Really great stay, comfy bed, great location and staff wonderful and very welcoming. The breakfast was great except the sausages and black pudding were undercooked and the beans were cold but there was lots of options and plenty to choose from so it was delicious. Room was great but we were only provided with one set of towels and there were 2 of us, rang down to reception several times but no one answered so frustrating, my poor husband hand to using a tiny towel for his shower so not ideal. I definitely recommend staying here especially if you are attending a wedding near by. The locals are all really lovely too.

Had a great stay overnight on a business trip. All the staff were friendly and smiling and my food was served in the bar in good time and tasted fantastic. My room was spacious and quiet and I enjoyed a peaceful nights sleep. Breakfast was cooked to order and was delicious. Would recommend to all.

The building and setting is nice but unfortunately the quality of the food is poor, breakfast was a big disappointment, and the cleanliness left something to be desired. One example (of many), we sat at the same table for breakfast the two mornings we stayed. The first morning I noticed a chip on the floor underneath. I thought "strange they wouldn't have cleaned that from last night." But the next morning it was still there, so who knows how long it had been since the floor was cleaned, that chip could have been there for weeks!? The best thing about the place for us traveling with a small kid, was the huge enclosed garden. Kids could run around and play freely there, which was lovely. But (amongst other things left uncleaned outside) there were tons of old cigarette buts on the ground around all the tables, which was very off putting. If I were back in the area again on a kid free trip I would not stay here again. If I came back with kids I would consider it, just for the ease of letting them play in the massive garden. I would skip the breakfast on a future trip. It's a shame, because the historic building is lovely and the staff were pleasant, but the attention to detail in cleanliness, quality of produce and cooking leave a lot to be desired. It could be a really great place to stay if there were improvements in this area, which seems should be feasible considering the prices are standard to high for a countryside pub with accommodation.

Nice, friendly and accomodating staff. Big room for young family. However the only let down was that the shower which nearly flooded the room due to the build of the shower area/screen. Also we noticed marks on the matress protector when the sheets moved. These were the only let downs to a acceptable stay in a lovely area.

Great place to stay, old pub but the rooms were modernised well with character. Depending on which room you get some are a little hard to find - I had to walk through various function rooms to get to the signs for my room, but once I found it it was no problem to get back. Food was good and can eat either in the restaurant or in the pub/ pub garden for more relaxed environment. Great breakfast and super friendly staff. Nice short walk to get to the river and the lock

Nice big room, breakfast was good, parking was easy and there are loads of spaces set in the middle of a lovely village. My only complaint would be with no air conditioning on one of the warmest days in the year I could not get my room under 26C and that would be in the morning, it was hotter at the end of the day which made it hard to sleep. There was a fan which I used but it was so hot. A small fridge would have been nice to keep some water cool.

After completing a 100km Ultra, my coach to pick me up was 3 hours late! Meant I had to check in at 1am! Not a problem for the hotel at all. All ready when I arrived to my very comfortable room (No11). Lovely bed and beautiful bathroom. Decor of the room original and very well done. No hesitation in recommending.

A very comfortable overnight stay. The staff were courteous and helpful. My room was clean, comfortable and spacious. The breakfast was satisfying. My third visit.

Upon arrival we were told that the room we booked was not available so we were given an accessible room which was large but the room was not clean especially the bathroom. The shower was awful & the worst shower. I’m just glad I am not disabled as we struggled as able bodied.

We have stayed here several times before and love it. It is always great value compared to other establishments in the area.
