We had a fabulous 1 night stay, room was beautiful, patio area was great too.
Only negative feedback was no milk and only a coffee machine which was awful for tea drinkers as the water tastes like coffee still.
Saying this however we would come back and just bring a kettle! :0)

Lovely location in the scenic countryside and super clean accommodation with gorgeous bathroom and comfy bed. Food was very tasty but portions on the small side. Breakfast could definitely do with some small but significant extras. No choice of fruit juice, no toast or cereals and no ketchup or brown sauce available. I’m not keen on muffins and cinnamon rolls for breakfast so a choice would have been better. Tried to have some bar snacks, but they were too busy in the restaurant so couldn’t serve us anything but bread. I would stay here again for the location and comfort but they could up their game when it comes to other areas..

We stayed in the barn for 3 days and had a wonderfully relaxing time. The food at the pub is outstanding. Best breakfast selection I have ever experienced. The chef is clearly extremely passionate about their craft.
