    OK but better en-suite and clear information would be a real improvement.

    Poor communication, little information in the room, just wi-fi code. It was unclear when and where breakfast was served and difficult to gain access as doors were locked and no signage. Breakfast was OK but we preferred to go to a local cafe after one breakfast. Main issue was the 'en-suite'; cracked sink, broken toilet lid and doors that didn't quite meet so little privacy. Access to room was tired.

    Excellent location, we have a dog and there were plenty of walks from the door. Staff were friendly. Clean room and bedding and excellent wi-fi. Good hot shower, windows that opened onto lovely view of the common.

    The room was a little outdated and could do with some tlc. Faded wood chip wallpaper, sticky stains in the carpet and bathroom light hanging off with exposed wires which we kept knocking with our heads because we are tall and the ceiling was low! I could feel the springs through the mattress. It was one of the hottest summer nights, however we couldn’t have the windows open because a neighbour had an outside DJ playing loud dance music past 11pm. There was a small fan but it was inefficient. I think there was only one staff member (manager?) because when we came down for breakfast, he was dealing with a couple’s query (about payment?) which took over 20 minutes and so we were sat waiting before being offered any drink or menu.

    The staff member (manager?) was friendly and welcoming. It was a pretty little pub in a quaint village.

    The rooms need a revamp - wardrobe was falling apart, a leg to replace the leg on the bed could help and fixing the loo seat. No-one turning up to cook breakfast was bad form when specifically asked for a time

    Great friendly staff and excellent food and perfect location for dog walks on your doorstep

    The lock on the room was not very secure but they said they were going to sort it out. The restaurant and bar are excellent and the present owners only been there a month so i am sure that the positive look of downstairs will be repeated in the rooms.

    Staff were lovely and friendly. Food was really tasty and staff knowledgeable about food and wine. The room was very nicely quirky.

    The property is an old one difficult to streamline however our bedroom and bathroom doors didn’t shut with ease, the deep step drop into bathroom is awkward -needs a notice to warn. The carpeting in stairway and hallway is scruffy, needs updating, unfortunately shows muddy footprints and the hall mat a potential trip hazard. The sheet of board in alleyway was wet and slippery, alleyway was unkempt. The shower only adequate and plug didn’t drain.

    Log fire burning in the bar on a very cold night. Good food. Dog friendly, easy access at night to take dog out if necessary. Extra blanket-much needed. Heater adjustable and effective in room. Christmas decorations were cheering and thoughtful. Staff were respectful responsive and friendly.

    Room was a little tired & dated ,could have done with a few tweaks here & there & maybe a few extra touches,ie a welcome info pack ,more towels & a couple of glasses for water in room but it was nothing major & was all functional & did not affect our stay

    Great area to stay for where we needed to be,nice peaceful location ,comfy beds so had a peaceful nights sleep! Friendly staff & had an excellent breakfast in the morning ,compliments the chef!

    They can not do anything to help but the walls are thin so the snoring from next door was very loud

    The scratching inside the walls with it being an old building something was nesting inside, and the height of the doorways isn’t great for someone who is tall.

    It was a shame about the rain! It is a lovely pub for eating outside in the summer!

    The guys who worked there were friendly and helpful and very welcoming. The food was delicious and came really quickly which was great as we were eating before going out to meet friends. The pub had a friendly feel. The pub was well set out downstairs and upstairs our room was clean and well equipped with a nice bed, coffee/tea and ensuite shower. It was excellent value for money.
