Excellent service

The staff were wonderful. The room was a good size and was welcoming. It was a continental breakfast, which suited us, as we were able to get what we wanted and take it to the room to eat. The dinner was delicious and there was plenty of it. Because the hotel is not staffed overnight, they asked if we wanted fresh milk and organised a little bottle for us. They also gave me a large bottle of water, as I had not had time to buy one.

Highly recommended

Beautiful building very clean and cosy. Check in was stress free and the guys who checked us in were friendly and efficient. The only down side was that service was a little slow in the evening in the restaurant. We had to ask for dessert menu and bill.

Very handy and comfortable /clean overnight stay before early morning flight at Bristol Airport. Very easy 15 mins to Airport at 4am. Great check out at that time and even had a continental breakfast available. Well thought out. Highly recommend! Also we had good food in the evening and helpful and friendly staff.

We made a very last minute booking for a brief stay for an early morning flight. We were made to feel very welcome in this lovely pub. They went out of their way to tell us there would be no food available in the evening due to a flood but we were amazed a breakfast was left ready for us if we wanted it at whatever time in the morning. Really comfortable and clean rooms and a lovely cosy country pub setting. Will definitely stay again. Thank you.

Ideal location if intending to use the airport. Excellent quality and choice of food if dining in, supported by a self serve buffet continental breakfast for early leavers. There is also plenty of room in the car park.

Beautiful bar & restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. The room was clean and comfortable. We were only staying to catch a flight the next morning which worked perfectly for us, despite an early checkout we were able to take some breakfast to eat in the airport. Strongly recommended, we’ll definitely go back.

Arrived, nice welcome; taken to room via a hazardous staircase (I am disabled); room seemed ok until we noticed the poorly maintained and unclean bathroom; went down for food at 645pm, to be told food service closed at 6pm but no mention when checking in; told that breakfast (i .e. pastries etc) would be laid out at 3am for early starters, nothing except juice, toast, kettle etc. Nice pub, with grounds, but lacking as a b and b.
