Great location, but a few negatives

We were concerned that staying in a pub might be noisy but you couldn’t hear those in the pub or outside noise. The room was a good size, but with a character property comes a few negatives. Firstly the stairs to the second floor were steep and narrow. Floors are uneven, slope and creak. The bed was too soft for us but the pillows too hard. The room was far too hot even after switching off the towel rail. A fan is provided and was kept on overnight but didn’t make much difference. The window was small and would be hard to reach if short, I’m 5’7 and struggled to reach the blind cord. The shower screen didn’t fit properly so the floor became soaked. Location was good, especially for Silverstone circuit.

Stayed here several times but never on the 3rd floor. Room 19 shower was a dribble. There is virtually no wayer pressure in this room. Bed was small. The hotel is a quirky old coaching inn, which is part of its charm. Next time ill request to stay in another room.

Sleepless in Towcester

Lovely old Grade 2 listed building. Shame the road outside was like a race track and the windows were not sound proofed in any way.

Great stay, only issue shallow bath :-(

The stay was very nice. Easy to find and a very warm welcome. Considering we arrived late and in the storm. The lady on the reception was very helpful. The overalll stay was Good. My only negative point was that the bath was very shallow and i was looking forward to a nice bath on arrival after travelling for 3hrs. Other than the bath not being deep enough, the place smelt lovely and clean. Was very Christmasy and cosy. The bed was comfortable and we really loved the place as an overall stay. Cheap too so thats always a bonus.
