The pub’s location is in a lovely rural location. Our room, ‘Old Bob’, with ensuite, was lovely, big and very clean. The room was very quiet and the bed and pillows were comfortable for a good nights sleep. We enjoyed our breakfast and we’d definitely stay again if the opportunity arose.

Over priced accommodation
Room was reasonable size and modem clean bathroom. But empty picture hooks, second hand bed, broken corner chest draw and the wardrobe with wobbly door really don’t make it as 100pound per night room only level!
