Room was nice and contactless check in made it easy to park up and go straight to the room. What was disappointing was the fact that we were emailed on the day of our check in to say that the bar and restaurant were closed- the location of the hotel meant we had to drive to find somewhere to eat at late notice. We would have cancelled our room if we’d have known about this earlier but because we were told on the day of our check in, the cancellation charge meant we would have lost all of our money. Not good service from the hotel. Room was fine though.

There is no open Pub here. They are very poor conditioned rooms in the rear that are being let. No tea/coffee, no towels, no Toilet roll. Dust everywhere, dead and live insects etc. everywhere. The worst place we have ever stayed in. Will be looking for a refund

The Crown Inn is arguably one of the most authentic rural English Inn experiences I had during my week long trip through England and Wales. Located in the literal middle of nowhere you can expect a fairly small and cozy English inn with friendly staff, old yet spacious and comfy rooms, a pub with a wide assortment of beers and plenty of parking space. Just be aware that the hotel is hard to spot, especially during the night, but with a good satnav you'll eventually find it.

Top money for low service and poor quality
Used to stay here regularly a few years ago and went back last Friday night. We were travelling 2 hours to get there and my wife phoned ahead to ask when they stopped serving food, she was told by the lady on reception it was 9.30pm When we checked-in we enquired about ordering food and was told that they stopped serving. I said my wife called and was informed it was 9.30 but I was told ' yes, that's correct but last orders for food is 9.15'. I checked the time on my phone and it was 9.14 so I said can I order but she said 'The Chef's gone home but there's a kebab van miles back the road'. Secondly the room wasn't great. A very small TV mounted on the far wall that you could only watch with binoculars and the bathroom was very old and tired with a lot of mould around the bath and sink. There was a coffee machine with a wide selection of English Tea, English Tea or English Tea and strangely no bedside lights so you had to negotiate your way to the bathroom and back to your bed in the complete darkness. Such a shame, with a small amount of effort and money they could drag this into the 21st century in terms of service and details. Until then, I shall stay elsewhere.

No power so staff locked up pub/reception no staff were working and no answer on the phone. How can you ? Had to book premier inn up the road as we couldn’t have a shower or nothing. All they have done is email a bar voucher which I won’t accept and want a full refund!! Avoid like the plague!!!!!!!
