Stayed a few times, always excellent. Rooms, food, beer, staff, can’t fault anything. Not cheap, but worth it. Evening meal was excellent, restaurant quality as opposed to pub grub.

The end is a very old building in the center of town. We had no idea that it would be so busy around the Inn. Our room was so hot, and the window couldn’t open very far due to it hitting a downspout pipe. We had two fans running all night and it was a difficult sleep. Also, the bed was very uncomfortable, and the pillows were hard and flat. The breakfast Was good

Very enjoyable stay. Very friendly staff. Lovely old pub. Warm comfortable room but really quite small and being a very old building not very soundproof. Great location.
