Lovely country retreat

We booked in for one night as we were attending a friends wedding. Lovely welcome as we went in and shown to our room. Had a drink from the bar before the Taxi collected us & took us to the wedding venue. Breakfast was lovely and made to order. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely family friendly B and B

Lyndsey and Mark were brilliant for our stay, so friendly and gave tips on things to do in the area . We also had a dog with us and they were very accommodating. Lovely B and B, close to amenities but far enough away for some peace and quiet. Food is also lovely, we had breakfast and tea.

The best hosts

Mark and Lyndsay were the perfect hosts, couldn’t do enough for us and made our stay one to remember. Best bits, Lyndsay’s cooking, made up for Marks jokes 😂 Will stay again without doubt

10/10 Exceptional

A great traditional pub in a lovely location run by a super friendly couple. We stayed on a bike tour and were made extremely welcome. The bar had the best range of 4 real ales that I have seen for a long time and the food and breakfast was good and plentiful. Highly recommended.

What a lovely couple who run the Shoulder of Mutton. Making the stay an experience to remember. Huge range of delicious home cooked food, top breakfast, very comfy room, Haribos left out for the kids! Great.
Sarah, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had a good stay in a clean and quiet room (even with a storm outside). All staff were friendly and helpful. The young lady chef Lyndsey, had started our breakfast slightly earlier than usual to accommodate our travel plans, which was appreciated, as was the delicious cooked breakfast, good quality ingredients, well cooked and served on a hot plate - something many luxury hotels still do not do, so the food is cold in a short time.

Overnight stay en route to Scotland

Food and service was excellent and very reasonably priced, staff helpful and friendly. Room was comfortable but could be a bit too cosy for anyone of larger build. En suite bathroom was definitely a bit of a squeeze.

A lovely village pub,the hosts where very welcoming, couldn't do enough for you and the food was very good especially the breakfast.

Quaint Country Inn

Mark and Lyndsay were excellent hosts. This was my favorite stay in England. The pub is situated in a small community and you could definitely feel that vibe. A local gentleman told us to wake up with the sunrise and it was well worth seeing it come up over the valley with the birds heading out for their day. The food was absolutely delicious (we had the pizza and breakfast the next morning.) I can’t recommend this place enough.

Absolutely gorgeous location; it’s a bit off the main road but so beautiful on top of a hill in a small hamlet; lovely people and great food; great for dogs with nice areas to walk, we’ll definitely be back.

Very comfortable room and peaceful atmosphere. Excellent range of well conditioned local ale in the bar. Lovely food and friendly staff. Will definitely stay again and pop in for food and drinks when passing the area.

10/10 Exceptional

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Shoulder of Mutton. The owners couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. We had breakfast every day - fabulous! The room was very clean, albeit quite small. If you have mobility issues, the stairs may be a problem. Otherwise a beautiful, characterful place.

8/10 Very good

Il pub é bello e la struttura pulita.e ordinata. Si percepisce amore e cura. Il cibo é ottimo l, in particolare il Sunday roast. I proprietari sono gentilissimi e disponibili, oltre che sorridenti e simpatici. Per le nostre abitudini il letto della stanza in cui eravamo era un po' piccolo ma comodo. Le dimensioni della stanza piuttosto ridotte ma c'è tutto quello che serve. Ottima dotazione di asciugamani e cuscini.
