8/10 Very good

Lovely little hotel/pub. Rooms are good and food is also good. My only complaint is the pillows, which have mentioned before. They are flat and hard and very uncomfortable. It is like resting your head on a wooden board. Change the pillows and I would be very happy.

This was the ideal location for us as we were at a wedding nearby. The hotel is lovely, easy to find, easy to park. It's secondary to the pub though so we waited to check in and had to press the bell three times before someone came but check in was quick and efficient when they arrived. No one came at check out so we had to leave the key on the desk. Room was nice, spacious and comfy, the bathroom was too hot, the towel radiator was scorching and no way of turning it down. There was a little road noise but otherwise couldn't fault it. Breakfast was great!
