Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The staff were nice. The room was nice however I would say the food is good but overpriced and the bar prices are extremely expensive for a rural bed-and-breakfast, almost 8 pounds for a pint of lager seems excessive. £14 for a full English breakfast with one egg, one rasher of bacon, and one sausage But overall, a nice location and a nice little hotel

Timing is everything

We have stayed here a couple of times in the past. They have just finished a refurb and were also filming an episode of "The Hotel Inspector" so there were some restrictions but as ever the staff were great and the welcome was warm. The food was as good as on previous visits. However it was a little noisy at times and a few distractions for the staff. We will visit again, I'm sure

Small and cosy place

I have stayed here before and it is located in a small English village on the country side. Hiking paths close by and the real feel of a true English village. The hotel is small, but the staff very friendly and welcoming. Rooms are mostly in an annex. Small rooms, but adequate space. Quiet and relaxing atmosphere. The restaurant is great and the full English breakfast gives a good start of the day. There is parking space on the back of the hotel if you come by car.

Charming old coaching inn, great food and service

Enjoyable stay for a couple of nights. Great food, both dinner and breakfast. Friendly, helpful staff. There isn't a single right angle or level floor in the inn but that just adds to its charm. Hot water takes an age to come through in the bathroom but there is sign to that effect. Would stay again.

Nice hotel at a reasonable price in a lovely village overlooked by the remains of a castle. Friendly staff, decent pub grub for dinner at slightly over-inflated prices and an OK breakfast (improve the bacon please). Rooms are reasonable for the price.
