Nice room but a bit simple. Bathroom could use new tiles but was clean. Extensive breakfast but limited hours (7:30 am - 9:00 am). Had a good curry for dinner. Staff is friendliness itself. Would definitely come back here again.

Lovely place, very nice friendly staff, food good and clean rooms. We did run out of bacon for breakfast! But we would recommend 100% Well done 👍🏻

What a wonderful place went here for a random dinner on a Thursday evening. Both the pub menu and outstanding time menu were brilliant. The food was truly top quality and the service from all of the staff was exceptional. It was so refreshing to be serve with a smile by people that genuinely want you to be there and have a nice time. We enjoyed it so much that we changed our family birthday party for a few weeks time from a different venue we had booked to this place as it was so nice. Seem to have found a unusual balance of a traditional pub whilst also doing some events with a great big garden and a nice patio really good work to the team. Very impressed.

Room was a little dated and in need of greater soundproofing. Possible to hear next doors conversations. In this day and age; sockets should include usb for charging. Service and breakfast was excellent.

Good stopover before going to Highclere castel. We are in a good traditional pub and the rooms are acceptable for a fitness before further adventures

Appalling. Two of us booked a room to stay in after attending a wedding nearby. We weren’t given a key upon check-in but were promised our rooms would be left unlocked with the keys inside upon our return later that night. We came back to find both rooms locked and were forced to climb through the window to get in and sleep in locked rooms which were dirty and without loo roll. We obviously expected an unreserved apology the next morning but were instead shocked to have the manager criticise us for ‘putting our lives at risk’. Extraordinary.

A real gem of a place. Room had ensuite, tv and tea/coffee facilities. Evening meal was excellent. Staff were friendly and accommodating providing my other half with an ad hoc dessert of bananas in custard. Will definitely rebook when we are next in the area.

Stumbled upon this place whilst passing by and really chuffed. A good proper pub. Nothing fancy, just a nice old skool English pub. Good beer, nice atmosphere, friendly staff, and the locals seemed happy to chat too. Bravo.

One of our party was gluten and dairy intolerant ... the waiter had to keep checking several times to know which items contained dairy. This was surprising given the limited nature of the set menu. Also, the only dessert option for our party member from the set menu was the poached pear which was not available, and we weren't aware of this until after the first two courses. This wasn't unavailable due to being sold out, but because the pears were unexpectedly hard, and they were preferring not to serve them. We opted to take them as they came, yet did need a knife and fork to eat them, but I don't understand why they didn't just warm them up to soften them beforehand. Plus also, it came with an aniseed coulis, which was originally advertised as a berry coulis, and the dairy intolerant guest really can't stand aniseed, so they ended up leaving the pear! With all the faff around the dessert, it ended the meal on a down note, and it all could have been avoided had we been proactively warned about the pear before we locked ourselves into ordering off the set menu. I was also surprised that there was only one dairy free option off the set menu... even just sorbet ice cream wasn't an official option, though it came as an addition to the pear?

Review: The pizza was good, but the staff and service were far from satisfactory. My wife visited today and simply requested that the pizza be properly cooked, as our previous order had been undercooked. The staff member responded rudely, saying, “I don’t cook the pizza, it’s cooked in the oven.” To this, my response is simple: it’s not up to you to decide how good your service is—public reviews do that. 🙏 The individual in question was of Indian origin. While I don’t recall his name, you can easily identify him through your records if you are serious about improving your service. This incident occurred on October 16th, 2024, at approximately 13:00.
