    Nice and clean bedrooms with comfortable beds. The free waters/hot drinks were a nice touch. Simple but just what we needed. Check in and out was easy and staff were friendly.

    Lovely cosy little room in an outbuilding at a pub just a couple of miles off the A1. Ideal for what we wanted as a place to bed down for the night on the way back from London. Lovely bathroom and the packs of biscuits to go with the plentiful tea...
