3 weeks agoWe stopped here for a couple days. We had a wonderful experience. As soon as you walk in the bar area with the real fire roaring, we were immediately relaxed. The whole place has been renovated beautifully, a quintessential english inn. The real ales were very good, especially the Bisley ale. We had food both nights, which again was exellent. Breakfast was also extremely good. Service from all the staff was exemplary. Our room was huge, and great value. The only problem was, having to go home. Thank you so much, and we will be back.

2 weeks ago5 stars from us. Beautifully renovated old pub that is now exceptional. Lovely rooms, tastefully decorated with very comfortable beds and high quality fixtures. Great local beers in front of a log fire and the chef definitely knows his trade! We really struggled picking dinner as we wanted to order everything in the menu The very friendly bar staff and Megan are such a credit to this place. Ti cks all our boxes and is the place we will stay when next in the area.

4 months agoWent for a midweek lunch recently and got a lovely table next to the windows looking out onto some of the gardens. Menu was varied and the food was served on time and generous portions. Some choices were better than others - the oxtail starters were excellent, as was the salmon en croute main, but the traditional scampi main wasn't anything special. Great ambience and surroundings, I think I'd want to return and try the dinner menu next time as friends have raved about it.

2 months agoSuperb meal our second time Visiting! The car park does get very busy in a Saturday night and can be a struggle. Staff were very helpful, our party were late arriving and the staff did everything they could to make us comfortable and held our table until they arrived. Drink in front of the fire - 🥰

2 months agoWonderful stay. The room was perfect, with lots of thoughtful additions and finished to a high standard. It felt special, not just another hotel room. Staff were all very friendly and helpful, both dining rooms lovely and the food was delicious. Thank you!
