Positive: All staff were very helpful friendly and attentive We only ate breaskfast here, however it was delicious especially the Eggs Benedict. The bedroom was comfy. Room 6 is above the kitchen fan however this goes off around 11pm There is a lovely beer garden, plenty of space and lots of places to sit and a childrens play area.

Negative: Shower - Rain shower not very practical without hand held shower held shower - and the ceiling had mould. The pub needs a bit of TLC and specifically, the flooring near the kitchen/dining room needs repairing and some of the window sills in the dining room, the paintwork was chipped.

Summary: Very Friendly and welcoming
