They had porridge pots and snacks in the room as Pub does not do food at all, but for our purposes it was OK. A good location to look around the village and nearby villages, nice old country village right next to the church so you do not need an alarm clock ! And a small tea room cafe opposite the green with good choice of sandwiches and cakes etc
For our purpose nothing to not like

Lovely welcome. Privacy. In a purpose built room next to the pub with a lovely high ceiling. Breakfast pack provided. Location next to the church on the village green. Friendly atmosphere. Nearby pub serving great burgers.
The bed was a little uncomfortable but only one of us thought that so not a major negative.

Beautiful property and very tidy and clean room. Very nice welcome by the staff member. Nice continental breakfast within the room.
Personally, the bed was very uncomfortable for me, too soft.
4.5 / 5.0
Situated in a beautiful village. Well maintained interior, large comfortable bed and the little breakfast basket was a really nice and welcome touch as were the ear plugs for the church bells!
Out of the owners control of course but light sleepers be aware the church bells chime through the night.

Beautiful location. Warm welcome and extremely friendly and welcoming staff.
Room was beautiful and clean.
Only downside was no roof over the bathroom,making privacy difficult.
4.5 / 5.0
Location overlooking Quiet green and next to lovely pub. Very good food in pub around the corner. Lovely staff in both pubs. Very comfortable bed and hot shower.
Would have liked parking space in front of room door, as guests to the pub parked there and created some noise when leaving. Although not too late to affect us.
4.5 / 5.0
Great location - beautifully clean - and well organised
It would have been nice to have stayed in the Inn rather than in an annexe

Church was a little noisy next door, but ear plugs are provided.
3.5 / 5.0
The location was great. Such a pretty village.
The pub has many tables that overlook the large village green. Great for the warm summer evening I was there.
The staff were friendly and professional.
The drain in the shower was not great.
The rooms are next to the Church and the Church bells chime on the hour every hour which might be a problem for light sleepers. Take some ear plugs.
The bathroom is a wet room but I was worried it might flood outside.
The Wi-Fi was just about adequate but possibly not for streaming on demand channels.
No food served the pub and other local pubs in the village were closed down.
The TV had no channels tuned. Not a massive problem for me.

Pub goers not considerate when leaving
1.0 / 5.0
Room was clean and had all the basics. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was basic and the breakfast was ok (pot of fruit, porridge and breakfast bar). The staff in the pub were friendly and the village was beautiful.
The chalet was next door to the church. The church bells rang EVERY 15 MINUTES ALL NIGHT. Obviously we didn’t sleep and this morning s the reason for the poor feedback. We should have been told prior to booking and booking would’ve booked somewhere else.

Very nice and clean. Comfy bed and towels laid out nicely. Little bottles of fresh water and apple juice, nice touch.
No breakfast, nearest was cafe up the village. Would be ideal to have breakfast on site

Rooms clean. Check-in easy. Location was perfect as working nearby.
Decent shower attached to a pub .
The church bells continued throughout the night almost impossible to sleep .
Guess the clue is in the name.
No food available evening or morning apart from small breakfast tray oat's and fruit juice in room. Workers staying away need a little more .
