This historic coaching inn dates back to 1470 and has been lovingly restored & maintained over the years. I can’t comment on the hotel aspect personally but guests appear to appreciate the individuality of the rooms. Been to the small bar area a few times and it has a lovely homely/cosy feel to it. Also had breakfast here twice, following working for a charity overnight! What I’ve always noticed is the friendliness of the staff, which is indicative of a well-management establishment. Would definitely recommend to friends visiting the area.

Popped by with hubby on way to see a Tribute concert. This lovely pub is full of Henry 8th Vibes and his wives, atmosphere is quirky. Was greeted by a lovely young man who served our drinks with ease. Drinks reasonable and coat of Armour very intreqing to look at. Will definitely pop by again so much character

Went here with a Groupon deal. The staff were friendly and professional, and our steaks were both tasty and cooked well. For the price of the deal, they were a bargain. The dining room was really nice, and we had a relaxed lunch. I love that they have not tried to spruce the restaurant. You can feel the history of the place, and it was fascinating to think of all the people who had eaten in these rooms over the past 600 years.

Such a lovely little place to eat and take in the traditional features of the decor. The Soup of the Day was piping hot and delicious. Chicken wings came with a hot sauce with a great kick and the beef and lamb were tender and well seasoned. We did not stop for drinks at the pub next door, but it looked warm and cozy.. Great staff who were helpful, friendly and welcoming - always makes a huge difference.
