    The host Sarah and the lady who was working the bar were extremely helpful and made us feel very welcome. Nice garden at the rear to sit and have a drink before dinner. Swimming pool for those that are brave enough! The breakfast was nice and drinks reasonably priced.

    Great hotel. We have stayed here five-six times now before travelling to and from Jersey. I would thoroughly recommend The New Inn, great food, friendly staff and a good nights sleep.
