We were looking for an overnight stop travelling back North from Southampton and came across here. There was a big extension being built to the front of the pub so parking was difficult but otherwise caused no inconvenience. We had 3 rooms and all were very comfortable and well equipped . What stood out about this place was the staff, all were genuinely lovely and friendly. Checked in and personally shown to our rooms. We ate at the pub and the food was quickly served and was simply delicious and fairly priced. The breakfast was equally delicious and plentiful, nothing was any bother to the girls. If I could give 6 stars I would, it was fantastic. Will book again for next years event.

The food was very good and staff great. Grace was a wonderful server. The inn is certainly olde and genuine. Not a pretend olde . Rooms are very unusual with individual names. All are separate from the pub. Obviously the pub is the main venue for the local population. The room was modest size but had two TVs. The shower floods the bathroom. Not a big deal.

Good but not quite perfect

Lovely friendly service with great food. The accommodation was well presented and had everything needed hit the room was freezing cold and only a light blanket and sheet on the bed. Even once I worked out how to turn the radiator on the room was cold as was the bathroom.

Bit Pricey but worth a look

Pub / restaurant/ hotel. Drinks/ plenty of choice. Food/ breakfast excellent cooked to order. Restaurant food/ good food well cooked not much choice on menu although some specials were offered. Rooms/ Clean basic, tea & coffee provided with kettle. Maid service every day WiFi not available in Rooms. We weren’t familiar with this part of the world and assumed this Hotel was in area with other similar venues, this wasn’t the case in fact it was pretty much isolated from other Pubs or shops. Overall it was a nice stay with pleasant, helpful and attentive staff.

I stayed at this place for one night on a business trip. The pub was very nice and the room was suitable for a one or two night stay. There was a constant droning noise in my room (Kilkenny?) that sounded like a fan or heater automatically turning on and off which was frustrating. Luckily, I always take ear plugs with me when I travel so I was able to sleep. However, it would be annoying if you were staying there longer or you didn't have ear plugs. The evening meal that I had in the pub was fantastic and the breakfast was really good and set me up for the day ahead. All in all, a good stay.

Nice pub and a nice area, my room was OK but was in need of some updating, also right next to the beer garden with people outside the window until after 11pm. The food was OK, need more veggie choices for my taste. Didn't feel the need to rush back but it was OK.
