What a hidden Gem! Wonderful for music lovers, the accommodation is fab and honest everything that you need. The meals are astonishing, all lovingly prepared from scratch with high quality ingredients. There’s a good variety of meals to suit all tastes. We chatted to the Lorraine and Georgia for our preferences and nothing was too much trouble over the three day stay. There are quiet rooms to relax in and enjoy the fare. Excellent Staff, all are very welcoming, abundance of local characters, thank you to each of you for making our stay special and just being you. Real, unpretentious great quality, which is sadly lacking in designer pubs . Be prepared to park locally if you drive in, worth a visit 😁🤓👏

Good value for money. One huge disadvantage - terrible noisy floor. Literally can't walk without making an irritating squeak sounds.
