"A little diamond just off the main road."

10.0

The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The staff in the pub were so friendly and efficient. We had the roast dinner which was large and tasty. The breakfast was very generous and delicious. Overall, we will definitely be coming back again.

Nothing!

"lovely staff - very rural"

7.0

Very rural location - very quiet and great views from the balcony. from the look of the garden and the amount of tables this place must get really busy. Great staff

No wifi and no phone signal. Food was normal pub fayre - but apart from my Olives, to be honest it wasn't to my taste, but perfectly adequate for most im sure.

"Nice pub, poor room"

3.0

Staff & food great

A number of issues with the room. All listed out got the owners to review and comment. Staff shouting for their dog and midnight didn't help either

"Beautiful"

9.0

Beautiful setup, lovely room, very accommodating staff, best poached eggs I've had. Way better than most places for tea & coffee in the room

Couldn't see a blind on the skylight. WiFi & power a bit temperamental in high winds

"A poor experience"

5.0

The location was off the beaten track so peaceful. The breakfast was fairly good, however needed to be hotter.

The evening menu was poor unless you wanted a burger. The bar was very cold and the heating wasn't on, only a woodburner which was hidden behind a table of six people so not much use to other customers who were all sitting in the pub with coats on. The staff were ok but need to pay more attention to their guests. Would like to have spoken to someone on departure but they were nowhere to be seen. The sheets were badly stained which doesn't make you feel very clean and the room on arrival had obviously just been done hence the floor was very wet. It would have been nice if the heating had been turned on for our arrival. The toilet seat was broken and the bathroom door needs serious attention. The rooms with terrace are obviously used for people with dogs which should be highlighted on their site as my wife is allergic to dogs. Unfortunately we would not recommend and certainly wouldn't stay again.
