Charming Stay with GREAT food

friendly staff lovely food rustic feel
The staff were very friendly and helpful. I really appreciated that. The food was lovely, especially at breakfast and lunch. I liked the rustic feel of the bedrooms and the decor in the pub.
There was no milk or tea bags in the room, inconvenient. I had to request these items separately.
