Friendly atmosphere, jovial and approachable owner and staff. While the food is perhaps a departure from typical English fare, its still quite good. Overall a great way to experience the real England.

Perfect for a quick cycling or walking break.

A very enjoyable stay. Room was basic but clean. We were given a very warm welcome by Jason who showed us to our room. The Thai restaurant which is located at the Pub/Hotel served an absolutely delicious 5* meal and is a must if you’re planning on staying here. The location is perfect for a hiking or cycling getaway break.

Rooms are very small outside near smoking area etc not the best location if folk are having a chat. Nice pub with Thai food, breakfast is a pot of instant porridge and fruit. OK for a night but wouldn’t want to stay longer.
