The room was really good. It just lacked a fridge for keeping cold drinks. There was a spot-on air conditioner, a radio, and TV. The bathroom was modern and roomy. The large garden was great in the hot weather, with lots of cover. The staff were friendly and helpful. A good experience all round.

8/10 Very good

Nice pub and rooms were comfortable, clean with nice decor. Breakfast is self service continental only. No food when we arrived at 6.30pm Sunday. Seems a bit early to stop serving, but it does say this on website to be fair, so our fault for not checking. Had to settle for Dominos pizza delivered to the pub.

6/10 Good

Room was quite nice and the bed was large and comfortable, but couldn't open the broken blind at the window so no daylight. The breakfast situation was poorly explained and we didn't bother cooking ourselves toast which is all that was left at 9am. Things did not go well at the dinner we had there. They forgot to put our starters through. After an hour wait, the waitress came out with our main course and when we asked where our starters were we were offered them after our mains, which we declined. One of our meals was not as listed (salmon trout rather than proper trout) and there was very limited choice of red wine by the glass, which was also very expensive! When all this was questioned, the bar manager started to argue with us and only grudgingly offered an apology. There was no compensation of any sort offered - not even a free coffee. This would have cost the pub only pennies and smoothed our feelings, but was not forthcoming. Although the food we did have was nice, the long wait, the mix up and lack of apology marred the stay.

Lovely staff, nicely furnished and good continental breakfast. Room a little noisy with window open so go for a room at the back of pub. Food sounded good but we didn’t have time to sample. Overall very good
