The second time that I have stayed here and it doesn't disappoint. A good value place with the added bonus of being able to get a decent meal at the pub without having to travel.

The pub and room are really nice with helpful and friendly staff. The only downside was that they decided to start doing some very noisy work at 4am right outside our window. No idea why they thought that was an appropriate time, but there you go. Other than that, enjoyed our stay.

Ideal and good value for a stop over en route.

Our satnav found it a little difficult to locate, but once there the welcome was good, and the room and facilities exceeded our expectations. Food and drink a little pricey, but this is the South East, so we expected it.

Very cool old English pub, tucked away in a quiet little hamlet. Rooms are in a converted stables, while not large are well appointed. Was a great place to rest up after a long flight.

Great place to stay

One night transit stay. The room was clean. The in room breakfast was very good with plenty of choice in cereal & milk, yoghurt, fruit juice, grain bar and apples. All for a very good price of £50 per room.

Overnight stop

Very friendly staff and a lovely clean room. And the food in the bar was just fine. Everything I needed for an overnight stay before getting the Eurotunnel the following morning.

Clean hotel room separate from the pub. It was a cheap price and comfortable with everything that you could need with a full sized kettle and TV. It was a little dusty in some places and I got the feeling it hadn’t been stayed in a little while. Continental breakfast was good and enough to have something you liked. Overall would stay again.

Always a wonderful stay at this lovely place. Clean and comfortable room/bed. Delicious selection of continental breakfast in your room, fridge to keep milk and juice fresh. Breakfast items topped up daily. The food and service in the pub is exemplary. The manager is an excellent host who clearly works very hard. We love staying here and can't recommend it highly enough. It's a stones throw from the railway station so easy access into central London too.

Excellent value for money. The 2 staff members we met were both polite and helpful. The cleaning lady went over and above to help us when I left my phone charger in the room. Really appreciated.

Fantastic staff and service. The food portion size in the pub was generous, and the breakfast tray was a nice touch. Unfortunately, in the room itself the air con was broken, the pillows were cheap and uncomfortable, the decor was dated, and the blinds were not blackout. I was awoken early by the bins being emptied.

Uncomfortable stay

Two electric heaters in the room, only one working. It was -2°c overnight and the duvet was around 20mm thick and no extra blankets. Extremely cold until around 3am, then the room was boiling. Food service stopped at 6pm. I checked in at 6:10pm and all i was offered was a ceasar salad.
