A great find!
I stayed here for 5 nights whilst my wife was undergoing planned surgery at a nearby hospital. My wife stayed with me on the first and last night. The accommodation, hospitality and location were perfect for our needs. We booked a family room to give us a bit of extra space and were more than happy with the newly-refurbished rooms . (On the last night the hotel staff happily relocated us to an identical ground floor room following my wife’s surgery.) The rooms were spotless and well-maintained, extremely cosy with easily-controlled heating and the bed very comfortable. The breakfast and evening meals, which we took on a pay-as-you-go basis were delicious; piping hot, ample portions, well presented and served pleasantly and speedily. The staff were all very friendly and extremely helpful. Nothing was too much trouble! I’ve already told my wife that if ever she needs her other hip doing we’re coming back here to stay!

wonderful place to stay :) very clean and staff extremely friendly. only downside, the bathroom smelled like someone previously smoked inside. we are not smokers therefore this was uncomfortable and unpleasant for us.

Country pub hotel
I arrived for an evening check in through the friendly atmospheric pub and after reading the notes the person gave me the higher floor room I had requested. The room was a good size with top quality style bedding, large flat screen tv, hot drink making facilities and wardrobe space. The bathroom was a good size too and the shower was great after working out how to change the flow from the lower level tap. There is an info card in the room asking for the bathroom door to be kept closed at all times. This is good advice-I experienced just how sensitive the room fire alarm was as it was activated from very minimal and invisible steam from the shower! Free parking on site for guests and there is ample space. Details need to be registered.

Extremely welcoming and very friendly atmosphere. Breakfast times not given at check in meaning we missed opportunity to have a cooked breakfast before embarking on our 4 hour drive home. Overall a very pleasant stay.

A very nice village pub, the staff were very friendly, the room was nice and clean and spacious, breakfast was good. Unfortunately the heating was stuck on and a noise of what we would describe as boiler pump was on which made the night uncomfortable, this was reported to reception.

Lovely overnight stay
We stayed overnight recently. The room and en-suite was very clean and the bed was so comfortable. The room wasn’t big but it had everything we needed. We had a lovely evening meal and breakfast and will certainly stay there again if we are in the area. Thank you.

Very welcoming, although due to unforeseen circumstances, no evening meals were available, only breakfasts, not a big problem as there were other eateries nearby, however the staff were apologetic about the situation and were all friendly and helpful. The hotel room was clean and tidy with a big comfy bed and I got a good nights sleep there. The room appliances I used all worked OK too.

The trouble with a bar hotel
The hotel as a whole was adequate. The room was basic and minimal, but comfortable. The staff was very friendly. We did request an upstairs room, but understood it was not guaranteed. The room we were given was right outside the bar where all the smokers gathered. And there were a lot of them. A bit loud, but the bar closed at 11:30pm. The real issue was the person/people upstairs. They we so loud we could not sleep. The floors are so bad you hear every movement. And they were up all night, keeping us up. Loud TV playing. Stomping around. No consideration for others. Overall the hotel was okay, but our experience was very disappointing.

The property is at the back of the pub and not part of the pub and therefore it’s quiet. The rooms have been refurbished to a high standard . There was a bath and shower in our room . The bed was huge and very very comfortable , we slept well. We would have liked a choice of the cost for breakfast . ie a price for a light breakfast as we had to pay a fixed cost but didn’t want a full cooked option. However , this accommodation is great value for money and is convenient for the motorway .

I would stay again but not in same room.
Bed listed as a double but was two singles joined together. Dip in middle disturbed my sleep a lot. Also one had a mattress topper the other didn’t. So felt very uncomfortable. Shouldn’t have to ask at reception for a shower mat . Should be provided .
