4/10 Fair

Overall ok, but be aware they do not offer breakfast (even though they sell "half board". Room was nice, I had a great view of the open countryside. Very clean and everything worked as expected. They do need to get a new harder mattress though as it felt it was showing its age. Perfect for a holiday/pleasure booking, but the lack of a desk to work from was not great. Food in the attached pub was good quality and tasty, no issues here. Note the place is very dog friendly, so if like me, you are a bit cautious of dogs, it is something to bear in mine. My real issue is that they are selling a package called "half board" however they tell me they do not do breakfast!! So I paid for and expected it, and it never arrived.

No breakfast at all

Ok but no breakfast included. Some web sites still say free breakfast included the pubs information booklet says breakfast is available from 09.00 but when I called the bar the guy said that they would not be doing breakfast at all due to staff shortages but they may be doing them again in the summer! All very confusing but at the end of the day its now room only

Clean, modern, noisy, no red wine!

The room was clean and modern with a comfy double bed and small en-suite shower room. The walls are paper thin though. We could hear the person on the phone in the next room and the person he was talking to. We were phoned on the day of arrival to tell us that the pub would be closed for our stay due to Covid. Not a problem, we re-booked for 2 days later. Could have been more of an issue for people travelling further or arranging a bigger birthday dinner etc. The pub is clean and pleasantly decorated. The gluten free menu was limited though inc no desserts (ice cream is not a dessert according to my missus 😂). The bar also had no red wine in stock... None! Waiters a little inexperienced and did not understand the difference between gin and gin liqueurs when i was offered a different option due to a gin being out of stock. I thought the management or bar man could have apologised for all the unavailable options (alcohol and food.) Ribs and fries were great, chicken breast overcooked. Good portion sizes and ok value for money. All in all, another business hit hard by Covid, but not to have red wine in a restaurant is in my opinion laughable at best.

Not what I expected

The bar area is lovely, no doubt about it. The rooms are located in a separate building around the back, and inside it felt like student halls of residence. I'm 30 years too old for that again. They don't do breakfast on weekdays. That came as a surprise. What the girl didn't tell me was that I could have ordered a packed breakfast right then. By the time I read this in the small print on the wall, it was too late. There's no hairdryer in the room. This was also a strange one. Again, in the small print on the wall, you have to ask for one. But you'd have to do that at the bar, when it is open, when you discover at 6am there isn't one, there's no-one to ask. Again, I could've done it the night I arrived. Instead, I had to go to work with wet hair. I ordered lasagne for my tea. It did taste lovely, but the centre of it was cold. That put me off. The room and bathroom were spotless. The room, however, had clearly had issues with the shower and a leak, as the skirting board had expanded, cracked, and was hanging off the wall. In all, it felt more like a hostel than anything, and that wasn't for me.
