What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“First time here and as a dog friendly . What can we say. Karl was superb friendly and all staff couldn’t do enough for all 3 of us(including Frank the puppa ) Room was large and very nice , comfortable bed and food was exceptional! Great location and pretty village. Breakfast was locally sourced and the sausages and black pudding stunning. Well done and we will be back”
“I would say this is one of the best stays in the UK I have had. Karl & Julia are amazing hosts and very helpful. The room was perfect and really catered for our dog we brought along. Really clean and the hot tub was private which you don't get in a lot of places. I also have to point out the small attention to details in the room, they have covered everything from robes to champagne flutes etc. The breakfast was great also by Julia ( sorry Karl I don't think you can match). Lastly the location is great for days out to the coast etc! we will be back!”
“We stayed for 3 nights and Karl and Julie were excellent hosts. Karl upgraded our room to a larger one as we had our dog with us. Room was spacious and spotless. They made us feel very welcome in their lovely pub such a shame they didn't have a chef when we stayed but their breakfast was excellent with other options available than the full yorkshire which is always good. Lovely poached eggs on breakfast although think Julies had the edge on Karls. Sorry Karl yours were good but think Julie takes top spot. Hope to be able to return when we next in the location Jane Phil and Ned”
“Excellent food, rooms are lovely, very clean. Staff are very friendly, plenty of car parking. Great choice on the menu. Lovely venue”
