There was a coffee stain by the machine in my bedroom, which spoke of a certain lack of attention to detail in cleaning the room. Otherwise the room was clean and very comfortable, the shower room, towels and toiletries first rate. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Staff were so welcoming and friendly. Rooms we very clean and comfortable, also well catered for our dog.
Hotel looked and felt very festive and.cosy with stylish Christmas decorations.
We visited the Christmas markets in town which was only a 10 min drive away.
Hotel based in a lovely village away from hustle of town. Would recommend
The hotel, pub was absolutely perfect. The staff were excellent especially Tarik excuse me if not spelt correctly.
All staff were extremely attentive.
Room was so cozy, a little in the warm side but we didn’t see the thermostat as slightly hidden.
We ate at the pub on Friday, food, drinks all excellent.
Breakfast was fresh and hot.
We will definitely be back.
Great little getaway. We stayed overnight, and had dinner in the restaurant. The food was great, and the staff were fantastic. Close to Winchester, but far enough to have a real countryside vibe!
Lovely room, very clean, warm friendly approachable staff who go above and beyond to make you feel welcome nothing appears to be too much thank you so much

Really lovely place. Staff were superb, breakfast was great. Room was great, but there were a few areas that could do with a spruce up. Overall though really happy and would definitely stay again…
Last minute booking and a great find. Room was charming and had everything we needed. Dinner was decent and breakfast was super. Really friendly staff throughout. We'll be back
We expected some noise as it’s a pub but the door slamming and constant noise from the beer garden was disappointing. Staff were very nice and the food was fantastic.
