    Very friendly and accommodating and local feel to it. Went out of their way to make us feel welcome and even set aside dinner for later arrival on a Sunday.

    Lovely place, super friendly people, great pub downstairs and a lovely breakfast! Decor in the room was superb, walks straight from the door, saw a whole load of red kites, and a Hare! Very dog friendly too! Tea and coffee were good quality in the room!

    Staff were very welcoming , friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble . Room was attractive , with everything I needed for a 2 night stay. Bed was very comfortable. Large en-suite with a great shower. Although it is a pub , there was no noise from the locals downstairs. Good choice of breakfast , and the toast was some of the best I have tasted. Thank you .

    The bath room was very small.

    The Building is typical old inn, so the window was a bit difficult to open for the warm day, but it didn't really bother us. The food was good, and the choice was better than expected. We enjoyed a good English breakfast! The hotel staff was very friendly and kind.

    The only improvement could have been an electric fan as we went on a very warm weekend 28 degrees. The room was cool when we arrived but on returning late at night was very warm.

    The welcome. The room was lovely, large with a chaise longue as well as a double bed.

    Not applicable.

    We stayed in room No 2, which is nicely decorated and large enough to spread out a bit especially if, as we were, you’re travelling with a dog and all their paraphernalia! (dog bed, bowls etc). Double bed is large and really comfortable; and the shower has to be one of the best I’ve experienced in years with regards to water pressure and temperature. Evening meal and breakfast were excellent and there are veggie options too. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly and we look forward to staying there again.
