Excellent breakfast, best I have had in many years, all the ingredients were quality and it shows.

I could have done with a rubber/ plastic anti slip Matt in the shower tray. However I did not ask for one at the time. Also a grab rail in the shower cubicle.

Breakfast was superb, freshly cooked to order by friendly helpful staff. Surroundings, were comfortable and up to date. Outside there are tables which would be lovely on a warm summers day/ evening, indeed we heard skylarks singing as we left in the morning. The owners were very helpful and offered us assistance with our luggage if needed.

Breakfast was a bit choatic. Only one member of staff doing everything cooking, waiting tables, refilling breakfast items. the staff seemed new and did not know where things were when we ask for extra tea/coffee etc

Lovely room and not noisey although it was over the bar. Nicely furnished with a large bathroom. Large car park

The food was OK, but having read the reviews prior to staying we were expecting a little better, but it was reasonably priced.

It was good value, a twin room for £85 a night is unusual. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was clean and functional.

Everything was good

Room 4 Bathroom shower seals badly stained need replacing, grouting, white silcon badly stained and the tiles at the lower end were yellowing and needs a real good cleaning!! Owner could do with employing more staff to cover reception, restaurant and bar areas when busy on one of the days, one person was covering all areas.

Breakfast was good, food at dinner was mediocre. Bar & waiter Staff very proficient and friendly and worked very hard.

The bed was very creaky and the hand sink taps were loose.

Friendly staff, nicely decorated (although small) room, great freshly cooked breakfast.

I have informed the time of the arrival for the breakfast. However, the access door form stairs to the kitchen was locked inside (the two keys provided did not open the door), knocked on the door and no body was there. So I had to leave without breakfast (had to go buy from outside ) although paid for breakfast. As it is on the top of the pub, the music could be heard until the close of the pub

Staff very helpful, surrounding was nice

Menu too restricted for dinner

Breakfast could have been better presented and cooked

There was a green light in the room above the door which would not switch off. Had trouble sleeping because of the constant green glow in the room

Good accommodation and comfortable stay.

Heating system not easy to get right especially if somebody should move the dial in the hallway.

Nice rooms, very clean. Breakfast was good with good choice. Perfect location for a wedding a few miles away. All the staff were attentive and friendly.

There was a noise like a generator on and off all night which was a little loud.

Pretty pub in the countryside.

The online menu is out of date. Based on that, we booked to eat somewhere else, but then heard by chance, that Wednesday night is Curry Night, so we cancelled our booking and enjoyed a curry at the Vernon. Poor online marketing, would do a lot better if the online offerings were up to date.

Breakfast was great

The food was very disappointing but perhaps it was our menu choice. The menu for evening meal was limited. We ordered the margherita pizza. Unfortunately it was undercooked, the tomatoes were tasteless and there was far too much cheese on top that was undercooked, there was no basil, which was disappointing as there are only 3 ingredients in a margherita pizza. We left it. Breakfast was a bit DIY, not sure what was on offer, perhaps a little menu would be good. Milk and fruit juice you helped yourself to in a fridge ( fridge not very clean). We were offered cooked breakfast but declined. The property met our expectations but unfortunately the food didn't.

Very smart decor in the pub itself and the bedroom. The room ( no.1) had a lovely bathroom and nice quality towels. Good accommodation for £95. Good access to the M5. Very quiet, although on a road there were no traffic issues or noise.

I loved the aesthetic of the property. Old coaching house and inn. It had beautifully preserved beams and the rooms were quirky. The breakfast was excellent and the staff were all lovely.

The shower room probably could do with a little updating, ie the shower door didn't seal properly (small puddle on the floor after showering) etc, but saying that it all worked fine and the shower itself was decent.

The staff were very helpful and friendly, brilliant evening meals along with a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere all round.

The only reason I have marked facilities down is the wifi is not good enough, I was travelling with work and ended up leaving my laptop in the car as I couldn't have done any work if I'd tried.

Lovely stay at The Vernon, staff could not have possibly done more, they were all welcoming and attentive. The Chef is an absolute star! Both my evening meal and breakfast were top notch.

The breakfast was a little disjointed. A small menu would be really nice, and maybe some juices available

The staff were very friendly

Booking info and signage advised breakfast served from 7am on weekdays but didn't actually start til 8 - the same time as we had to be at the office - so weren't able to benefit from this.

Comfy bed and good food

Nothing not to like

This a beautifully restored 16th century property that is warm and cosy and very clean. I stayed for two nights and slept very well in a comfortable bed. Poached eggs on toast and coffee was a great start to the day. I’ll definitely stay again if I’m back in this part of the country.

Breakfast was good, but the fried eggs were awful! A personal request would be to get rid of the handled 'pans' on the plate for the tomatoes and beans. The bed was awfully squeaky, although comfortable. A bit more attention to detail in the cleaning would be recommended to remove cobwebs and leftover caps from toiletries used by the previous resident in the shower

The room was nicely presented and the hotel as a whole is attractive and welcoming, with a massive car park. The staff were very friendly.
