We booked the accommodations in the Balfour Arms in May and they canceled our reservation 2 days before we were to arrive from Australia. They offered us NO help find other accommodation , made the excuse they had double booked the room and left us high and dry.  Very unhappy and lucky to find somewhere else at this time of year.

Very dissatisfied wouldn’t book there again

Extremely noisy as they have a band on a Saturday night who was playing until midnight and might as well be playing in our room.Was advised it isn't mentioned on hotels.com but it does get mentioned if you book on their website, which didn't help.

Noisiest place I have ever stayed.

Wonderful place with friendly staff and good food.Stayed one night.  Had lunch and dinner there.Participated in the bar's trivia night - finished last but had a great time.Free on-site parking, and free breakfast in the morning.

wonderful place

Room ok. Stairways to room dirty . Live band on till 10pm  . Told would be towels in room later . We asked 5 x , told would 5 mins 3 x , at 9 . 30pm . Asked a young girl for towels as the people running the place had disappeared. Received at 9.45 pm from young girl . Told at breakfast only limited food , due to no deliveries . We had a bacon  sandwich. The place should be removed from list.  The trouble with these places they have taken your money, before you arrive so you cannot get any refund.

One to miss

This is a pub - with pub food which is good.  The accommodation-the bed was comfortable - the toilet seat was not attached, there was a missing plug in the washbasin, and the bedroom door was almost impossible to lock.  It is such a shame - obviously a lack of staff - we stayed due to the reviews, but we found they were not in keeping to what we experienced.

A pub.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend you try it. Has a new owner who is in the process of upgrading areas and training his staff even more. Our bedroom was comfortable, just no hairdryer at present. There was an issue with the heating while we were there but this was solved with a portable heater till it was fixed. Met two other lovely couples (only three rooms), we joined up for a great evening of quizzing, we came second!! Also have other entertainment throughout the week. Food was great with an excellent breakfast. Once this new manager upgrades some things it would get an excellent all around from us but we would go back again anyway as we were made so very welcome.

Loved our stay.

Was worried when entering property as porch was full of old cigarette stubs and rubbish but pub was clean and staff very welcoming. The bed was extremely comfortable and the breakfast far exceeded our expectations. Would stay again.

Staff welcoming

The double room we had was excellent, spotlessly clean, very comfortable, lovely bathroom. We stayed for 2 nights, the beds were not made for 2nd night, cups not washed, no extra coffee or tea.Breakfast for 1st morning was awful, full English ordered, the waitress had to go to Lidl to get eggs as no eggs available, eventually arrived, bacon cold, fried eggs and mushrooms running in fat. Terrible.2nd morning the chef didn't turn up so cleaner got the landlord to cook our breakfast breakfast and that was cooked beautifully.The other problem we had was the noise, room directly above the bar, band playing both nights and parties. First night noise stopped at midnight second night went on until 02.30. There was 1set of earplugs provided in the room which had absolutely no affect at all against the constant noise level. Extremely disappointed stay.

Very unhappy with our stay

Great owners and staff wouldn't hesitate to book again if in the area excellent value for money

Nice overnight stay food from the restaurant was very good. Recommend the Rib Eye.A bit of noise from downstairs, but it is a pub after all. Quiet a little later so all good.
