Nice old pub for one night away.
Will stay here again, when in the area line only downside, which was probably my fault was you have to pay extra for cooked breakfast, however, that was complimentary continental breakfast.
As the Inn was built in 1709, it has been well cared for and it was enjoyable to stay at. Typical for the period the room were small yet cosy, with a good ensuite shower, with good working wifi in our room. Staff were pleasant and we were never rushed and had on occasions to seek staff out, but overall we would stay again, if returning to the area. The Inn's menu's to have dinner were supplied in our room, but having decided what were intended to eat for dinner, we found they had changed a newer dinning menu whilst no wine list or prices were available to allow a choice. There was excellent parking at the rear of the Hotel for guests staying.
Recently taken over we understand so took this into consideration- good value for money as breakfast included. First morning we had the best fried breakfast ever! The second day we had the worst breakfast ever!! Pointed this out to waitress but she seemed to realise the food wasn’t satisfactory but didn’t respond.Burnt eggs and bacon. Room was cosy but bed throw and decorative cushions had stains on - actual bed was nice and clean so I would ditch the accessories. The pub has so much potential so hopefully the new owners will be able to turn this pub around. Excellent location and lovely area.
Only stayed one night. Staff friendly food delicious and very modern bed room.
Only one small criticism breakfast was not hot, assumed mine put to oneside as wifes made. Apart from that small hiccup a wonderful place.
