The room was getting a little tired but everything we needed was there.
Staff were friendly .
Food was absolutely amazing. Both dinner and breakfast were excellent. We only had the continental breakfast included with the room as we couldn't have eaten any more!

Excellent value for money
We arrived on a really busy Sunday afternoon the pub was packed but the lady who checked us in was lovely and welcoming and showed us straight to our room. On arrival to the room it was spotless clean and really cool with the air conditioning on ( which was a god send as it was a really hot day) .They had upgraded us to a room with a hot tub which was lovely.
Went into pub later for sunday lunch which was amazing but very over priced. Granddaughter loved the pool but there were 3 boys in there that had sneeked in they were very destructive throwin sun loungers in pool and upturning plant pots on decking but once barman saw them asked them to leave immediately.
Breakfast next day was continental but had lots of different cereal to choose from, different bread for toast, fruit etc only thing was milk in fridge had turned sour but once told this was rectifed immediately.
All staff were so friendly and could not do enough for you.
We had an excellent stay and would highly recommend to friends and family.

Straightforward budget accommodation, in one of a row of rooms behind the pub, each with a small porch facing the parking lot. In a fairly quiet location (but thin walls if you have noisy neighbors), comfortable with soft mattress and pillows. The owner is working his way through renovating. Free breakfast is simple continental, includes fancy coffees.

"A work in progress"
A "work in progress". The rooms are motel style in the car park at the rear of the pub.
Most of the rooms do not seem to have been finished completely, with odd combinations of beds etc. Shower rooms not particularly clean.
Lots of work being undertaken at rear of pub and in the surrounding grounds (piles of debris everywhere).
Swimming pool looked ok.
