Lovely room and facilities. It is above a pub so has some noise but that’s very well explained. Helpful staff Would suggest a good clean/renew sealant round shower but otherwise just what was needed.

Really enjoyed my stay here, staff in the pub downstairs are lovely, and it was a great and lively place for us to have a drink in late on. It’s probably worth mentioning that there is no parking onsite and you have to find a spot on the residential streets nearby, it wasn’t a problem for us but may be for others, especially if you have a a few bags to carry. The rooms are upstairs and you have to climb up some wooden outdoor stairs and cross a courtyard to get there which might also present issues for some. My room was spacious and clean, and I would happily stay again.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Acommodation itself was generally good. Clean and well presented although showing some signs of needing refreshing - shower base and kettle. Listing suggests this is a pub with rooms. It is not. This is a pub with privately owned letting rooms above it. Due to general area security at entrances and external stairs leading to rooms could be worrying to some guests. Lack of nearby secure parking can also be a concern. That all said rooms were good enough for me to consider staying again if the price was right.

Overall a very good stay. Had no issues with noise or sleep. It's a room above a pub so I wasn't expecting a hotel experience or service. But I did expect it to be clean, which it wasn't. Bathroom needs a good scrub and dusting and the floors need to be hoovered at least.

Issues, sorted and great nights sleep

Ok, so i had issues checking in but things go wrong and the staff were absolutely amazing. Issues sorted, kept informed, apologised profusely and kept me amused in the bar. Superb service. There is an outside staircase, little rickety but safe and leads to a roof terrace which is lovely. The room was clean, fresh, probably the most comfortable stay i've had in a long time. No noise from the pub but ill know more next week, yes im booking again. Thanks guys!

Overall great value for money, liked the location as well. WiFi was spotty, had to find another location to gain stable access and heater wasn’t on upon arrival so it took a while for the room to warm. Otherwise, we would stay again for a quick overnight

Very comfortable stay with a good atmosphere

The staff at the pub were very friendly and the atmosphere was great. The room was as advertised, spacious with a comfy bed, Freeview TV, and ensuite which was a little snug but perfectly usable. The room got a little cold and I couldn't find a way to fully close the bathroom window but that didn't matter too much once I was under the duvet. I was warned that I was staying above a pub on a weekend even so, the noise never got too loud or disruptive, if anything it made my solo stay feel a little less solo. My only gripe was finding parking was a little challenging, I ended up parking behind the pub after getting a little lost down some one-way roads.
