Family getaway.
The owners were really nice and friendly . Felt let down with the room. Cob webs everywhere and dust around the skirting boards and the bathroom felt dirty and not properly cleaned. We also found a lot of hairs in our dinners inside the pub which was abit disturbing. A real shame as like I said the place was really friendly but could do with a make over and abit more hygiene put in place

Unable to check in on arrival. Pub was shut. No Wi-Fi or phone signal to contact owner. Left a message. Was notified by a passing lady that village fete was on and pub owner could be there. An email from owner in advance would have been appreciated and a courtesy. Waited outside for over an hour

We were warmly welcomed into a really lovely room with everything that we needed. Room was clean and comfortable. Food was delicious and plentiful, and kids needs were looked after. We were given friendly and and helpful advice when we asked about where to go fossil hunting. A lovely village too. We even bumped into a lady who was on her way to unlock the church and gave us a tour of the 1000 and 800 year old carvings!

We stayed in an apartment in the courtyard, which was very comfortable and we all had a great night's sleep in very comfy beds. Breakfast was delicious.

We chose to stay here for the convenience of having the bar and dining on site at the end of a busy day. This worked on Saturday but when we went to eat at 7pm on the Sunday evening we were told that the pub is closed on Sunday evenings. This hadn't been advertised when booking or even mentioned when on site which was disappointing

Such a friendly welcome
We stayed two nights at the Old Inn to celebrate a special occasion in the village. As soon as we arrived we were made very welcome and enjoyed a delicious dinner in the pub on friday night which was full of friendly people.
The food was excellenmt and so we also ate there the second night.
The rooms are very quiet and comfortable, with much to recommend.
