Excellent stay, I had a compact but functional ensuite single room. The continental style breakfast was very good with lots of variety. If I'm in the area again I will definitely stay again.

Overall, the stay was good. Couldn’t fault the staff - welcoming, friendly and very helpful. The accommodation was very basic and tired. Needs an update. Again, the staff were lovely.

Nice little pub

Very nice staff, unfortunately it was one of the most hottest nights of the year, no fan in the room and couldn’t sleep, not the hotels fault but a fan in the room would have been a help, but again nice pub and nice staff

Very decent overnight stay - Recommended

The room was fairly small, and quite basic, but the price was also very reasonable considering breakfast is included. Everything was clean, and everything worked, so as purely an overnight stay on a budget it's pretty much ideal. Not noisy, even though it's over a pub. TV good, shower works fine, comfortable bed, and the breakfast in the morning was also very good. They don't do a full English (fair enough at this cost), but have hot eggs and a very good spread on the continental side. Recommended.

This was the perfect place for me to stay while visiting family near by, Nigel and everyone at the Rifle were welcoming and helpful. If you’re looking for a clean, affordable “room at the inn” this comes highly recommended.
