Dedicated parking available just across the road was a bonus. It's in the village centre so having parking is fantastic.

limited breakfast selection crowded bar

The location proved acceptable. It was central.

I found the breakfast underwhelming. Its selection was very limited. the cooked breakfast required pre-ordering. This felt inconvenient. the bar area was quite crowded and many dogs were present.

Excellent Stay in a Quaint Village

central location real ale home-cooked food comfy room

The location is central, directly on the village's cobbled streets near the fountain. The hotel offered an excellent beer selection including several local real ales plus a good selection of non-alcoholic options. Home-cooked food was served by a friendly team, I found it simple and good. My room was very comfortable and the bath had very hot water.

The building exterior could use some attention.
