A pleasant stay, but please note my remarks.
Friendly, helpful staff. Large, clean room. Dog friendly. Well-kept Adnams real ale. Good breakfast apart from the first day, when it was inedible after a long wait. The staff vacuumed during breakfast on some days instead of before or afterwards. I would also suggest that the chef and his associated staff do not visibly sit by the back door and smoke, which also drifts into the pub. Go to a private area instead. It doesn't give a good impression. Overall a pleasant stay, but please note my remarks for next time. Thanks.

3 night family stay at the Golden Key b&b
We stayed 3 nights at the Golden Key b&v and it is such a lovely place. Our room was spotless and atmospheric with exposed wooden beans and brick work. It had its own building entrance. The pub below was also great, beautifully designed and the food was amazing. We had breakfast and dinner there every day and it was always really yummy (also plenty of it). All the staff were very friendly. The location for local walks and trips is also perfect. Definitely would stay again. Thank you Golden key!
