Had 3 rooms booked 19th nov, rooms were lovely views wow , pub lovely n clean, food excellent, staff really nice, definitely return! just a few suggestions for room6 which i had, room was lovely with a seperate private bathroom which i wouldn't normally book, could do with some bottled water in room for kettle, towels in bathroom, and maybe a lock on outside of bathroom door, didnt feel i could leave my things in there, only stayed 1 night so wasnt a big issue, but would make stay better for others. 5⭐

Ideal location on the high street. We have stayed here quite a few times and like the little changes like the new handles so you can close the bedroom doors from the outside. Food is reasonable and good quality. Friendly staff and very welcoming.
