Stayed here for a night recently. Rooms and decor are clean, tidy and comfortable and in keeping with the buildings age. The small team are all very welcoming , friendly and extremely hospitable , making you feel at ease and comfortable without being excessively ott. The evening menu was very well presented and of excellent quality. Breakfast was again very well organised with all the expected  ingredients of continental and cooked elements with a variety of coffees , teas and juices . Beautiful location  , very “darling buds of May”. The only thing you should be aware of is the restaurant and bar open after 6pm  so if you arrive earlier in the day for a lunchtime meal or  drink you’ll have to pop to one of the other local pubs.

Peaceful retreat in a beautiful English village

Wonderful stay at this pretty little pub with delicious food and friendly staff. Lovely scenery and a short stroll to a local artisan bakery.

Great stay.

If I was going for a meal, then I wouldn't hesitate to give this place 4 stars, but to stay, well, that was a very different experience. 

The rooms are clearly in a converted stable block. No issue there, but seemed closer to its original use than as a nice place to stay. First impression was not great - I'm all for rustic/distressed look, but this room just came across as more shabby - less chic. Not sure if the furniture was meant to look as it did, but it really did not look good!

Little things like missing curtain hooks, making them hang all squint, poor finishes etc, raised my hackles a bit, then the cleanliness issues became apparent... 

Big obvious cobwebs on the curtain poles and dangling from the ceiling indicated the level of cleaning that had been performed. Then the bathroom... the ceiling fan had clearly never had a quick vacuum, and the soap tray was not pleasant. Also in the photos is the questionable electrics situation!

The bed itself was spotless, and it was a bonus that there was a spare blanket... I tend to run quite hot, but I kept my down jacket on when in the room, as it was uncomfortably cold. The shower room has no radiator, but there is an electric fan heater on a timer, once you can figure out how to get it going - I used this to try and heat the room in general up. The soap tray aside, the shower was disappointing - somewhat akin to walking outside on a misty day.

A suggestion would be to have refillable shampoo/soap containers, as the couple of sachets (confusingly kept in the main room, rather than the shower room) didn't go far. To have no hand soap available was also not ideal/hygienic. 

Evening meal was perfectly adequate, as was the breakfast, and staff were friendly and welcoming, but the stay in the room was possibly the worst I have had in decades of travelling. Sorry, but I just could not recommend.

Food good, but staying there was not a pleasant experience - cold, dirty, and shabby

The hotel is part of a historic inn which was very atmospheric. We stayed in a family room for 3 people and the room was warm and cosy and welcoming as we arrived just before 9pm and it was a bit chilly in the countryside. Breakfast was excellent and in a nice dining room in a genuine rural setting. Service was friendly & excellent.

Picturesque environment and cosy accommodation

Wi fi might not work in room, depending on which room you are in.Breakfast good.Evening Meal was great.Traditional village pub feel.Close to major road link.

One night business trip

The hotel was delightful, the rooms were a good size and the beds were extremely comfortable. The staff were friendly and attentive and the food plentiful. A very enjoyable stay.

Well worth a visit

2 Nd time we’ve stayed here visiting family nearby. 

Really nice place to stay, clean and tidy in an idilic  country setting - basically on the middle of a field. 

Staff were all amazing and helpful and friendly. 

Only issue NOT THIER FAULT , £23 in a taxi for a 5 minute drive back. ( same price quoted. Any time of day )  

NOTE: Uber takes payment £7-9 then cancels as no drivers available!

Idilic BnB out in the Countryside.

Stayed for 2 night with friend. From the outside it didnt look much but was pleasantly surprised. In side pub very clean. Food was very good and goid value. Room was bit small but didnt matter as we only slept there and was very reasonable price.
Breakfast good, lovely people who run it.

Very warm welcome and not what I expected

Peace & Tranquility , great place , top nosh & plentiful. Breakfast was freshly cooked & delicious. Highly Recommended
