The pub's in a very quiet place and the bed was comfortable. The food is also good - we had dinner and breakfast. It's a charming place but there is a lack of attention to detail, eg, the hot taps in the toilets off…

Lovely pub in a serene setting, with one of the most attractive beer gardens I've visited. Room was neally nice, as was the food. I really couldn't fault it.
