Property was very pet friendly ( Monty even had his own sausage for breakfast free). Small caravan/ motorhome site adjacent to pub, only four letting rooms but excellent value for money,so book well in advance to secure your room, will definitely be returning.

Nice traditional pub

This venue is a good old fashioned pub. The food was amazing. I had an evening meal and breakfast. The price is competitive. The only reason i marked it down slightly was the room having really thick sone walls felt a little damp. I think in summer it's bliss and once winter starts and the heating is on it will be fine.

Excellent place from which to start Thames Path

Caught train to Kemble, then walked here to stay overnight before starting our walk along the Thames Path. Excellent location. Clean and friendly. Evening meal and breakfast were good, although this added to the accomodation cost.

Little Gem

What a gem ! Lovely room small but very comfortable with everything you need - great because door opens onto a courtyard which is brilliant when you have a dog with you. All the staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble - We dined in the bar and the food was exceptional - my pepper sauce was delicious. Breakfast was outstanding - would highly recommend this place. We will definitely be returning.
