Quaint. Room 6 convenient location. Definitely 3*. Bath cracked at head end but new. New shower curtain but shower button broken so hard to switch on. Basin new but taps hard to turn off. Window in bathroom awful, paint flaking off and black marks. Needs replacing desperately. More hooks please. Bedroom large with dark wood furniture. No wifi in room but good in pub. Clean sheets and good towels. 2 radiators to keep room warm and can turn up or down. Lighting is poor. Bedside lamps fine but main ceiling light is weak so not enough light in the room. Carpet in room old fashioned but looked clean. Very good breakfast. No idea when it started or finished nor were we told when we had to vacate room. Good for town visit . Remember 3* ...no more.

Jess was friendly ~ Ben wasn't. room room 7 dilema

we arrived at 8.30, thankfully we'd eaten as they stop serving food at 8. we had to go into a very busy bar and book in, Jess behind the bar was very friendly but couldn't find the room key, she tried to ring the manager & the cleaner but to no avail. she then said she had a twin room, but we didn't want a twin we had ordered a double, so she found us another room... 2 and shew us up..... this is where it went downhill very quickly, the room was freezing as no heating was on, not good in Dec. there was an oil heater so we plugged that in, and put the kettle on for a cuppa. had a look about, there was mould on the skirting board, a plug socket was hanging off the wall the bathroom was very tired to say the least with more mould. after about 1/2 hour i said to the wife i'm going to see if there's a different room as i wasn't happy with the condition. i spoke to Jess again who said they had lost the key to our original room but she had a twin and we were welcome to have a look and see if we wanted it, we could push the beds together. a few minutes later there was a knock at the door and Ben the manager was there with the original room key no 7, OH NO we'd read reviews about this room, there is an emergency light that is so bright you don't need the main light on, i commented on it and was told very bluntly it is fire safety and nothing can be done, bad move bud that's my business fire safety and i know you can get a light without the green led. the room itself was ok tho,
room 2 radiator not working
room 2 mould
room 2 socket hanging off
room 2 window didn't shut

Nice last minute pub hotel

Last minute stay in a traditional pub hotel. Room was fine and quite big although I didn't go inspecting everywhere. Had a little black around the shower but hey it's not the Hilton. Food was lovely in the pub, arrived quickly, really tasty. Wouldn't stay for more than a day although the village looked quite quaint until I saw two homeless people fighting outside Gregg's

Comfortable stay near the centre of town

Comfortable stay near the centre of town (Kimberley) adjacent to the former Hardy's and Hanson's brewery. Breakfast was the full english including toast and choice of tea / coffee - no other options seemed to be available. Friendly staff and local punters were welcoming and interested in why you were visiting the area. A number of options were available for dinner and the kitchen was kept busy with a regular supply of orders
