We, hubby and I, stayed for one night on a Saturday. Friendly and helpful staff. We had a twin room which was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. It had a fantastic complimentary tray, including a mini fridge with fresh milk and a couple of two finger Kit Kat bars. Evening meals were large, so do take an appetite with you. Breakfast was a combination of cereals, toast and full English with fruit juice, tea or excellent coffee. We will stay again when next in the area.

We stayed here as we were attending a wedding reception the following day. Upon arrival the staff who greeted us were so friendly and helpful. We had Room 2. It was well presented and comfortable with all amenities catered for. The full English breakfast the next morning was substantial and tasty. Upon returning from the wedding for the reception, the room was beautifully set up. The meal was a carvery and was one of the best we have ever had. The staff were extremely attentive and well organised. Nothing was too much trouble. Would love to visit again. Thank you to Charlotte and the team for a memorable stay.

Lovely hotel. Staff are really friendly and accommodating. Very dog friendly and you can tell the owners love dogs too. Good size rooms, comfy beds, very clean. Lovely bathroom. Would definitely recommend and we will be coming back. Lovely little stay 😊

We stayed two nights in room three, which is absolutely lovely. Plenty of space, and very clean, as well as stylish. The breakfast (full English) was absolutely perfect, and we had two evening meals - group of 7 adults and one dog - and could not fault anything. The food was delicious and the staff very accommodating. I was a bit worried about the negative reviews I read on TripAdvisor, but they are absolutely wrong!

Returned to The Crown while on holiday in the area. We went twice, once for the Sunday roast meal (excellent) and later in the week for an evening meal. For both there was a good variety of options and we thoroughly enjoyed the food. We met Lewis (one of the new managers) who has a number of plans in mind to increase customer satisfaction. However I would urge caution not to introduce too many changes too quickly - check what your large "customer base" (i.e. the locals) want first! We also would like to compliment Sally on the standard of service that she provided - thank you.

We stayed here earlier in the week with some family members (we had 3 rooms) and we couldn't fault it. The rooms were cosy, warm and of a very high standard (& super clean) - much better than some of the so-called luxury hotels I've stayed at. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, especially Charlotte, and we had a brilliant breakfast too. I'd definitely stay again so we could spend more time in the lovely warm bar with it's gorgeous fire, and try some of the other food too!

Visited with family at the weekend & the service, food, atmosphere etc where fantastic. So nice to see the pub back to a village pub with old fashioned values. All down to the new owners I expect. Who make you feel very welcome. Lovely atmosphere also. The food was proper pub food, homemade & generous portions. Left feeling very satisfied & desserts where just as good. Service was great all with a lovely smile. Can’t wait to return. Keep up the great work guys. 😊

We went to The Crown for a family get together for Sunday Lunch. There were 14 of us in total. Lovely warm welcome, service was spot on, food was delicious. We had a vegetarian who was catered for with no problems. Cannot fault our visit at all. This is our 3rd visit since the pub changed hands and we will be back many more times! Highly recommend the food, service, atmosphere and everything else! It’s now back to it used to be and should be! Keep up the good work Team Crown xx
