Recently refurbished Pub with separate outhouses that have been converted into rooms. The rooms were in excellent condition. The fod in the pub both evening and breakfast were delicious. There is a nice outside play area for children which got heavy use.

Great place but disappointed by facilities availab
Really nice staff, food and environment. Bar, restaurants and room really nice but bar area closed with last orders at 9.30 so had to retire to room early after arriving early evening from long day travel, and couldn't check out until 7.45 as no one to open bar area when needed to leave early. Very nice place but won't stay again as need more flexibility for business trip needs

Great pub food, some confusion from staff about booking through Expedia. Not much help at check in just thrown a key and expected to get on with it. Room and shower very good and peaceful area. Told breakfast was not included.
