    Amazing views, lovely people and great food.

    10HarryPosted on: 4-11-2025

    Wonderfully welcoming and friendly hosts.Limited range of food and beers as one would expect from a countryside location that's open all year but what they have / do is served promptly and tastes good.The main road goes quiet in the evening so just birdsong and lambs to wake you up.Really good v.f.m., dog friendly and used by locals - it must be good!

    10HughiePosted on: 3-29-2025

    Very welcoming , excellent curry for dinner and apple pie to follow.Also the breakfast was lovely.

    10AngelaPosted on: 3-22-2025

    Lovley quite location, we stayed on a Friday night and you have som talking from the bar that can he feom rooms but by no means was it noisy! I was greeted by Janet and what a Lovley friendly person she was. Thw lovle lady in the kitchen was so accommodating with us going ro be back late but would have dinner ready for us, I would of been happy with a sandwich left behind the bar. Beautiful stake dinner! Breakfast was beautiful cooked and a wide selection of cereal, cereal bars and yogurts. All in all it was fantastic value for money and very welcoming even our well behaved collie stayed

    There wasn't anything I could complain about.

    We were greeted warmly and made to feel at home throughout. There were lovely touches everywhere - Janet and Ray welcomed us in and nothing was too much trouble.

    We liked everything!!

    Really olde-worlde place, beautiful little room, with fantastic view over the river and trees, amazing sunset, incredibly welcoming landlord Ray and landlady Janet, great tales of their travels in India, tasty authentic curry for dinner, very lively evening of local domino players, real sense of community. We loved it, will definitely return, and would recommend to anyone.

    Nothing, it was all brilliant.
