A lovely old coaching inn hotel
My cosy room was perfect for me on my own and big enough for my friends to come and join me for coffee after our meal.

Great place to stay
Bed and amenities are great… only problem is parking! Realised it’s a pub also and restaurant but would’ve thought the spaces should be kept for customers who are staying. I know it’s difficult to police but that would have been the icing on the cake for such a lovely place….

Gorgeous hotel. Really lovely, would stay here over and over. The rooms are beautiful. There wasn't always staff at the front desk, and the parking is really tight and often isn't spaces, but aside from that the actual hotel is really nice

Lovely English country hotel. Excellent restaurant and lobby area. No air conditioning, so the rooms in mid-summer are very hot; fans provided but inadequate.

Little gem
A loveky hotel/pub. Rooms were tastefully decorated with nice furnishings. Very friendly staff. Cozy and warm. Lovely food. Authentic. The town was disappointing for shops although lots of places to eat and some pubs. We just stayed in to eat and drink as it was so nice.
