Gorgeous traditional pub with cosy chalets
Gorgeous traditional pub with authentic touches. Excellent room, lovely stuff and very dog friendly. We stayed just for one night, on our way to channel crossing. Great rural location, but only a short distance from main routes. A real gem! We will be back soon.

This was a lovely base for us whilst visiting friends our only niggle was the service with food in the pub as we were forgotten at breakfast for so long we gave up waiting. They were very apologetic but was a sad end to an otherwise lovely stay.

Accommodation was seperate from pub. Nice greeting from staff on arrival, comfortable room with good size ensuite. Easy chairs to sit in within room. TV was small. Wifi not great and phone signal poor. Free parking at venue. Food at pub was okay, service was slow.

We had a lovely experience here. The room accommodated our family of 5, the grounds were beautiful and there was an EV charging station on site. The restaurant was great. We loved the decor. The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

The secluded countryside location was idyllic, contemporary room with extremely comfortable bed. A bench outside the lodge would have, in my opinion, added to the experience. The staff here were fabulous and a special thanks goes to the guy behind the bar who helped me back to my room, a real gentleman. I would recommend a stay here for anyone looking for old fashioned and quintessential english welcome and experience

Decent, unpretentious old school inn, serving a variety of victuals in a rabbit-warren of higgledy piggledy nooks and crannies within an interesting building. 'Rooms' are a selection of annexes to the main pub, and, if mine was anything to go by, well equipped, clean spacious and comfortable. Cheapest stay of this trip, but without question the best. Would definitely recommend and may well come back sometime in the future.

I recommend the Black Horse. Very quiet and restful. The main building (pub & restaurant) is quite old and interesting with multiple levels and interior structures. The Garden Area was a delightful area for a pint and dinner, service was friendly as was the check-in. The grounds are sloped creating an inviting green impression. The beds are comfortable, the room size is adequate as is the bathroom. It has the typical bath/shower combo with a (typical) high sided tub. As we get older, we find using that type of shower more difficult and will start avoiding them when possible. I want to stress that my comment is not meant to be negative about the Black Horse but rather those type of tubs. When the time comes to renovate, I hope they change to a walk-in shower.

Hotel staff were really friendly and helpful. Pub staff also, and kindly gave my father no less than 5 different tasters of beers so he could decide what to drink! Lovely quirky interior - looks small from the outside but had lots of different small dining areas inside. Only tiny drawback was the very steep hill up from the rooms furthest away from reception. I hadn't seen it flagged on anything but that may have been because I used a third party site to book online
