We have stayed here four times and as always we’ve not been disappointed. Rooms are very nice, staff very welcoming and friendly, food very good and the breakfast is fantastic.
Great find. Fabulous food - Indian evening meal and full English breakfast. Lovely country pub with roaring log fire. Cosy, clean bedroom. Excellent staff. Will stay again.

Nice country pub/restaurant with rooms. Rooms are comfy the bathroom is modern the rooms quaint. Onsite parking and car charging for those with EVs. Food is good evening menu variety was an eclectic menu of À la carte, Indian food and pub classics. A new one in my experience. Breakfast was ok. Would stay again when back in the area.
This was the second time to visit The Blue Boar. They had a problem beyond their control in that the boiler broke so we had three dsys with no hot water . The rest of our stay was great . Steve front of house manager was great and keeps things running like clockwork. Lucas the barman is an asset to the establishment what an absolutely nice person . We were wonderfully greated by Roxy a waitress who remembered us from our previous stay . All in all a great three day's and I'm sure in time we will return .
Very disappointing. A lovely character property but a dire stay. Upon arrival we were told unapologetically that the boiler wasnt working and were unable to have a hot shower. Our evening meal was quite pleasant but service was very slow. Breakfast was dreadful with an apple being the only fruit offering. No apologies upon leaving summed up the attitude of the staff
