Fabulous weekend away with our dog at The Brown Horse. The staff here are fabulous. From check in to check out efficient and friendly. Praise must go to the restaurant and bar staff for just being so professional and friendly. The chef here knows how to cook with a spin on pub classics. Highly recommended.

Worth the stay

Great staff and hotel. Rooms were clean and and bathrooms looked new. Road noise is quite loud and you can get some smokers outside the pub causing fumes to flow into your room which is not a fault of the hotel.
