Warm friendly greeting. Room looked pleasant enough but would not pass the "Alex Politzi" test. Dust on furniture, cobwebs in the grate, curtains hanging off poles (due to the type of rail). Towels on the bed not in the bathroom. Room was draughty and cold. We had to get a blanket from the car. Cold water ran hot when it eventually came through. Evening meal was basic but good quality and well cooked but several things on menu not available. Not informed there was no breakfast available, contrary to the website. Had to ask about breakfast and advised to go to the village shop. Village shop does not serve breakfast per se but was able to provide toast and tea/coffee. No customers in the restaurant or bar, we appeared to be the only ones in residence. This is a basic hotel catering for contractors and travelling salesmen, not what was represented on the website.

Great B & B Our fourth visit to this lovely pub & we enjoyed a 2 night stay this time. Currently undergoing refurbishment but this did not negatively impact on our stay. Clean & comfortable rooms in a lovely village. We enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere of the bar, the owners & staff were friendly & helpful & the food was delicious. Lovely !

Shocking, and expect a refund Well…. The manager/host was a total dithering wreck. We soon were told that there was no breakfast even though breakfast was included in the price. The rooms were so out dated and needed attention everywhere. Paint flaking off walls, mould on the window sills. We were then advised that there really was no evening meal as there had been a family party ( their family) and he wanted to leave at 7pm, and didn’t want to turn the friers on. The barmaid ordered us a Chinese locally which was nice for the price. The landlord was still there when we went to bed at 10pm. Very disappointed and would not recommend anyone else staying there.

Leuk voor een nacht, maar dan is het gezien Bijzondere ervaring: op rijdagavond wordt er geen eten geserveerd, op zatermorgen is het ontbijt pas vanaf 9:00 uur. Dan zijn wij allang weer gevlogen. Weer een B&B zonder breakfast. De douche kregen we niet aan (vreemde constructie) en de deur kregen we niet op slot (ook een hele vreemde onbekende manier). Verder wel lekker rustig en pubachtig.

Disappointing Unfortunately not many redeeming qualities here. Room was very dated, and in need of some repair! The water from thexshower trickled out like it was being powered by a hamster on a wheel. The room was cold becasue of the single glazing, and the heating not on. The single glazing doesnt help the road noise either. The bar person had no idea what the wifi guest code was and gave me the one from the bar...however this didnt work in the rooms so no work done that evening! The food menu was low in choice, but was adequate, but the breakfast had to be left. I think the water from the poached egg was left in the ladel so everything was swimming! Lovely setting, easy to park, but id be inclined to drive a number of miles out of my way to try somehwere else.
