We booked last minute on a spontaneous family trip, super friendly owners and staff, so helpful. The location is idyllic, the rooms are spacious, the bar and restaurant outstanding, something to suit everyone on the menu, the breakfast was wonderful. Normally I can find fault but here everything is perfect. Have to compliment the chef on his outstanding menu and food, would happily stay longer so I could sample every item on the menu .

The chef is top notch The mint pea and ham soup was a masterpiece and taste sensation and the curried sea bass equally as good Delicious The young lady boss looked after me perfectly and the rooms and buildings are very nice. Great experience all round

A little stop for the night. A lovely large room with all we needed, comfortable and clean. We ate in the pub for dinner, a fantastic meal, one of the best pub meals we’ve ever had. Staff recommended a red wine which was delicious! Nice garden and setting, can imagine a super place to sit in the sun and enjoy a wood fired pizza. Throughly enjoyed our stay here.

We stayed here for one night having visited the Haynes motor museum nearby. The pub is a bit off the beaten track on a country road. We were welcomed and shown to our rooms and advised that the pub was closed until 6.00, so we had a chance to get a shower, etc. the room was spacious enough for two of us- we had booked two twin rooms. Tea and coffee was provided and the bed was super comfy. The bar area was welcoming and the staff were all lovely. We all had a delicious meal- I went for Ham Hock followed by Fish and chips, with cheese & crackers to finish with. Breakfast was also good and the staff again were lovely, a good way to start our day before the journey back home. There had been heavy rain in the night and the road outside had a lot of standing water, but looked like most vehicles could still get through with care- my friend has a Land Rover so we had no issues. My only criticism is that the cheese course could have been a bit larger and a choice of maybe 3 cheeses rather than just the one, but it didn’t detract from our overall experience.
