Dreadfull, dont go!
We were awoken around 6.15 with an almighty clattering noise. Apparently they were restocking the cellar, metal barrels going down a ramp into the cellar, directly below our room! Im honestly lost for words, what kind of hotel does that. Speaking with the people doing it didnt get them to stop and when i went looking for staff they were conspicuous by their absence.

Extremely Old Character Pub full of Olde world atmosphere delightful.Very friendly Locals Cottage style bedroom ,but very Old fashioned Shower , ,basin & a Old Fashioned Toilet with a chipped toilet seat such a shame as we do like Modern showers etc these days , but appreciate it’s expensive to refurbish them. Dinner was good no fast food served there , but only a small continental breakfast on offer .in the morning. Great location wry quite lovely Village with Bernard Shaws house to visit , providing you ore book.

The accommodation is typical of an old pub but the bed was comfortable and the shower was fine. Staff were very helpful and we enjoyed the continental breakfast and good evening meals. Parking is very limited, especially when the pub is open and although you can park on the road outside this gets very full too. The area is picturesque and you can do some nice walks. The roads around are winding single track lanes with passing places. Local taxis are available but are expensive.

Country Pub stay
This pub is in the middle of nowhere and therefore we woke up to the sound of birds, not traffic! The breakfast was the best I have ever had. The bed was super comfortable and the bed linen was very good quality along with the large shower towels. The room would benefit from a hanging rail which would fit behind the door. The shower was a bit odd but worked ok. The cubicle would benefit from a wall 'basket' which could hold gel, shampoo etc. We enjoyed our stay and would come again if in the area. The landlady was very friendly and obviously worked hard.

Comfortable bed, very good breakfast but bathroom needs an update and attention round the edges. Basic accommodation but comfortable and staff friendly. A lovely English breakfast with orange juice and tea. I would stay again but don’t expect pristine.

Work trip
Had a lovely stay, staff were very pleasant and efficient. Room was comfortable and clean. But bathroom seemed a little dated. Pub was very nice, food was excellent, would happily stay again. Much nicer than a trip to a soulless purple prison (premier inn).

How do you rate a centuries old inn?
Staff and pub locals were delightful. The inn is quirky. A small aviary and zoo was a great feature for kids and adults alike, with very large rabbit guinea pigs and meerkats. Food was pub grub and didnt pretend to be more. Good ales. A world of difference from chain hotels, although they might have the edge in some respects (especially over a deep, high bath which might have benefitted from a set of steps). But the friendliness of the people (staff and locals) made all the difference.

Over night stay out in the sticks, roads single car wide, beautiful location. Hotel needs a bit of up dating. Food lovely as well as staff. Stayed in the annex as when booked someone was in our room.
