Everything. Quaint little pub, oldy worldy, with original beams and plenty of character. it was exactly as other reviews had said. 10/10. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was lovely, breakfast done to how u requested. The room was immaculate, quaint bedroom, with amazing modern walk in shower, beautifully clean and shiny bathroom, very modern. The little extras made it that little bit more personal, tea making condiments with home made cookies in a jar. You really felt like they had tried to make Yr stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible.

    I'd rented a lodge for a one night break for one and it was ideal. Plenty of space for the max of 8. If it was all adults you'd have to draw tickets for room allocation as all so different! Perfect views. Was impressed with the location of the end lodge feeling I was on the edge of a woodland. Very clean, enough cooking pots in kitchen. Sofa comfier than it looks on photos. Perfect view from bed. Liked having decking upstairs and downstairs.
