Jon

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was ideal for what I needed and was a lot warmer than first looked, with it being in the outbuildings I thought it would be freezing but it was sound. The breakfast was decent enough and overall the stay represented excellent value for money. It’s probably a lot more lively in the summer as the pub/restaurant was empty the night I was there which felt a bit strange. I would stay again if in the area with work.

Quiet relaxing stay

Our room was spacious and located on a courtyard away from the main building. The restaurant was quiet so we had a good night's rest. The breakfast was just scrumptious.

Picturesque environment and cosy accommodation

The hotel is part of a historic inn which was very atmospheric. We stayed in a family room for 3 people and the room was warm and cosy and welcoming as we arrived just before 9pm and it was a bit chilly in the countryside. Breakfast was excellent and in a nice dining room in a genuine rural setting. Service was friendly & excellent.

Wi fi might not work in room, depending on which room you are in. Breakfast good. Evening Meal was great. Traditional village pub feel. Close to major road link.
