A great place to stay for any purpose. Highly recommended.

A really friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Good location for seeing local places of interest as well as having easy access to other places by road and by using nearby rail services. Food available in the evening at the pub was delicious, especially the food we had when they had a Thai evening.

Nothing.

The room was very good and nicely decorated. It was room only but the food in the evening was really good . The staff were very friendly and helpful. A great location in a lovely village.

Nothing--Had a great few days stay.

Friendly staff and great food in the pub. Room was comfortable with a lovely shower. Modern finishes.

Loved the pub very busy in the evening a great food served as it was Thai night- brilliant dishes really tasty. Staff friendly and helpful.

I booked a king deluxe room and the room wasn’t really a deluxe king room as the bed was a double and room basic. Could have been cleaned a little better all round. No breakfast offered.

Good

Good location for our purposes. Nice pub.

No breakfast available. This was stated in the website so no surprise but nearby cafes mentioned as alternatives were closed.

Comfortable bed in small room but bathroom needs airing.

Didn’t have breakfast

The smelly bathroom. Hand wash was empty. Toilet seat loose and hand towel ring was beginning to fall off. There was only the cleaner downstairs working when we left. Had told someone night before that hand wash was empty but no one offered to refill. Also we were not offered a dinner booking when we arrived. Had to go to takeaway to get food and eat in room, which was disappointing. Best to let people know to book food at first booking.

Really comfortable room above a pub with lovely food & service.

The rooms were above a pub but it wasn’t noisy. Really comfortable spacious room with extra large double bed & lovely walk-in shower. tea/instant coffee & kettle in room. Had a nice meal in the pub in the evening with good service. Close to the famous 8-sailed windmill. Parking was in a pub car park that could not be pre-reserved, but there were plenty of spaces.

Nothing really. No breakfast option but wasn’t a problem for us. Steep stairs up to the rooms but not many of them. Could be an issue for those with mobility issues.

That they don't do breakfasts.

A comfy room after a longhaul flight

Nice room with additional heater in cupboard and air conditioning. Staff friendly Lunch meal ham off the bone with chunky chips was very good

Evening meal surf + turf not good value, small steak and 3 small prawns, but maybe I'm spoilt as from Australia Starter was tasty, garlic mushroom however bread was placed in the bowl so was just a soggy lump of bread. This I did point out and refund was asked for but not given
