“From what I've gathered, this is a classic inn with over four centuries of stories within its walls; I appreciate that it's right on High Street, with parking tucked conveniently behind. The freshly cooked meals and attentive staff stood out in what I read, as did the engagement with the local community. It appears to be a spot with real character.”

Romantic getaway
impeccably clean roomexcellent presentationconvenient soapthoughtful welcome
The room was impeccably clean. I found the presentation excellent. A testament to the meticulous housekeeping. The bathroom had convenient soap dispensers for both hand washing and showering. Tea and coffee provisions were thoughtfully placed in the room for a comforting welcome! I found the food to be excellent. Each dish was reasonably priced and good.
The limited parking operates on a first-come. First-served basis, it caused a small amount of anxiety.

Satisfactory stay
great locationfriendly staffdelicious breakfastpeaceful room
The location is great for visiting the town centre. The staff members were friendly. I found the breakfast cooked to order very satisfying. My room faced the back of the building, so it remained peaceful after the pub closed.
The room decor felt slightly dated.

The room size felt quite small. I also had trouble with noise from the pub below. The music and chatter went on late. It was hard to fall asleep before the pub closed. The soundproofing seems inadequate. The room needed better sound isolation. It affected my ability to rest.
