Despite appearing to be an ordinary pub, the accommodation was modern and recently fitted. The room was comfortable with a big bed and a good private bathroom. A well equipped communal kitchen was also available. We were made welcome.

Booked for the wrong day, but owner was fine about it. Felt more like a room in a house rather than hotel, but accommodation was fine.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Really nice hotel with a very good room and great location and very quiet. The room was a downstairs one with a small kitchenette, this had a fridge - microwave and air fryer along with kettle tea and coffee, crockery and a sink. The bathroom was good and the room had at least 10 power sockets and also excellent WiFi. Not perfect though. The TV was a little awkward as you had to access the channels via apps wardrobes where free standing and did not feel secure. In the bathroom the only issue was the entrance to shower is a little narrow. The hotel does not do any food but is attached to an Indian restaurant which serves dinner. The food here was very good. My only other gripe is checking thee is no real reception and I had to hunt around for 5 mins to find how to check in. I walked into the village, about 10 min walk. There is a nice pub which does traditional English food which looked good. All in all a solid 8/10
