“The Horse And Hound Hotel strikes me as a particularly welcoming, family-run operation; I imagine the owner's engagement creates a personalized experience for guests. The focus on locally sourced food is a definite plus, and I picture the bar area as a comfortable space to unwind; however, some rooms appear to need an update. This hotel seems ideal for families seeking a friendly base while exploring the countryside.”
