No black out curtain. We had to ask again for a cot (Booking didn't transfer our request, we should have contact them directly for that). More expansive on Booking.com than on their website directly.

Family business all around: friendly, approachable, helpful. Breakfast was great (English, some cereals, yogurts, jam), room was quiet even if next to parking/road (no car driving by night). Couldn't hear any plain whilst inside. The travelling cot was amazing (comfortable, practical, brand new for what we knew). Great matteress, bedding and towels: everything was spotless. The pub and restaurant in the same building (I wore my slippers to go to the breakfast), with good, reasonable and tasty options (beers & food wise).

As above, just first class all round

Where do I start, this is a fabulous Inn, one of the best places I've stayed in my many decades of staying at locations all over the UK. Brilliant room, comfy double bed and a first class bathroom. The staff are very welcoming, and I enjoyed having a couple of beers in the bar and chatting with friendly locals. Breakfast was superb and for the price I paid, the value just simply can't be beaten. If I am ever this way again, I'll make sure I book here.

Everything, it’s a very clean & tidy hotel, food choice brilliant & very nice, breakfast brilliant, but it's the friendly staff & atmosphere that makes this a great place to stay. It's definitely going on my list of good stayaway pubs.

I would have liked plain yogurt for breakfast rather than flavoured and decaf tea in my room. Otherwise no negative comments.

Spotlessly clean, purpose built, modern extension to the Inn has been simply and thoughtfully designed and implimented. Very high laurel behind the rooms affords complete privacy ! Quiet at night. Easy access to dining room in the pub itself where "clean", hot food is served with charm. All the staff were extremely helpful and had a sense of fun and humour. Easy to find with the help of GPS. Ideal for my purpose

Shower was a bit faulty- but not enough to be unable to use.

Breakfast and evening meal were great as was the friendly and helpful staff.

The room was very basic but value for money. The room was very cold on arrival but there was a plug in oil heater in the wardrobe that sorted that out.

The property is in a nice village location. I received a warm welcome and staff were very communicative, friendly and accommodating. The rooms are set apart from the pub so you don’t get any pub noise. The restaurant dinner and breakfast were lovely.

En-suite in need of refurb and furnishings in room very basic.

Breakfast was excellent, the pub / hotel is located in a charming village with good parking outside the pub. The room was clean, comfortable but quite basic and the ensuite could do with a refurb. Ate in the pub and the food was very agreeable. Staff were all lovely.

Quite harsh lighting, particularly in the bathroom.

Second time here and I really enjoy it. It's a great pub, with great character and really pleasant and friendly staff. The surrounding countryside is lovely but it's also quick and easy to local train stations to reach further afield. The breakfast is fantastic. The bed was very comfortable, the shower powerful and overall it's great value for money.
