Lock in a great price for The Inn on the Mile - rated 8.9 by recent guests.

to get started.

Fabulous big bed, quilt and pillows which were just the right level of support. Room had all the amenities you could wish for and was extremely clean. Toiletries of a high standard and lovely hairdryer with a nozzle- perfect for blow drying. Great bar/ restaurant which had live music on and a friendly atmosphere. Breakfast was lovely - sufficient choice and great service from friendly staff.

Janice, United Kingdom

Love the location, the pub, the food and the staff! SUPER helpful, friendly and accommodating. The first time we stayed, it was called The Bank Hotel as the building was an historic bank...so tons of character & charm!! Also the first time we stayed, the pub was being renovated and we weren't able to try their food - this time we were, and were exceedingly impressed! The burgers, the bennies, and the sticky toffee pudding were FAAAB!!! Some of the best we've had!

From the moment I got to the hotel, the entire staff made me feel at home. The room was immaculate, and oh so relaxing. Any questions I had during my entire stay they were more than happy to answer. Oh and they give you a free beer with your stay, perfection!

눉The caramel wafer biscuits were rock hard and had obviously been there for some time! The bathroom was small and so a shelf beneath the mirror would have been useful to store toiletries. As the room was on the top floor we had to climb up several flights of stairs. Whilst this wasn’t a problem for us, older and less fit people would struggle.
눇Fabulous big bed, quilt and pillows which were just the right level of support. Room had all the amenities you could wish for and was extremely clean. Toiletries of a high standard and lovely hairdryer with a nozzle- perfect for blow drying. Great bar/ restaurant which had live music on and a friendly atmosphere.

“Second stay!!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Executive Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉Two very minor things: #1 - the bed was exceptionally hard, with little buttons in the mattress cover & a large zipper protruding in the middle. #2 - the tiles in the shower were loose, they pinched my husband's toes on two occasions. I used the wonderfully large bath tub all three nights, so it didn't affect me! Both easy cosmetic fixes though - a mattress topper & some grout. Neither of those things would keep us from staying at the Inn on the Mile again, like I said, this was our second time! Plus we never mentioned it to them while there, as it wasn't reason enough to ask for a room change.
눇Love the location, the pub, the food and the staff! SUPER helpful, friendly and accommodating. The first time we stayed, it was called The Bank Hotel as the building was an historic bank...so tons of character & charm!!
