Comfortable, clean and welcoming, a cosy, well furnished room very different from the standard, boring Premier Inn type rooms of chains. Everything we wanted for an overnight stay.

Excellent Hotel

Room is not big but decent. Very clean and shower is hot. Some rooms are facing the main road. Double glazed windows keep the rooms rather quiet but some sensitive people may find it difficult to have a sound sleep. Continental breakfast is simple but you can have much choice. Highly recommend.

Amazing Hosts!

Emma and her partner were amazing hosts. We pulled up to the door for the main pub entrance and were met by Emma. Even though we were two hours early, they kindly checked us in. They were so warm and friendly throughout our stay. Free continental breakfast or full breakfast options. Emma put us in contact with 2 drivers, one of whom drove us to the airport. She provided support for finding plug adapters, things to do in town, and so much more.

some good points but.....

Lots of good things about this place - wifi is secure. There are usb ports in the power sockets. Crisp white bedding. A comfy chair - but you can't see the tv from its position. Room itself ok but the bathroom let it down. No shelf to put anything and although the toilet and very small sink are clean the shower tray desperately needs replacing and the shower surround, skirting boards and around the door need a deep clean. Inclusive breakfast is limited (though cooked breakfast available at an additional cost)

2 night stay for a running event

Booked this charming local pub accommodation as it was close to our event. The place was small and cousy with a real old pub feel. Very friendly and accommodating owner/publican. We even got a breakfast bag in the morning due to an early start. Highly recommended. PS food was excellent 👌 Will definitely be staying again next year. Conrad and Leanne
