. Great location. Great food. Staff very approachable and helpful. Let us change from a twin room to a double for our 2nd night. Good value for money with reasonable food and drinks prices. Richard who worked on the reception was extremely nice and helpful. Really enjoyed our stay.

Cons:

Only down side was being in a room on our 2nd night which was a bit noisy due to traffic and a cafe underneath. Don't want to mark it down for this as it's the nature of the beast being in an old building.
