Anonymous United States of America

Everything was good. The room was by the carpark at the back, so no main road noise. Perhaps due to covid restrictions it was peaceful in the evening. Good place (locked, dry) for bicycle.

Clare United Kingdom

Great place to stay! On the high street, close to the river and The Thames Path. My room was clean, comfy and warm. Lots of food choice around. Tesco opposite the pub. Good value for money!

Kinga United Kingdom

Great location, clean and comfortable room but it was the staff that really made it for me. Super friendly and went out of there way to go the extra mile for me. Would highly recommend!!! Thank you for an amazing stay!!!

David United Kingdom

My room was in the old stables. There was no window but that was fine as I was walking The Thames Path and was only there to rest and sleep. The room was clean and warm, the bed was comfy, the shower was hot and powerful, the host was really welcoming and there were clear safety considerations in place regarding covid-19. I slept really well. Recommend.

Caroline United Kingdom

Absolutely beautiful place x perfect location for walks and getting to the water sports lakes x but the best thing was the wonderful staff x so welcoming and lovely x
