  : We have stayed there before and I did prefer the slightly larger room we booked last time but it is a great place to stay en route to Devon. Breakfast very good and staff polite
  : Nothing

  : Service was excellent and welcoming. It was kind of the chef to cook us breakfast earlier than usually due to the time we had to check out. The rooms felt homely, and the decor was beautiful. The mini fridge facility is an excellent addition and appreciated the complimentary water.
  : It would be good if there was someone to contact before the stay. On the day of arrival, we tried several times to call the hotel to tell them we wouldn't be able to arrive during the check-in time (3-6). (Only learnt about this check-in time a day before check-in). The phone didn't even ring. It went straight to a voicemail. Please make it aware that the check-in times won't be the same time stated on booking.com. Arriving between 3-6 became a hassle. This was the only downside to the stay.

  : Good location. Clean room, comfortable bed. Friendly staff on arrival to check in.
  : As in other reviews, very noisy road outside. In addition, the hard wooden flooring outside the room means other guests walking past were also disturbing, as was the noise from the pub downstairs - until closing time. Worst of all was the smell of cooking oil from the kitchen close by below, which permeated the room and was overwhelming. Didn't stay for breakfast so unable to comment.

  : Breakfast was excellent with a good choice of dishes. The pub is situated conveniently for the the Motorway network in an attractive part of the country.
  : As far as we could tell, all the bedrooms were situated on the first floor up a fairly steep flight of stairs.

  : Very warm welcome upon arrival and given a quiet room as requested by email before arrival. Restful nights sleep and use of the WiFi and tea/coffee provided. Good shower and bathroom facilities/commodities. Met by the owner at breakfast who was very friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast and departure.
  : Not real butter at breakfast- just a personal preference. I dislike non real dairy products intensely, otherwise all was fine.
