Our only small gripe was that there was no one available in the morning to order breakfast, which we were told was between 8 and 9, so we didn't have any. We hadn't paid for one beforehand so it wasn't a big issue.

Travelling for Alton Towers this was a lovely little stop for the night before moving on to Alton. Nice small compact room and lovely cosy little bar area for evening meal and a few drinks. The food in the bar area was exceptional, though check the timings, the bar was only open from 7pm for food, don't know if that's normal.

Absolutely nothing about the Inn that we didn't like, only thing that bugged us was the massive potholes on the roads around the area - absolutely no reflection on Margaret and the team, just a watch out for other travellers - take the country lanes easy as they aren't little holes in the road.

Lovely place to stay. Room was clean and comfortable, meals in the evening were fantastic and the breakfasts were the perfect way to start the day. The owner, Margaret, was very attentive and made sure your stay was enjoyable, The bar is a relaxing cosy traditional bar with open fire place - perfect after a day getting soaked through with the rain.This place is perfect distance for Alton Towers - for our next trip I will definitely check availability here to stay.

Location was perfect for Alton Towers. Staff were brilliant and the owner was really friendly and lovely.

The only thing we could fault this stay on was the central heating wasn't working much (the radiator wasnt completely cold) but it wasnt warm enough to heat the room however the staff had already sorted that out by providing an electrical oil heater in the room prior to our arrival which worked very fast in heating the room up.

The building was very rustic and just stunning from the outside and inside. The staff were lovely too. Margaret (the owner) was such a nice lady and we enjoyed her company down stairs in the bar. The pool table was nothing like we had ever seen before as it was a hexagon shape making it a challenge as you can not play the same way you normally would on a regular table (doubling was tough). The bar was reasonably priced and the stoned walls there were very pleasing to the eye. There was a lovely big fire in the bar which heated up the full place rather fast. We picked this place to stay after realising how close to Alton Towers it was, it didn't disappoint, we paid only £6 for an Uber to take us to the entrance. The room was very clean and tidy. The sheets were clean and smelled so fresh. There was hand soap provided in the bathroom along with a body wash in the shower. The pressure wasnt very strong in the shower although the temperature was nice and toasty the way I like it. I really can not fault this stay and can't wait until we can return! The restaurant had a good "Pub grub" menu and the double chicken burger was lovely 100% recommend to try it if your going!
