Great pub with great rooms.
I’ve stayed here a few times now for work. Very impressed with the friendliness and service of staff. The room I stayed in was excellent and spacious with a superb shower. Really comfy bed with nice duvet. I’ve eaten off the set evening menu in the pub/restaurant, food very good and great value. A must stay if you are in the area.

Historical property, quiet this time of year (end of Sept) and friendly staff. Great food too. Well worth visiting if you’re in the area! Close to the Tank Museum and good local taxis.

Very nice 3 night stay. Evening meals were good - though service poor on the second night. Breakfasts ok, but would have preferred a continental option. happy to recommend.

Superb
A very peaceful and relaxing night spent in the bar for a meal and drinks. Our room was spacious and comfortable, equipped with everything you need. We enjoyed a cooked breakfast in the morning. The food evening and morning was delicious and a good range of options.

Vulnerable to noisy neighbours
Everything was fine but walls were quite thin. The risk is then getting noisy neighbours which unfortunately we did and ended up not getting to sleep until late

Another Quality night away, thanks to Hotels.com. This Pub had absolutely everything we wanted in a stay. Spotlessly clean, lovely comfortable bed, fab view of the rabbits in the field. Every single aspect was perfect for us. Really pleasant staff, throughout, but a special shout to the reception/barman/waiter/ all round lovely feller who gave us extra special treatment the whole stay. Highly recommended.
What a nice welcome!

Rooms were lovely. Spacious and freshly decorated. However the day we visited the kitchen staff came down with Covid so there was no evening meal. Also it was VERY hot and the morning staff seemed to have had a poor night of sleep (as did we all). They did not know what was available in the kitchen (we asked for gluten free bread and oat milk and they had to check). Service was slow and we weren't offered jam with the toast
