    No fresh coffee at breakfast! On arrival there had been a mess up between Booking.com & Marstons... it was only because a very diligent member of staff managed to work rooms out that I was actually able to get my booking! Make a positive check with the hotel staff before travelling!

    Room basic but totally satisfactory; excellent shower! Breakfast cooked to order and pleasant service. Remote and peaceful village/riverside location but perfect for all major roads in the area. I would definitely recommend this hotel/inn,

    The first room we were allocated had low sloping eaves and looked out onto a brick wall.

    Sherrie was exceptionally helpful in finding a good room for us when we were unhappy with the first room we had been allocated. We finished up with a very pleasant river view.

    Nice beer and setting to drink it in with a very nice Indian restaurant a very short walk away. On site meals are average for the price.

    Great picturesque riverside location, friendly staff, always very clean. Great value for money.

    No complaints! Could hear faint music at night but it wasn't from the restaurant or hotel so I assume it was other guests. Wasn't enough to disturb sleep though.

    Friendly staff, child friendly, great food, large room, clean and lovely location.

    Massive cobwebs hanging from the ceiling and lights. And curtain pole. Well worn carpets. Furniture was well worn and marked and very dated. Old outdated tv. Needs some tlc and a good revamp. Could be an amazing place. Shame really. Just needs some money spending on it.

    Comfortable bed. With clean linen. Friendly staff. Lovely location. Good food.

    It was nice being by the river and going for a walk next day, and we had a nice meal at the pub in the evening. The staff were all very friendly
