    Lovely pub, friendly welcome and room was spacious, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Situated right on the riverbank, slightly out of the centre - really peaceful.

    Good food exelent service. wonderful location. Nice easy walk to the iron bridge. Close enough to the river but not too near to worry about flooding even though the river was high.
