breakfasts were good, rooms require updating, particularly the bathroom. Most staff were friendly and helpful, however, one of the staff shouldnât be in the hospitality business. surly and rude! Overall would probably stay elsewhere if visiting again.
The service was slow in the bar, we waited 15minutes to order coffees. It seemed disjointed at the table, drinks had to be ordered from one person, but they werenât allowed to take food orders. There was then a fair wait before someone took our food orders. The dining chair was smeared with food, resulting in us having to clean the seat / our hands, before we could eat. The bedroom carpet looked like it could do with a clean / freshen up, as could the shelves.
Lovely traditional old pub, with eclectic furniture. The rooms were basic and clean but with really good size single beds as brother are always happy to share a room. Have to say the shower was really poor in our room and it took nearly 5 mins to come hot.
The star of the stay was the food, Jacob the chef is clearly a very talented cook. The Brisket Croquettes are to die for as was my Rump steak which was perfectly cooked as ordered.
The down side was breakfast in a very dark and soleless room, coffee was the best either had been stewing for some time I suspect. Also big difference in the excellent evening staff and the not so happy breakfast staff.
Still good value overall in a lovely village.
Stayed 2 nights in this charming little pub come hotel.
Booking in and out was easy enough.
Lady over seeing breakfast was first class hostess, breakfast was Yorkshire finest full English.
Room was of good standard, can make cuppa, iron etc.
All good amd recommend
