“The recent refurbishment is evident in the stylishly appointed rooms, offering a real sense of comfortable luxury, especially given the value. Its pub heart beats strongly, serving excellent, well-priced food in a genuinely welcoming atmosphere, complemented by a thoughtful lack of televisions in the communal spaces that encourages conversation. Bedrooms are spacious and thoughtfully designed, some even including kitchenettes, and the comfortable beds promise a restful night. This place feels like a thoroughly considered retreat, blending excellent accommodation with a truly convivial local inn.”
