Lovely village pub
Very nice pub in a beautiful quiet village location just outside the very pleasant coastal town of Hythe. Friendly and welcoming hosts. Room was simple but comfortable, and had Sky Sports in the room, which was a bonus (very rarely found in luxury hotels!). Pub has a car park as well as very safe on street parking outside. Full English breakfast was very good. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely bedroom with very comfortable 4 poster bed. Few minor repair issues, peeling wallpaper in upstairs hallway and small bits of mould in en-suite. It took over 45 mins for a simple plate of English breakfast to reach us in the morning but the breakfast was very tasty. Would stay again.
