The Hat het is a loverly picturesque pub/ hotel. Welcome excellent, food and ambiance perfect. VFM good. The thing that let it down was cleanliness of the room- smeared bathroom mirror looked like it was cleaned with a soiled cloth ( had to clean it to see any reflection!) the toilet rim covered in hair & dust & the lamp shades & corners of the room rife with cobwebs. We did enjoy our stay however and we did report the room dissatisfaction to the young service lady but no apology or explanation from the landlord? Dogs welcome on a lead in bar & rooms.

Great hosts

A tucked away stay where the noise of silence and occasional birdsong was fantastic. Great hosts all the way from check in, through dinner, plentiful breakfast and check out.

As always, the stay here was excellent with pleasant staff and good food. Will be staying again next month and the only thing I could suggest for improvement would be the shower door and handset in room 6.
