Staff were nice and friendly. Food was well below standard, breakfast was luke warm, bacon and sausages overcooked. Ran out of butter and had to ask. Sunday lunch was mediocre but a very long wait 1.5 hours!! Ran out of lager one particular afternoon. Room was lack lustre and housekeeping was well below par. Plug in sink got stuck and couldn’t empty, shower doors were on their last legs. Fan didn’t work, no hairdryer. Towels weren’t changed and teas and coffee supplies were not replenished through the 2 days stay, shower gel container was completely empty upon arrival and not checked to be refilled. Wall between our room and one next door was so thin you could hear everything. Very pleasant setting but the whole place was badly in need of repair and maintenance. Dog friendly but no dog bins available unless you walk to nearby car park where there is a council bin.

Had a nice enough stay over the weekend. Room was very small but did the job. The room seemed clean but there were partially used toiletries still in the shower from the last visitor. Didn't have the chance to try the food but the dining area looked lovely and cosy. The noise from downstairs didn't carry up which was a plus. I'd probably stay here again.

Stunning location.

Stunning location, very clean and tidy , lovely food and great walks nearby. Beautiful beer garden by the river. Dropped a star rating due to a few housekeeping issues- no duvet covers on the duvets, only one remote control between 2 tvs, front door handle lose,no facilities to dispose of recycling and dog waste and dead batteries in the candles in the living room.Fresh milk would have been nice in the fridge rather than pots of uht. Overall though, a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

A pity really - great location, lovely building but needs a lot of money spent and a proper restaurant - The food was quite poor and microwaved - Staff were supe friendly. With some investment and given teh size of the inn it could be turned into a really nice destination venue - Try and attract a proper chef!

Booked a family quadruple room for me, my wife, our two sons (1 and 3) and our dog. Called 4 days before to confirm reservation and ensure a cot would be available which was confirmed. When we arrived our room had been given to someone else so was offered a double and single bed room which was to small and had a used towel on the bath which I noted was unacceptable. We were then offered two rooms next to each other, each with a double bed which was not ideal as we did not want to split and be it apart from either child. After a 5-hour drive we accepted to get out of the rain. However, when we entered one of the rooms key fob letter straight in to find another couple lying on the bed. They were understandably mortified so we quickly raised the issue and the staff seemed bewildered as to how this could happen. Having read other reviews, it appears there are at least three or four locked occurrences of the same thing happening. That said Ryan, the manager along with his staff made amends the only way they could with complimentary beverages and sincere apologies. We will never return and have learned our lesson the hard way. Please stay clear at all costs.

The Hotel Manager

The Manager was excellent , however there were a few items on the menu which were not available . The hotel has great character but it needs a few £ spending on it , to freshen the place up .

The place has diminished over the year to now looking old, worn and not very well looked after. From dirty curtains that are barely hanging on the poles to I'll fitting window frames, unclean carpets and cobwebs all over the walls. The room had a balcony which wasn't safely bolted to the wall, the bolts were loose! Couldn't inform anyone as there was no one at reception upon leaving.
