We stayed here for a nearby wedding. We had a family room which was really spacious with a lovely, and again spacious, ensuite bathroom with bath and shower. Staff were really friendly and we had a great night's sleep. We paid for cooked breakfast which was made to order and also included some self serve cereals. If we were in the area longer we would have loved to have a drink in the bar area and try the food.

Below standard
The room was a little below par with chunks of plaster coming off the ceilings in the bedroom and bathroom, a mirror had been removed from the bedroom some time ago you could tell as the paint underneath was a different colour to the rest of the room which really brought the standard down. On reflection the food was over priced for what you recieved, and in my opinion wasnt worth it, £16.95 for a chicken burger and a few fries - see pic

Great venue for food & location for walkers
Trip was for an overnight stop seeing friends at a charity event at Chipping village hall. Arrived at 4 pm and had a superb meal before going out. Very good selection on menu with a variety of special dishes. The staff were very friendly and made our stay very pleasant with a good hearty breakfast the following morning. Matt was very friendly & most helpful telling us about future events. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and certainly would return again.

Great stay x
We stayed as a family of three, we received a warm welcome dined in the restaurant and stayed one night. Food and service was great. Our room was spacious and comfortable and we all had a decent a nights sleep, there were a couple of things we had to ask for but these were quickly provided for us. We’d stay here again :-)

Avoid like the plague.
Very disappointed. The building is not manned at night. No outside security lights. No instructions given on check in about how to get in. Took us 20 mins to find the entrance door at 10.30pm- it was round the back behind the bins! Ruined my best shows because I stepped into a puddle looking for the door. Raining & cold. Roadside. Dangerous. Felt vulnerable and unsafe. Room was old fashioned. Wardrobe looked like it was from a flea market. Not worth the money. Mattress uncomfortable. No topper. Would not recommend & will not be returning. Complained at checkout & was told lots of other people have said the same things. Then why have they not changed things?????

Disappointing
Arrogant and confrontational staff that are over confident of what they have on offer. Made to feel we were doing them a favour staying here. The food was over inflated and failed to deliver on the night, I couldn’t eat my steak due to the amount of sinew. The room was tired. It’s no wonder they are now trading under a new name!
