10/10 Exceptional

It was a beautiful period room, the pub downstairs looked amazing, we got in quite late so it had stopped serving food sadly. Really quiet over night and a beautiful location. I will be returning with more time!

A wonderful little b&b in a beautiful location. We only used the venue as somewhere to sleep but would love to visit again and use the pub/restaurant facilities.

great pub, great rooms.

Very nice old village pub. rooms are large and comfortable. pub food and breakfast were very well cooked and quite large portions too. Good selection of beers. would definitely stay here again. What more can I say 5 stars.

Beautiful, wonky, 15th Century building aesthetically oozing historical charm: latticed windows, cool stone brick built rooms and original beams. Lovely Iarge beer garden (with a secret zoo and bbq's every weekend in good weather) incorporated with pub food served in and outside. Staff fabulous and very helpful. Charming. Utterly unique. Will stay again ...and again recurring.

Great place

Stayed for one night for Business. Checked in in the evening. I had a meal, only a burger but cooked to perfection, with a choice of sides & toppings. Staff are friendly nothing was a hassle. Even gave me a breakfast to take away as I was leaving before normal operating hours for breakfast. Room would be plenty big enough for 2, cosy too. Shower hot and good pressure. What else. Hold you ask for.

Pros - Property is located in a beautiful area in a little village. Room and bathroom was very clean and tidy with plenty of extras within the room. Cons- Bearing in mind it was -5 during the night. The duvet wasn’t thick enough so I woke up really cold at 4am and I ended up getting dressed and also trying to sleep in my coat to keep warm. There was an electric oil radiator provided but it wasn’t enough to keep the room warm as it’s a 14th century building. This won’t be an issue in the summer or if a thicker duvet can be provided. The water was luke warm but not hot enough for a shower especially as the room was cold. Again, not an issue in the summer months. Breakfast, I had allocated 30/40 min because I had work. I notified the day before a 7am breakfast time. When I came down at 7am, the owner was only switching the lights on. 30/40 minutes wasn’t enough time to wait for the owner to get set up in the kitchen and then start cooking a cooked breakfast from scratch. So I ended up having toast. When I received my toast the host then left to get the kids ready for the school run. Don’t expect a top up of tea if you wanted it. Overall- £127 for one night is far too expensive for the experience that I received. Not being able to have a shower and having to leave without a hot breakfast was quiet frustrating.

The stay was great. To say it was old is an understatement, 700 years is the oldest I've ever stayed in and the condition the owners have maintained is brilliant. If you're looking for a historical twee experience, go for this. The cost of the hotel and meals is inexpensive and good quality, the breakfast basic continental but Ok. We loved it.

Very friendly and helpful staff. The room was clean and tidy and perfect for our one night stay. Breakfast was good and the offer of extra tea or coffee was very welcome. The location was very quiet and tranquil

Dared room

The staff were very friendly . Room was dated and had cobwebs too. One of the bulbs on the ceiling light lamp was precariously hanging.

Handy for weddings at Coltsfoot!

Very, very calm, cosy and quaint place to stay. I was at a wedding at Coltsfoot, and it’s 15 mins drive. Extremely comfortable and clean, very efficient breakfast too.

8/10 Very good

Positives - Exceptional staff - very hardworking and always happy to help when asked and answer questions. - Very Attractive and quaint period bedroom with a large spacious en-suite attached. - Comfy kingsized bed. - Traditional pub menu but super evening meal ( If you need to avoid salt, do mention it as potatoes are well salted.) and full breakfast with generous portions. We have eaten here several times before and there has been consistent excellent cooking every time - lots of towels and pristine bathroom . Negatives - It would have been helpful if we’d been given useful information on arrival or printed in our room - eg wifi code, time of breakfast, etc. We had to interrupt the only member of staff on duty each time to find out. - We also arrived on a very hot day to find the 2 opening windows in our room had been removed for renovation and the apertures boarded up. Staff were apologetic but it was too hot to stay in our room until it cooled down after dark (and was unattractive too) and we weren’t offered a free drink or anything to make up for the inconvenience. - lumpy pillows - disappointing when bedding is good quality

Jag är säker på att det finns bättre rum på hotellet men vi bokade väldigt sent så jag tror vi fick sista rummet och därmed troligen det sämsta. Badrummet var sämst där vi var tvungna att gå ut ur rummet för att komma till vårt badrum. Jag saknade en ordentlig möjlighet att duscha, det fanns endast ett fristående badkar utan skydd för dusch. Dessutom fungerade toalettens spolning bristfälligt. Rummet kunde varit renare. Frukosten var självbetjäning och var ok även om varm mat som ägg saknades.
