Lovely old fashioned pub with pretty hanging baskets . Our room was large and nicely furnished . The bed was one of the most comfortable we have ever slept on and the ensuite had a bath and shower which was fantastic . We couldn't fault the fish and chips that we had in their restaurant and there were 3 choices of real ale on handpump , which made us happy. Breakfast was served between 7.30 and 9.30 and was excellent. The only downside was the road noise in the morning , but we will be happy to return.

Lovely place to stay
I had an overnight stay with my dad. We live a long distance from each other so decided to meet midway. The accommodation and food were excellent and the staff were very friendly and professional. This is a delightful place to stay. I will definitely go again.

The Pub was clean and tidy, the flower display outside was outstanding, a lot of time and effort went into the display all around the pub. The staff were very friendly and watched the football with locals in the dining area they were very very friendly as well. will say here again.10/10

Fantastic Place
I stayed here instead of booking into a premium inn in the town and this did not disappoint. It was worth the extra drive just to eat. The staff were very helpful and friendly and the room was clean and very comfy. The highlight was certainly the breakfast it was delicious and it set me up for the day ahead.

Lovely village pub, unfortunately the restaurant doesn’t open on Mondays which wasn’t mentioned on Expedia when I booked. However pub gave the option of ordering a takeaway which could be eaten in the pub, as it was I drove to nearby Oakham (4 miles) and had a nice meal. Staff all welcoming and enjoyed a nice cooked breakfast in the morning. Room was spacious and bed was comfortable. Only downside was the shower wasn’t great and there was black mould gathering high up near the ceiling above the shower.
