Brilliant! Excellent! We really loved the atmosphere and everyone was so friendly! Absolutely immaculate room and smashing breakfast. Can’t thank all the staff for making our stay so enjoyable.

Friendly staff. I will give you some facts and leave you to make your mind up. Had to return wine glasses as dirty. Had to ask for wine cooler. Offered to take drinks order, no wine list, just offered two white wines with no price known. We're advised food wait was 30 minutes - good idea. When came to take food order were told that no main meal specials were available - fortunately we had back up choice. A while later we were asked if it was OK to bring out starter (one for sharing) could come out with main meals. We accepted. Meals - gammon, eggs, chips etc - good plate of food, well cooked and tasty. Steak and ale pie, made and peas - pie good, peas v small portion, mash only hot in part nearest centre of plate (obviously microwaved) Fish, chips and peas - chips and peas fine. Fish should have never left the kitchen - totally overcooked. Very brown batter, limited fish when you could extract it from batter and consequently dry - price was deducted from bill. Will continue to use as a pub but not to eat.
