This was exactly what we were looking for, we needed a bed for the night as had met friends for dinner and drinks while they were on a canal boat holiday. We had to leave early the next morning to get back for work. It was clean and tidy. We wouldn’t stay for a long stay but for the one night it was good. Staff were very nice, friendly and welcoming.

the room was very very small (i had to put my small suitcase on the bed to open it up and then in front of the door at night as no space around the bed. the room had a strong smell of moth balls. the window was painted open so couldnt be closed to shut out the noise from a generator outside in the night and then rubbish pick up in the morning.

The room was tiny. It was also incredibly noisy. The bed was uncomfortable and leaned to one side. I couldn’t get the TV to work. The food was average at best.

Disappointing

Room on the cool side due to window wide open when we entered. No cups and Coffee Machine could not use. One bottle of Water in a double Bedroom. We asked for heater in room but never got one. Carpet on corridor and Staircase very dirty. Food was very good.

This pub has a parking system that apparently is designed as some sort of fraud. Upon checking in, one must register their vehicle on a self service computer, which despite several attempts was not working. We then have vehicle details to staff who assured us they would enter it. We were staying at the hotel! A few weeks later I received a charge on my credit card for £90, yes £90! This was more than we paid for the room. I appealed this charge on the clear basis that we were staying at the hotel and there is very clear evidence of this but after 2 weeks I get a clearly bog standard response saying appeal refused, I obviously didn’t see the signs. It is clear that they didn’t even bother to read my appeal and that this is a rip off. Avoid this place, now I see why we were the only ones there.

Liked: Amenities
Room was extremely small - no room for suitcases or bags. Midgies were an issue and had to close window - being so small the room was super stuffy. A fan was available which helped a little. If stairs are an issue for you - find somewhere else. Okay for a quick one night stop but wouldn’t recommend for any longer. Dinner (lamb) was amazing - highly recommend the food.

Disliked: Staff & service
Newly decorated/refurbished with a nice bathroom & comfy bed but it was really tiny and I had a view of the bins. Have to enter via the pub which smelled and was not inviting. The exterior door just below my room didn't close, let alone lock. The stair carpet and hallway chair were stained. The wifi is very very poor so I had no internet access, and no cell access either. Staff told me this is because it's a listed building and because of the rainy (but not windy) weather. My cell (vodafone) also didn't operate inside, so I was isolated and couldn't do as I had planned. I cancelled my 2nd night which they refused to refund.

Good place for a stop over and a bite to eat

Plenty of parking on arrival, nice pub with room upstairs. Check in was easy and hassle free, room was very small but expected from reading previous reviews. Very smart and tidy though with great shower. Mattress a little unforgettable. Poor wifi signal. Pub/restaurant service eas excellent menu was very creative with plenty to choose from. Little disappointed with the quantity of the meat but overall was good. Breakfast started at 8:30 and was the best ive had in a long time. Id stay again as a stop over but due to the room size it would get quite anoying.

Will not recommend

The room was small and everything was very old and worn. Bed was so squeaky that we woke up every time one of us turned. There was a rat in the restaurant area running in from the kitchen.

Good overnight stay

Nice looking pub, plenty of parking and the staff were very friendly. The room was ok, beds were clean and comfortable, not sure about what looked like a half eaten choc chip cookie left in a jar by the coffee. Did not like that the outside door was to be left ajar so anyone could walk in and if you let it shut by accident then you were locked out. I did this but luckily the pub was still open. For the price I would stay again for the night but wouldn't want it as a base for any longer

It was ok

First, it was not horrible. Very affordable. The beds were broken, tiles cracked, large crack in the wall of the room. For a cheap stay it was ok, but you really get what you pay for.
