Great location in the middle of Brewood which is a gorgeous village. We were there for a birthday celebration in Brewood so it was very convenient. Nice rooms and a fantastic breakfast. Lovely atmosphere.

Lovely little hotel very friendly staff, and pet friendly. Food was good and my husband had a huge fried breakfast. Mine was more than adequate. Dogs welcome in bar and lounge so very helpful for us. Had a little trouble parking as no dedicated parking but found a spot later in the free Car park behind the hotel. Bed was very comfortable, room was clean apart from a few stains on carpet. Am assuming that was done by a pet, but not ours I hasten to add. All in all we really liked this hotel and surroundings so would go back again if on area. Thank you

Fabulous!! Stopped in the “Brewood” room on a Tuesday night. Hadn’t thought to book a table for dinner, which was rather last minute as we had 6 guests joining us. The staff were amazing; despite being fully booked, they opened their private dining room for us. The food is fantastic, and the included breakfast was brilliant quality. Top quality sausages!! Thank you for having us!

Comfortable quirky hotel.

A refurbished quirky hotel with friendly staff, good food and comfortable accommodation. Steep winding stairs to upper floors need care to navigate but was not a problem for me.

Little gem of a hotel and restaurant combined

We stayed as a stopover on our journey to the north west at Christmas time and it was the perfect little stopover. The village was super cute with loads of Christmas lights and I think we counted 4 pubs in the village! The hotel itself is cute and quite small but lovely staff and service and we had a steak in the restaurant which was superb. Overall very pleased and great value for money.

Lovely meal & stay.

Lovely overnight stay. We booked a meal in the restaurant for hubby's birthday, & finished it off with cocktails, before retiring to our room The staff were friendly, the room was pleasant & overlooked the village centre. Nice, pleasant relaxed evening. We enjoyed our breakfast the next morning too.
