    Great Location not too far from Oulton Park Race Circuit. Friendly staff, King Suite was better than we expected. The jacuzzi in the bedroom is a nice touch. Restaurant food was great. We highly recommend this place.

    Nothing. It was all lovely.

    The pub and restaurant have a very relaxed and cozy atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Dinner was superb. I was looked after by a most attentive waiter - the level of service was that of a Michelin star restaurant. I had the vegan ice-cream and apple pie on his recommendation for dessert (I'm not vegan). It was I think the best apple pie I have ever had. Breakfast was of an equally high standard. Unfortunately I arrived late and left early so did not have a chance to enjoy the beautiful outside terrace. I'd definitely recommend a stay at the Badger Inn

    The whole stay would have been 10/10 but for one thing. the WIFI was none existent. this was only an issue as I was travelling for work. the cellular network reception was also poor in the area (not the property's fault).

    The place was superb, set in a country pub within a quiet village. really great staff and food. I ate here every night and it was high quality with good value for money. the room was super clean and huge roof heights made it feel super spacious. the room was refreshed every day and the breakfast was divine.

    Nice quite place to stay for a night stop over but food choice could do with being a little better.

    We booked for an evening meal which had a nice setting but menu was slightly limited and all the choices seemed to lack vegetables. We did not have starters. My wife has an allergy to fresh green products and so asked if she could have some carrots or mushrooms but the only option was some extra chips which we refused however despite this she was still given the extra chips !! which then went to waste. Desserts seemed over priced. I chose to have ice cream at £6 for 3 scoops but they were tiny.

    We stayed for one night during the week. It was a very quite location. Due to having to leave at 6am in the morning before breakfast was available we did not choose that option so did not pay for something we could not have. The room was clean and décor was pleasant with a very large smart TV. Staff were pleasant.

    Unfortunately, a bird left a very large and messy calling card on our windscreen overnight which took a bit of cleaning off in the morning. Probably not a good idea to park under a tree.

    We got a lovely welcome on arrival. All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful. Our room was a good size with a smart bathroom. I liked both the bed linen and the curtains. The large television was ideal for watching Wimbledon. We ate in, unusually for us, the star of the meal was the dessert. The choice of desserts offered tempting alternatives to the usual fare. We chose a marmalade brioche bread and butter pudding which was outstanding, my only regret was that we could not manage a second helping. The breakfast next morning was excellent, the best I can remember, even the orange juice had been carefully selected. The garden deserves a special mention, being a delightful display of flowers and shrubs which were able to enjoy in the evening whilst drinking some of the very pleasant cask ale available. Despite being the night of the England match we couldn’t have been better looked after.

    Rooms could have done with an additional brighter light, but this is a very minor point. Everything was excellent.

    Very clean and comfortable room. They are very specious and had a nice modern en suite. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again and recommend this stay

    We wished we had been told that the bathroom was very small - we wold have chosen a different room - a larger person or elderly person would have struggled to get in through the door and also into the shower the door here is also very narrow. There needs to be a shelf in the shower as the shower gel was placed on the floor, if you don't want to get your hair wet this was a problem. The duvet needs to be larger, we kept pulling it off each other during the night

    We have an evening meal which was very good - it was busy but we didn't have to wait long for our food - well cooked and tasty We actually had a sunny early evening so could sit outside and enjoy the patio and garden area which was very well maintained with lots of lovely pots with flowers. The room was exceptionally clean
