Lovely little hotel very friendly staff, and pet friendly. Food was good and my husband had a huge fried breakfast. Mine was more than adequate. Dogs welcome in bar and lounge so very helpful for us.
Had a little trouble parking as no dedicated parking but found a spot later in the free Car park behind the hotel. Bed was very comfortable, room was clean apart from a few stains on carpet. Am assuming that was done by a pet, but not ours I hasten to add. All in all we really liked this hotel and surroundings so would go back again if on area. Thank you

Fabulous!!
Stopped in the “Brewood” room on a Tuesday night.
Hadn’t thought to book a table for dinner, which was rather last minute as we had 6 guests joining us.
The staff were amazing; despite being fully booked, they opened their private dining room for us.
The food is fantastic, and the included breakfast was brilliant quality. Top quality sausages!!
Thank you for having us!

Comfortable quirky hotel.
A refurbished quirky hotel with friendly staff, good food and comfortable accommodation.
Steep winding stairs to upper floors need care to navigate but was not a problem for me.

Pleasant
Clean and comfortable, nicely furnished. Bed was comfortable. Great breakfast, staff were friendly and helpful. Only downside was a bit of dirt on the chair in the room and shower water was intermittent.

Little gem of a hotel and restaurant combined
We stayed as a stopover on our journey to the north west at Christmas time and it was the perfect little stopover. The village was super cute with loads of Christmas lights and I think we counted 4 pubs in the village! The hotel itself is cute and quite small but lovely staff and service and we had a steak in the restaurant which was superb. Overall very pleased and great value for money.

Lovely overnight stay. We booked a meal in the restaurant for hubby's birthday, & finished it off with cocktails, before retiring to our room The staff were friendly, the room was pleasant & overlooked the village centre.
Nice, pleasant relaxed evening.
We enjoyed our breakfast the next morning too.

Lovely country pub
Nice cosy pub and rooms. I had breakfast which was good (poached eggs were very good) but didn’t eat dinner. I have stayed before and evening food is also good. I had some work to do and struggled with wifi signal but it’s a nice place to stay

Lovely public space in the hotel. Staff all very friendly and efficient. We had an amazing breakfast.
The beds were very comfortable but we marked the facilities down purely based on a very squeeky bed, however we were only there for 1 night so didn't give management the chance to sort it. I'm sure they would have done.
Would definitely stay there again. Lovely little town too.

The downstairs was very nice and clean and comfortable. The bedroom was small and a bit shabby the maid service not very thorough. The meals were very good, apart from Monday breakfast with no sausage or hash brown.

Wonderful staff who were friendly and helpful. The village is lovely. But the room was in a poor state of repair and needs renovation. Not the cleanest room I’ve ever stayed in and the shower traps were blocked and had to be emptied to avoid the shower flooding. But we still enjoyed our stay.

Nice for 1 night
Small village which was lively for when we stayed. No lifts so dragging your luggage up and down stairs for one night is painful. Bed comfortable but tiny room. Are in restaurant for dinner but was very average. Breakfast was included and was a lot better. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Overall a nice place to stop for one night. Parking a bit far away but corner stores and other pubs close by.

Very good standard of room and bathroom facilities and cleanliness.
Friendly reception.
Cooked breakfast was good, but disappointed by no muesli or yoghourt and let down by no ground coffee without an extra payment!
PLEASE OFFER "PROPER" COFFEE AS STANDARD

I’ve rated this hotel ‘good’ based on the warm welcome and attentive and kind service from the manageress. She was wonderful. The room to be fair was very tired, only one bedside light, harsh lighting, strange glass door into bathroom ( the bathroom mirror was way to high, it had no fan so steamed up, no storage for my wash bag except a wobbly small sloping shelf) so don’t stay here it you want a luxurious stay. However it was clean and the bed was comfy. The duvet was so thin and the room very cold, so at 11pm I asked the manageress for extra blankets and reported a fan that was going off below and disturbing us. She was super kind, and sorted the issues immediately for us and we slept well. The breakfast was pretty good, but only coffee from Nescafé sachets! I would have really loved a proper good quality cup of coffee.
