+ Excellent food throughout the day, really varied menu so plenty of options, staff were all extremely friendly and made our stay an absolute pleasure, tip top beer garden at the rear with loads of space and mature planting an absolute sun trap, ample parking even on a busy weekend. We weren't sure about our room location being close to the road but it was lovely and quiet especially after hours although the lambs get up early in the opposite field but it is the countryside after all!
− The rooms are very country style orientated and could probably do with a bit of an update/modernisation but again it is the countryside after all!
