Good
everything was clean and comfortable but the bathroom smelt very damp
The room was very spacious and very quiet. The view from the bar/breakfast area of the river was beautiful.
Nothing, no complaints at all.
Hotel situated by the river , large free car park, rooms large and airy, great atmosphere and wonderful staff.
All good
The location,Plenty of parkingRoom away from the pub so very quiet
The bathroom needs some maintenance to ceiling and furnishings
The location and really helpful staff
Heating was a bit under par but it is to be expected with such an old building and being winter when we stayed
We had a very nice breakfast at the Fishermans Cot, & were looked after well by the friendly staff there. Our room was comfortable, & very clean.
Tea & coffee was provided, but no hot chocolate & no biscuits.
Unfortunately not much!
The room is OK as long as you are only 4 ft tall as the slopping ceiling prohibits standing up straight when negotiating around the room. But the thing that is unbelievable is we were awoken at 4am because our brand new car was up to the cills underwater. Why were we not told that this pub is liable to flooding by the staff? We had to wade out of the entrance/exit through 18 inch of water so shoes are ruined as well as having wet clothes. My partner did try to contact the proprietor using the emergency phone in the lobby, which was not answered, she also rang the number that's online left a message to be contacted. So it's now 11.29am and we have not been contacted. So just to recap. Car full of water, Wet clothing damaged shoes, Room that we had to exit at 4.30 am, Missed breakfast and very poor customer service. Can't express how un happy we both are!
The room was large and bed comfortable. The room was clean on the surface but required a more thorough clean.Nice location next to the river Very helpful staff and easy check in
The hotel is very tired and needs a really big refurbishment.The windows in our room were single glazed and chilly and noisy from the nearby road.The room was clean but had dusty skirting board and ledges, also a few cobwebs
Good location and staff
Building bit tired,food quite pricey
Great location next to the river. Nice clean warm room. Lovely evening meal and breakfast.
Amazing location with riverside views. Was there for birthday party and overnight stay, both great! Very friendly service and good food.
Staff very friendly. Great location. Food was excellent.
Lovely location, next to the weir of a river, with quiet countryside surroundings. The room was spacious and clean, with a really comfy bed. We had our evening meal in the pub, which was delicious.
I love the area ,a lovely spot( for hiking and I believe in summer time it is spectacular),River Ex next to, snow ❄️ at the last day, very comfortable beds , good food at the restaurant.
I have to talk about old windows,wet day and night during winter, and lack of ventilation. Unfortunately we visited during winter time and our radiator stopped working. After reporting an issue, we were advised someone will look into when we will be at the restaurant. Unfortunately when we were back the radiator was still off and no-one even offered any explanation or replacement heater. I have to mention the temperature outside dropped to -3
Food was amazing! Pie heaven.Beds comfortable Lovely river views
Lovely staff and bacon
Wobbly toilet seat and dark dining room
