Pros +
- FOOD WAS EXCELLENT, great Location. People working at this establishment work really hard despite its long opening hours.
- The original part of the hotel and the bar has a lot of character and the location is very good to explore the Midlands Meander.
- Breakfast was good and the staff are very friendly the whole team make you feel at home
Cons -
- On some days the pub stays open late, it can be very noisy if you are in the rooms near to it. The cleaning staff are very polite, but need more training, and it would be better if they had a vacuum to work with. Throw blankets that stay on the end of the bed, need to be washed when there is a visitor change. Ours was dirty. The shower drain is joined to the same outlet as the toilet, so when anyone flushes the toilet, the shower gurgles and makes noises during the night which wakes you up. Some staff arrived late for work, so the dining room tables and floors were still dirty from the busy night before. However if I was the manager, and I had arrived at work on time, I would have gotten out my vacuum, bucket and cloth and cleaned the room myself, despite the issue. Its better that none of us see the issue, and it get sorted out behind closed doors, and not infront of the guests. We all had a very uncomfortable breakfast.
- The property is looking tired. All the walls and doors are chipped on the corners and is need of repainting. There is a paddle tennis court in a monstrous canvas tent on the property, which detracts from the historic feel and makes it a very busy venue. The breakfast wasn’t good.
- The shower in room 14 needs to be changed water doesn’t come out nicely

The breakfast was great, the location is very convenient, and the staff are very friendly
The shower hot water pressure was not great, it barely worked.
Classic, vintage look.
Nail clippings in the bed. Small bathroom. Water on the floor because the shower does not have a door. The floor was dirty. Bathroom needs a paint job. Mosquitoes in the room. Dust mites on the couches.
location location location... and the pub!
our bathroom was very small, but when we asked for a different room, we were well accommodated, no hassles !
Food
I had to bath with dirty water, the room was not what I paid for and the rooms are very old.
Our bed was lovely & comfortable.The food in the pub was rather good. The bathroom was small and impractical. There was no fridge or milk in the room.
We had a garden view unit which is great for smokers as you can pop outside. The food was amazing husband had the lamb shank which was very tasty with yummy crisp veggies. I had the lamb curry which was just perfect with pompodums rice,banana and coconut just perfect.
That we didn't get to stay longer.
The tranquility of this pub keeps me coming back year after year. The pub itself is full of history withits creaking wood floors, and awesome fire place to keep you warm most of the year. the staff are well mannered, and helpful, and it seems every patron comes in with the expectation of joyfullness making it a great place to stay
Location was good. Staff were helpful and friendly. Bar and food were great and breakfast was lovely!
Bathroom was really small. Had to step into the shower to open/close the door and get to the toilet
The property has loads of character due to the age and history, the pub is charming and the food is not bad but that is where it stops for price u are paying.
It is need of some upgrades and attention to detail is definitely missing , some staff are not the most pleasant, others were very nice. Stayed in Room 5, not even a vanity or small table to put your toiletries on, in the bathroom. Not sure I would stay there again in a hurry.
Meals were value for money. Glad it was included in the price. The new year's eve dinner was exceptional. The music provided added to the a fun factor to the night (I am a retiree). Definitely a destination venue for special days. Refreshing to walk in the mornings and afternoons.
The room has carpets. The carpets need refreshing as the room felt dusty. Whilst the fans serve a purpose they are noisy at night - aircons would have been welcomed.
Paddle court on the premises was a bonus and we enjoyed it. Dining option for dinner was good and breakfast was okay
We were unable to have a hot bath in the evening as the water was cold.
Not too much
The ugly noisy paddle courts . No soap in bathrooms . The hotel was noisy
I was thoroughly disappointed with my experience at this hotel. Unfortunately, there were no redeeming qualities or positive aspects to share.Extremely disappointing experience at this hotel. Nothing positive to report.
I was thoroughly disappointed with my experience at this hotel. The hotel was dirty to the point that we could not eat in the rooms. Unfortunately, the service was subpar and fell far below the standards I've encountered at other hotels. In my opinion, the three-star rating is inflated and should be downgraded to a one-star rating.
Location and proximity of restaurantFood was awesome and well doneSelf service coffee
Insects and an Abundance of Flies
Great location
Very loud, could hear the people upstairs and the bar all night. No fan, so the mosquitos ate us alive
The beds are comfortable, and the room size is very spacious. The bar has a great old pub feel with good food efficient and friendly staff, and the locals make you feel right at home.
The bathroom needs a little tlc.
Nice to have pub and restaurant on site as well as padel courtRooms were big and loved the bath
