Lovely big airy rooms with the comfiest beds Good parking - even though the steps down to the pub were steep my 96 year old mum managed them Land lady and mum made us very welcome Breakfast included was a bonus - cereal or full English which was lovely Evening meals were really good quality and value for money We stayed on a night with live music and again this was really good and finished by 11pm so a little bonus

I have never stayed in such a bad hotel! As soon as I stepped into this hotel, the musty smell of the carpet and the smell of dogs hit my nose. The outdoor area was full of garbage and cigarette butts. The tables and stools in the underground bar and restaurant area were all stained, making people uncomfortable. It was even more terrible to go up to the room. There was a layer of brown dust under the countertop, the pillowcase was yellow, and the wooden frame of the window was rotten. It couldn't be opened and closed at will. In view of this, we had to clean it ourselves once before we could barely stay. We rented three rooms for three days. The basic configuration of each room was not complete. There was no soap, no cups, toilet paper, towels... We had to share it with each other. The light bulb in the room was broken. It was not replaced three days after the complaint. One of the rooms was even worse. The wash basin and the stand were clogged... We tried hard to find a useful room in this hotel, but there was really nothing!

We stopped here for drinks and lunch. Very quiet, despite it being holiday season. A small menu, but sufficient variety of choice to cater for non meat eaters. Prompt service and reasonable prices. Would come again to try the evening specials menu. No specials available on a Monday.

Do not stay here the hotel rooms are dirty and smelly there is no WiFi or breakfast and worst of all the rooms are being let illegally as they do not meet fire compliance regulations

Was so looking forward to visiting The Black Swan for Sunday dinner, I rang first to book a table, and to ask about vegan options, they reassured me that they had them. We arrived and ordered our food at the bar, the lady asked if there were any allergies, and again I reiterated no milk or dairy. She went on to say that they had no ' nutless' roast but could make me a vegetable alternative, I agreed stating that I am vegan so no milk or dairy. She agreed. When the food arrived, it was a plate of vegetables with Yorkshire pudding (!) and cauliflower cheese!! I explained again that I was vegan , she apologised and said there must've been a communication problem!! She offered me a refund ( half the price of my meal) very poor service, pub not suitable for vegans.

The electrics (lighting) didn't work in the shower room so they moved me to a room that hadn't been cleaned, everything was used and not cleaned including carpet, shower, no towels, so I took the ones from the first room. Staff were dismissive about it all. The only thing done was changing the pillows. Then they left to attend to a party downstairs. I felt as if I was an inconvenience to them, including the handyman who couldn't fix the lights. I was the only guest there for the night. The next morning I went downstairs to leave asap, there was no one there to see me off too.
