Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Lovely clean room, excellent breakfast. Comfortable bed. Would recommend for a relaxing stay
Very clean room, fresh sheets, towels, bathroom floor very clean!
Room was very quiet , heating could be adjusted!
Reception staff was very welcoming, breakfast amazing!
I spend 2 nights mid week at the boars head. The room was outside the main building and very well laid out wiyh toiletries and snacks. My only concern was the steep step to get into the room. There was traffic noise early mirnimg and evening but it didnt keep me awake
All in all a lovely stay and i would return.
A good stay here,(5 nights)easy to find,easy to park and plenty of spaces. Great staff,all we met were friendly and helpful.
Fan in room good in the hot weather,good food well priced,in restaurant. We stayed in deluxe room which gave us extra space and 2 chairs in room.
a little dated in bathroom area but all very clean.Some road noise when windows were open but not a huge issue for us,we would happily return to the Boars Head
