A quaint friendly little local pub with B&B, the en suite room was clean and comfortable with a view over the front of the pub and village. There was not much space for parking, and they didn’t cater much if you have a gluten free diet, but tried their best to accommodate , overall a very nice stay, would definitely return and recommend

Lovely homely welcoming Inn
We checked in to this beautiful old inn, and were greeted by owner Johnathan, we were shown to our room and told if we needed anything just ask. Being the winter the kitchen is closed Monday and Tuesday which Johnathan apologised for, we replied it’s absoulutly fine. He told us of the local Chinese just up the road and said please feel free to bring it back to our room to eat, which we did. Excellent Chinese takeaway. We slept like logs and woke to have full breakfast that Jonathan cooked which was lovely fresh and hot. Will be booking again without a doubt.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Didn't get to sleep til late as there was a private function but this isn't anybody's fault we were staying in a pub and expected noise. The room was lovely, very nice coffee! The staff were friendly and polite. No real parking available but we managed to find a space fairly close by. The kids loved the room and we would definitely stay again.

A great choice
The Engine Room is a great English pub. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. The drinks were great, the locals friendly and talkative. The room was very comfortable. They even had a good entertainer. It was the English pub experience you would want to have.it was great value.

Dissapointed
Only booked this hotel the night before as our previous hotel had closed down. We tried 2 other hotels for evening meals which were far superior to the engine Inn. The best part of our stay was the full continental breakfast.
