I'm splitting this review into two, the hotel and the pub because the hotel is a separate building.
THE HOTEL
I loved the unique little touches at this hotel. The reception has complimentary fruit and refrigerated milk (I don't like UHT). You can also fill up on tea & coffee at reception (none of this only one tea bag per person per night malarkey).
Room was really nicely decorated, love the bright pops of colour in the armchairs and mirrors too. Staff were great, friendly and chatty.
Mattress was comfy, its a shame that you could actually feel the zip on the mattress AND the duvet through the material (I understand that they have to be able to use a room as a twin too, but invest in a decent mattress cover and separate duvets). The pillows were very plump.
THE PUB
We ate here on the Friday night, the hollandaise on my starter was split and there was so much water from the poached egg that everything was slippery and tasted of salt water. Main was so unremarkable that two days later I can't even remember what I had.
Saturday morning, possibly one of the BEST hotel breakfast I've had. Light and creamy scrambled eggs (I consciously didnt choose the eggs benedict because of the night before), crispy bacon, toasted toast, delicious mushrooms. And a lovely latte to boot.
Sunday, possibly the worst. Insisted we pay for latte, hard scrambled egg (more like an overcooked omellete with hard black pepper chunks), flimsy fatty bacon, soggy cold toast, flavourless tomato.
