"Great pub, small but comfortable rooms, terrible breakfast."

6.0

Room was ok albeit it small and extremely warm however there was a heatwave on so bar a fan there's not much that could be done about that. Evening staff were exceptional, welcoming and friendly with great food and drink.

Breakfast quality and service was poor. Booked for 7.30 which was earliest option but pub was still shut at this time so myself and others were sat waiting outside. Eventually someone unlocked the door but it wasn't opened and we weren't greeted. Everyone sat down but it was probably around 8.00am by the time "breakfast" was served. Breakfast consisted of 1 sausage, 1 bacon, fried egg, half a tomato, some dried mushrooms and a pot of beans. There was toast and continental available, no butter available and when I asked the lady in the kitchen for some she didn't even respond with words but did eventually return with butter. Breakfast was a real shame and a complete contrast to the service and quality the night before. I hate leaving poor feedback and rarely ever do but I feel it's something the owners would like to know as they made great efforts to get everything else right.

"Attractive gastropub with comfortable motel-style rooms outside"

9.0

This is an attractive old pub that has been sympathetically renovated into a gastropub, with first floor rooms located (motel style) externally, with metal steps up to the rooms, from the car park below. Very pleasant staff, and good food available! Great breakfast and service.

Although the pub is in a small village, it is adjacent to a building site for a new housing estate. I was there at the weekend, so there was no building work going on, but I could hear a fan or generator running all night. It wasn't loud enough to keep me awake though.
