This is one of the best country pubs I've stayed in for numerous reasons. The friendly atmosphere, the rambling nature of it, the lovely staff and of course the dog! If you have a dog then this is the place to take it as some of the nearby walking is amazing. And the dog will love the Pigs Ear treat in the bar.
The bedroom was lovely and the bed so comfortable. The breakfast was superb and the staff couldnt do enough for you.
I understand it's also been recently refurbed. But you can hardly tell. And I mean that in a good way; it's lost none of the olde worlde charm that I fear many country pubs are in the onslaught of gastronisation (I've just made that word up, so there!)
