    Martin was a fantastic host very inviting and accommodating. We stayed over the weekend and wanted to go out early each day before breakfast is normally served at the weekend, Martin went out of his way to ensure we had a continental breakfast put outside our room each morning, which was excellent.

    This place is what I would call a proper old fashioned B and B. Welcomed by the owner martin who also cooks and serves the food and everything else in between. You are left to your own devices but a good chat was welcomed by both parties. The room was large and the bed was huge with lovely fresh white bedding. Ample storage and a large fridge in the room. Although a pub below there was no noise late at night and I slept fantasticly well. The food was cooked to perfection and martin was happy to get some steak in for my evening meal as I'm very fussy and didnt like the other options. The price is excellent for what you get and I would even suggest martin could charge more. Martin made our stay stress free and relaxed and we can not wait to return.

    Due to COVID restrictions evening meals had to be pre booked, not a fault of the establishment.

    We thought a great example of a typical English Inn, the landlord was welcoming, courteous and accommodating to our needs for early rising and breakfast. Would certainly use again and recommend to friends and family should we be in the area again.

    Could maybe do with a lick of paint.

    It’s a quaint English pub/restaurant with a few guest rooms. Old fashioned, which is what we like. The room had tea/coffee making facilities which (for us) is essential. The host, Martin, was great and took the effort to remember our names. Still operating during the Pandemic, there wasn’t a great menu (nothing for Vegans) but we were still offered a substantial meal and cooked breakfast. There’s a Morrison’s just 2 mins away.

    Whilst we amired the owners choice to go retro in his style of furnishings in the room, they were somewhat 'tired'. Whilst the food was delicious, most items were either sold out or limited. We shared the last portion of tomato a mozarella salad. Our steaks and vegetables were cooked to perfection, but...frozen chips? How much effort does it take to peel , chop and fry a couple of potatoes? I myself was a chef for 25 years, and I can yell you, it takes minutes. Sorry, but it took the edge off a fine meal. Lastly, the host asked us about breakfast the following morning, and my wife specifically asked for raw tomato. Whilst most apologetic at breakfasrt, the host said he had cooked the last of the tomatoes, so couldn't oblige. I admire his attempt to provide only fresh produce, but carries too little stock to provide the guest with the experience they expect, and even requested. I'm sorry, but the overnight stay was somewhat overpriced compared to other places we have stayed. Also sorry if we sound negative, but the owner did ask for a review, and this is our honest feedack

    Very clean. Lovely modern shower room. Comfortable bed. Fridge and water provided. Food was delicious. The host was very pleasant, but could be found as a little 'full on'. Locals in the bar described him as being like Marmite. I happen to like Marmite, but others may not.

    Bedroom too small. Put in the attic because we had a dog. It was very warm up there even with a fan. Carpets were grubby throughout but they had been hoovered. Needs updating and outside area needs some TLC.

    When we finally found out how to get in, host was very welcoming and helpful. He wasn’t expecting us at 3pm so had to go and get the room ready.

    This is not a hotel or the welcoming inn with great beers and restaurant we thought we had booked. We arrived and the pub was shut As it is every Monday and Tuesday. There was no food available as food is only served Thursday to Sunday. This is not mentioned on the website nor in the booking details. The owner said I had booked a bed and breakfast only deal and I should have known everything was shut. I have checked your site many times to see if I missed something but I don’t see how I could have known and feel I have been misled by both the pub and Booking.com. Also there a fixed charge of £12 per dog also not mentioned on the site.

    Breakfast as advertised was very good

    Room was very small with restricted height in both the room and ensuite, which we weren't informed of. Bed was very uncomfortable. For the price paid (£100), we were very disappointed, when you pay less at Premier Inn and get far better comfort.

    Our Host Martin was very friendly and hospitable. He literally run's the place himself, so probably works 7 days a week. Very nice Breakfast.

    Lack of choice meals. The rooms were too hot for us first night had trouble sleeping we sorted the radiators out slept better the next night.

    Breakfast was good the sausages were cooked but needed browning off. Evening meal was good but not a lot if choice. No menu’s or specials board. Did not offer any sweets but he made me some crapes served with ice cream. The were beautiful. I think they are struggling because of Covid. Quirky place to stay.
