We loved everything about this unique hotel. The Godwin floor tiles are simply superb, but the 'traditional' feel to the hotel adds to the charm. Terrific value, and we will be back.

A great quirky hotel.

A great find with lovely welcoming staff who were very busy. Nothing was too much trouble either. The evening meal we had at the pub was basic but tasty. There was a lovely complimentary breakfast too.

We were pleasantly surprised with the size of the room and its original features. Needs some renovation in places and more time spent on housekeeping but it’s great that the owners not trying to modernise it. It is also a great location.

Very friendly but not that good.

Friendly and helpful staff who weee manning the bar. No food available and breakfast was Continental only. The shower head had lost its fixing so had to hold the shower head up in the air. There was also no heating. The thermostats didn’t seem to yield the right response. Finally. The mattress was not comfortable and kept me from much needed sleep. The drayman came at 7am so heard all the beer barrels being moved. This is a pub with rooms rather than a hotel. .
