The pub was lively and welcoming. The room however, although clean, was in need of redecorating and the facilities were quite worn.

The bed cover was dirty and full of stains. When turned the bath tap on the shower head shot off in the air with the water pressure. I was using the bath luckily. Looks like it is broken not even attached! Finding out at checkin that there is no breakfast at all for morning was disappointing. The tea kettle tray on window sill has what looks like a piece of hard bird poo. That’s about it, a bit disappointing overall!! lady next to me in restaurant had an off cheesecake, I was going to order!

God stemning og nydelig mat

Jeg elsket dette hotellet! Rommet var litt lite, men fint. God dusj. Hard seng og harde puter. Restauranten og baren var skikkelig koselig! God stemning og fyr i peisen. Maten var helt fantastisk! Beste på hele turen vår i England. Kommer gjerne tilbake!

A lovely overnight stay.

A lovely overnight stay. Lovely old pub and a great breakfast. Comfortable bed and a nice room. The only criticism is the bathroom extractor fan didn't work and the room became quite steamy after a shower. Putting that aside, we will definitely stay there again.
