Food excellent. Nice country pub. On the downside the bathroom was not very nice and not too clean. The towels had a very musty smell. Had to ask for tea bags for the room. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Geoffrey Jul 9, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### One evening at The Shoulder, Hardstoft Good morning, I was booked into this Hotel for two nights - 8/07 & 9/7\. I will not be staying tonight. When I left this morning at 06.45am, no staff in the hotel, so left the room keys on the bar counter. Upon arrival last night I was greeted with the comment 'Nobody told me that you were staying'. No food available / no chef booked, for evening meal or breakfast on Mondays or Tuesdays, the owner advised that he could send out for a takeaway! Room musty with damp. Bathroom - black mould on the ceiling. Bed very uncomfortable. This establishment is definitely being crossed off my company list. ##### Geoffrey Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 26, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness Nice room good welcome and good bar stay for a function so never got to try food ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### James May 16, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Don’t go there. No one to greet you. Conditions were awful. Mold in bathroom. Musty smelling. No one to check us out except the janitor. Worst place we ever stayed. ##### James Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacqueline Apr 4, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Absolutely Lovely! Fabulous pub with B&B. Couldn't fault the staff, service, food/drink. Rooms were lovely. If I had to pick anything that could be improved I would say the shower in the room as it was a case of scalding water or cold, but this certainly didn't spoil our stay. We will definitely stay many more times as it is around the corner to where we visit family. ##### Jacqueline Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 17, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities The service a staff were wonderful, polite and made you feel very welcome. The food was fabulous, and good value for money. The only thing that let the stay down was that the room was freezing, even with the radiator on as high as it could go, both my Daughter and myself struggled to sleep, having to put our cardigans and coats over us, to get us warm. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 28, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The landlord and all the locals made me very welcome and it certainly beats a corporate hotel ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Paul, Liverpool Nov 12, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Good generally but realised after leaving that i was charged for breakfasts that should have been included. ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ian Nov 2, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Friendly and helpful but not for me.
