The Porterhouse

Cozy. Beds narrow and felt Old and in need of replacement. Noise from Road in the room we were in. Expect noise from bar downstairs untill it close (not late in our case). Very cozy communal kitchen for breakfast especially if you are the only ones staying.

Great hotel above the pub. Food is excellent. Rooms are comfortable. Breakfast is self service continental in a comunal kitchen. Staff are really helpful.

Would stay again - good value and a delightful set up with your room and bathroom and seperate kitchen facilites - very well thought through

Joshua greeted us on arrival in the bar and showed us to our room on the first floor at the side of the pub. A pleasant room which despite having both sash window open was rather warm, but it was nearly 30°c outside. There was a fan which helped to cool the room a little. The bed, or at least the mattress seem almost brand new and had several toppers and protectors on. A fussy sleeper I was impressed with the bedsheet and duvet quality and laundering. My wife and I agreed it was an extremely comfortable bed and despite the temperature we had a very comfortable undisturbed night. The shower was a soaker type and had plenty of pressure and was great. It had nowhere to put your shower gel and shampoo though and some of the grouting was a little grubby. The room overall was very clean and had available plug sockets at the sides of the bed for phone charging etc. In fact I managed to leave my watch charger there and Elle kindly arranged for its return by post and wouldn’t take any postage payment. We had a very nice pizza, a beer and a glass of wine in the teepee in the small garden out the back which was quite unusual and very pleasant. Breakfast is a self service continental in the shared kitchen adjacent to our room. There was a reasonable choice available on the evening we arrived but by the next morning a lot of it was taken by the only other guests, 2 young guys in the room at the end of the hall, so our choice was limited, although I’m sure if we’d asked the pub would have replenished it, but we didn’t bother. So overall we would definitely stay again and thoroughly recommend it. Thank you team.

Had a 1 night stay at the Porterhouse, with my girl friends. We loved everything about the place. Rooms were light and clean. Had everything we need in them. The kitchen was lovely, it was nice to have a place to sit and have a drink. The continental breakfast had everything you could have imagine in it. We also had lunch on arrival and the Mushroom & Haloumi Burger was fantastic. We are thing of going back just to stay at the pub because we like it so much. Thanks to all the staff. Lucy Norfolk

Upon an early arrive I was politely greeted at the bar, and told that they would check to see if my room was ready, which it was. I was booked in for one night, on a friday, in mid July +28°C. I had the front room by the main road and had to keep the windows open and the two supplied fans switch on all night, which others may find noisy but I slept pretty well. The place was very clean but a bit cramped for a twin room with an en-suite shower room with very good water pressure. I ate in the restaurant and the food was very good. The beer garden is very stylish and a huge suntrap, Shades are provided.

It was above a pub but no noise and very clean roonm, nice kitchen

I picked the Porterhouse due to its location for work the next day. Check in was fine and to have a little kitchen on hand was a lovely touch and help yourself to what you might like if you wanted to use it (I only used the kettle to make a drink) The wifi was not working at all during my stay which was really annoying as I needed it for work and the french doors in the kitchen kept blowing open and the heating would not come on so it was cold. It is right on the side of the road by traffic lights so for me personally the road noise was too much and the lack of internet and being cold meant I didn't enjoy my stay there as much as I could have. The place is clean, the kitchen great and there is pub food which I didn't try, and if you are used to road noise it could be great for others, just not right for me I'm afraid.

We attended The Porterhouse for a late lunch on a Thursday. Service was fantastic and the food was even better! Food was all made to order and we’re offered to make amendments if needs be. We had a brownie for dessert which was beautiful also! Thank you Chloe H for great service and Craig in the kitchen!
