I'll summarise. We were a party of 10. Our organiser asked if vegan options were available when arranging our lunch as I wouldn't have joined them if there was no vegan meal. I ordered a soup for a starter and 4 others had fishcakes. I never received my soup. The main meal came in dribs and drabs and we had to ask for sauces as we weren't asked. A small bowl of vegetables (hardly enough for 5, let alone 10) was set at the far end of the line of tables. A single small bottle of water was provided and the server stated he had brought the water when more was asked for. I paid for my partner and I at the end. She had fishcakes for a starter and we each had what amounted to 3 small flat mushrooms with a bit of ratatouille on top. That came to £40. We left to go home so I could get something to eat.

Beautiful, spacious character room at picturesque inn in pretty village. Food was of a very high standard. One of the best meals I’ve had this year. Would definitely go back

The location and food here is excellent. Unfortunately the service wasn’t very good - we had reserved a table for lunch which was in the main pub area rather than the restaurant area. This isn’t a problem, but it seemed the staff forgot about us and we had to go up and find them to order after waiting quite a while, and had to do the same to order desserts (even after asking one of the stuff who came past our table and cleared our plates). Typically I do not leave reviews, but hopefully this will ensure others aren’t forgotten about when not seated in the main area.

2 night stay for my wife visiting the area. Parking generally good but got packed during the evening due to the pub/ restaurant customers.
One point of note for solo female travellers is that the site isn't manned at night and the mobile phone signal in the area (on O2 anyway) was non existent.
Nice room. Nice breakfast.
