The building itself is fine, it’s just a little unloved looking. However, we understand it’s closing for a refurb at the end of the Summer which makes sense. We were met at the property and shown around and the room which is clean and perfectly adequate for our one night stay. Things we liked most: * the price * the village/area within walking distance. * the peace (no main road noises) Things that would benefit from improvement: * cleaner ‘shared’ areas (kitchen and the bathroom that’s not ensuite…I.e. the bathroom light pull. * a general more loved feel to the property, tended to pot plants etc Overall a pleasant overnight stop that met our needs for a reasonable price :)

Staff were very pleasant and we had a very nice meal in the pub in the evening we arrived. The room wasn’t so good. The room needed a good hoover everywhere as there were cobwebs hanging from wall and ceiling. We were in room 6 ground floor and we were not able to open the window as the hang was broken, which seems like fire risk. At night we could hear scampering of what can only be small furry animals in the ceiling.

Check in is supposed to be after 2pm and we arrived at 5pm but we couldn't check in until 6pm when the pub opened so we had to wait in the car until then. The room didn't have any unused soap (only an open squirty carex handsoap), no small shampoo/ conditioner and there was no cooked breakfast, apart from an open butter & jam, and some cereals. Bathroom has no ventilation. At some point in the evening we were served a beer that tasted like cider but after asking if that was correct, no-one gave us any explanation. Food was nice. Beers were nice but fairly expensive. Location closed to the canal is nice. The pub is lovely and cosy. The staff was friendly.

it is real old country living and the people are lovely. The beds were great The birds in the morning were spectacular. We loved staying in the old thatched roof cottage. The beer is great. Very English cuisine.
