All good. However couple next door were up 6.30. We could hear voices which woke us. (Thought the telly was on). Maybe a polite notice saying please be aware voices travel through done walks. Fortunately we did have an early start ourselves. Just a bit earlier

We spent 2 nights B&B with evening meal in first weekend of July. The room was noisy at the front of the pub as we had to sleep with windows open due to the heat, so if thats an issue ask for rooms at the back. All the staff are very nice and friendly and we returned here following an overnight stay earlier in the year, when we were impressed by the breakfast in contrast to other local inns. However the food was terrible on in the evening and the breakfast was miserable...milk laden overly tight and dry scrambled eggs with cold smoked salmon (just out the fridge) laid on to tasteless dry toast. The evening meal included a fish (not distinguishable) with cubes of celeriac swimming in what seemed to be a miso sauce (think - cat food)......sorry guys, we wont be returning....you need to find another chef pronto.

Fantastic property, really comfy bed and spacious room. Really enjoyed our stay. Only thing that could be improved was that the fan was covered in dust. Coming out of winter this is understandable

A very nice country pub and hotel. A really impressive stay with great service and friendly staff. The room was beautiful and very comfortable. We had dinner in the restaurant which was of a very high standard. Couldn’t fault it and close to the airport for an early departure. Highly recommended.

Perfect village pub with rooms. Lovely village pub with well appointed rooms. Very welcoming and helpful staff. Great food. Ideally placed for Bristol airport but not so close that it’s overrun. We will definitely stay again.
