unpleasant marquee crammed floor
The fires were good. It helped during the cold weather.
I did not liked the marquee. I booked a table for two in the main pub, I confirmed by email. I was ushered into a large marquee. Every inch of the pub floor was crammed with tables and diners, it was not pleasant.

great selection quick service cramped area overpriced lunch
the breakfast had a great selection with a good choice of cooked options. i ate at the inn both evenings and i really enjoyed my meals, the service was quick. the location was just what i wanted. it was close to many places of interest.
the interior was nothing special and my table was placed in the corner by the kitchen area. it was very cramped and uncomfortable. sunday lunch was freshly cooked and tasted nice however, it was overpriced.

pre-ordered breakfast homemade yoghurt quality compote
the staff accommodated my early work departure. i pre-ordered breakfast the night before. the home made yoghurt and compote tasted amazing. it really stands out for its quality.
the car park is small, so i had to park on a narrow road. its a bit inconvenient.
