Lovely pub and decent room

The room was off a court yard, it was a double room with sofa bed and was adequate size with a small private entrace hall, with the room and bathroom off it. Handy for kicking shoes and coats off and leaving there. The bathroom and room were large. The batroom had a separate bath and shower, the bath was a little dusty and the fittings a little dated but it was clean other wise. The room was clean, comfortable bed and adequate drinks making facilities. The pub served a lovely evening meal and breakfast. It was dog friendly - but not ott, no fuss made of dog or treats or water bowls that I saw. But definately dog tolerant.

The accommodation was very spacious (bigger than a lot lot of hotel rooms). There was a good selection of reasonably priced meals for dinner, which were also good portions. Vegetarian options also available. Ian was very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast the next morning was also very good. Well worth the stay. Thank you.

Great family stay

We really enjoyed our stay. The location is very convenient along A12 for visiting different places in the local area but we did not hear any road noise. Room 3, the family room, was very spacious with 3 beds and plenty of space for the whole family. Good TV service with lots of streaming services available. The bathroom also very large with a great shower but also a bath which is handy with a family. Good temperature. Furniture showing a few imperfections but more than adequate for the price. No hairdryer in room but sent husband I to the pub to get one and they gave me a new one (would have been annoyed if alone though) We had dinner first night which we really enjoyed. The burger was excellent and although some Italians are probably rolling in their graves somewhere, I also really enjoyed the not very authentic pizza - really tasty with lots of toppings. Coffee and adnams beer/wine excellent too. Cooked breakfast was very good with great sausages and eggs cooked to liking. Excellent coffee served. I would prefer a lighter option like avacado on toast or something. I forgoed breakfast on day 2 as checkout so early (10.30am) and had to get my two daughters ready for the day. The girls really liked the playground on site. Overall a ver enjoyable stay.
