As soon as I booked in Bridget made me feel right at home.which as a solo traveller I really appreciated. I observed other staff being friendly and welcoming to customers, not in a way that made them sound as though they had to be like that but because they genuinely behaved like that. The room was a good size very clean and the bed was comfortable. The food I had was good too. All in all an excellent experience with a team being led by a lady passionate about giving quality service Thoroughly recommend a stay here

Holiday, short stay away.

We had a lovely 2-night stay, the staff could not be any better, very personable, always jolly and happy to have a bit of banter. It's great to see that, even though there has been a change of hands, The Sun Inn us still a great place to stay. The Breakfast selection was set up just right, you could choose from a piece of toast to a full English, there was even an option of a bigger full English lol. Dining in the evening was superb, smallish menu, but something for all. All in all we had a great stay whilst visiting a couple of local attractions on our holiday.

This was a really lovely place to stay. We received the warmest of welcomes and excellent service from all the staff throughout. The room was well presented, clean and spacious and despite being near a busy road was very quiet. The food served in the pub was simple, fairly priced and delicious. The location was brilliant with Coate Water tucked behind so we enjoyed a couple of beautiful walks by the lake. I would definitely recommend The Sun Inn and look forward to returning.
