“This 16th-century coaching inn blends historical charm with practical comforts, including updated rooms and free WiFi. I found the restaurant's focus on homemade British cuisine appealing, and the flexible event spaces make it suitable for gatherings. Being dog-friendly and near local attractions like the Imperial War Museum are definite advantages, in my view.”
