We stayed for one night in April 2013. The hotel is in a beautiful location, and the rooms are great (huge bathroom/wet room) and everything was immaculately clean. All that you need is provided too - wifi, iron, hairdryer, kettle and free mineral water in the fridge. You can tell the owners make an effort to add those special touches... More

Went there today for Sunday lunch and it was absolutely amazing! We had the sharing roast platter and it was absolutely amazing,the meats,vegetables and trimmings were lovely and we couldn't fault a thing.The surroundings were lovely and staff very attentive,we will certainly be going there again.

A birthday meal with my family. Food delicious and really hot. We went for the early bird menu and real value for money. Service very good.

One of the best meals we've had in the area. Mushrooms in stilton and tarragon cream sauce were so good, every single bit had to be mopped up by the brioche. Blade of beef came with a genius horseradish jam and just had room to squeeze in my favourite sticky toffee pudding. Great lunch guys!

We visited on a very busy Saturday night. It was friendly but a bit slow. The tables are quite crowded but that gave quite a buzzing atmosphere to a fairly unremarkable room. Food was definitely a level above most pubs (and many restaurants) with a more adventurous and interesting menu. One of our party has some dietary restrictions which we... More
