Room looked pleasant enough but would not pass the "Alex Politzi" test. Dust on furniture, cobwebs in the grate, curtains hanging off poles (due to the type of rail). Towels on the bed not in the bathroom. Room was draughty and cold. We had to get a blanket from the car. Cold water ran hot when it eventually came through. Evening meal was basic but good quality and well cooked but several things on menu not available. Not informed there was no breakfast available, contrary to the website. Had to ask about breakfast and advised to go to the village shop. Village shop does not serve breakfast per se but was able to provide toast and tea/coffee. No customers in the restaurant or bar, we appeared to be the only ones in residence. This is a basic hotel catering for contractors and travelling salesmen, not what was represented on the website. ##### Jonathan Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Jun 16, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Back to the 80’s! Hotel is seriously dated, bathroom had mould and was generally not clean. No easily accessible power outlets and tv bolted flat to the wall so it couldn’t be comfortably watched from the bed. Had to struggle with three separate blinds on the window - felt like I’d had an arm workout by the time I’d finished! - didn’t block out the light or the draft. Cups were dirty and chipped. The keyring is so ridiculously large you can’t fit it in a pocket - I know they need to try and stop people forgetting to leave them when they check out (I had to just dump it on the bar as nobody was around) but it was almost as big as the to remote! Doesn’t serve breakfast but this is not mentioned anywhere on the write up, hotel’s website or during communications or check in - it’s only mentioned on a notice on the wall in the room. The suggested cafe is a good 20mins walk away at a nearby school! Dinner is only available between 6-7pm (again, this is not communicated) and there’s only two options for vegetarians - a £13.00 lasagne or £5.00 soup. I opted for the “home cooked” soup which turned out to be packet soup they’d just added water to - bright yellow with about 3 tiny chunks of rehydrated carrot. One of the worst places I’ve ever stayed in If I’d been booked for more than one night I would’ve cancelled the rest ![Mouldy bath surround](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9D7B4BC9A05266ADE63499B0DCBFA67941D4EDD81718563326021.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Mouldy shower wall](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E1455AEDDA4AC0CE6D039A1375DB62B7A40FDEAE1718563327597.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Mouldy bathroom wall](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/30719432BA789E452283C6EDA1D341369418F1CF1718563319844.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Disgusting dirty toilet brush 🤢](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E6DD686C97E0C0324354E109EB89C1FA9F1273C31718563319400.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nina Aug 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### New owners are great hosts Lovely hotel and hosts.

There was no shower gel or shampoo, but luckily, I always take my own when working away, just in case. The only real negative was the noise from the pub downstairs until 11 pm, which meant any chance of an early night went out the window. If you don't want an early night after a long day's work before another early start, this place would be lovely. ##### Luke Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter Jul 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Absolutely lovely ##### Peter Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### BRIAN Dec 19, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pre- Christmas meeting with family We received a warm welcome from the licensee, who showed us to our room. The room was very spacious and the accommodation met our expectations. Would certainly stay there again if in that area. ##### BRIAN Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan Mar 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great B & B Our fourth visit to this lovely pub & we enjoyed a 2 night stay this time. Currently undergoing refurbishment but this did not negatively impact on our stay. Clean & comfortable rooms in a lovely village. We enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere of the bar, the owners & staff were friendly & helpful & the food was delicious. Lovely ! ##### Susan Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Peter Jul 30, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely old pub with brand new management. Its already very nice, but they have great plans, so i look forward to another visit to see how it's coming on. Good sized room, excellent breakfast and a very good lunch.
