A little disappointed. After dining here on many occasions, I was looking forward to seeing what the hotel had to offer. I was in room 6. It is positioned facing the road. It was noisy with single glazed windows. The road is very busy. The hotel is also positioned on a bend in the road, so lots of traffic builds up and makes noise accelerating when driving off. This includes loud buses, lorries and motorbikes. The room is also immediately above access to the cellar / stores and you can expect lots of deliveries to start arriving from 6am. There was a very strange experience on the last night. Someone parked there and then entered the hotel at about 5am (no reception). They were trying to be discrete, but walked about the hotel for half an hour occasionally coughing and make the floorboards creak (a big issue throughout the hotel). The room is also next to the recycling collection point and it’s noisily collected early in the morning. The walls in the room could be made of paper. You can hear everything from the rooms next door. The room is also positioned immediately above a small function room for the pub / restaurant. Not a problem during my stay, but I’d imagine it could be for others. The décor in the room has been thoughtfully done, but it’s tired. The wallpaper on the ceiling was falling away in many places. The carpets are stained. Lovely staff and some nice touches in the room, such as the freshly baked shortbread each day. The restaurant food was good, but not a

We stayed in the Millers house. Nice touch of biscuits and real milk. Only point about cleaning was the radiator had water marks on. Some room off of ours had a whirring boiler or something but we slept well.

Stayed just one night and absolutely loved it. The pub is cozy and welcoming, and our king room was gorgeous — luxurious bed, beautiful finishings, and lovely little touches like homemade biscuits. Dinner was outstanding — exceptional service and incredible food. The mussels were some of the best I’ve ever had, and both the fish pie and stuffed chicken were delicious. Great wine selection too! Big thanks to Martha, Grace, and Corey for making our stay so special. Breakfast was just as lovely. Can’t wait to come back!

The room was clean and charming although a bit tired (the lamp shades kept tipping over and the toilet flush was loose) but the bed and pillows were comfortable and we slept well. Unfortunately the bathroom had an unpleasant smell when using the shower. If we had booked in for longer than one night we would have asked to move rooms. This was reported and I was told that it would be looked into to get the problem rectified. The staff were very helpful and friendly, given how busy they were when we arrived. We didn't have a pet with us but we do dog sit and are confident that if we had brought her along she would have been welcomed and her needs accommodated. Overall the hotel was lovely and the location very picturesque. It is on a busy road so you can only really venture out by car .
