    I really liked the fact that our accommodation was in a separate little building behind the pub, so we had total privacy. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We met a few of the locals when we had a drink in the pub.

    From the moment we entered the pub we were made welcome by Susie. Our rooms were very well appointed, bathroom spacious and well equipped. Breakfast was as good as a 5 star hotel. We strongly recommend the Royal Oak.

    The staff were friendly and efficient. The room was clean, comfortable and well appointed, with a nice ensuite shower. Both the breaffasts and the evening meals were nicely cooked and presented, with short waiting times. There is ample parking...

    Dinner and breakfast were good, and the staff could not have been more helpful or friendly. Our room was of a reasonable size and the bed very comfortable. It was a very hot night, but the room remained a tolerable temperature. Lovely...

    I had booked had electrical issues (I'm Jessica, The Wife, not Henry, btw), so the staff upgraded us to a two-story cottage next to a meadow filled with birds...and one magnificent race horse! They even brought our dinner to us, just to be kind to...
