    My only comment is there seemed to be a lack of hot water from the shower. We showered relatively early (between 7-8am) but second person had lukewarm to tepid water each day. Perhaps a capacity issue or just an issue for our room? Not a major issue and wouldn’t detract from returning in future

    We chose property due to its location near to Severn Valley Railway as we were attending an event here. Property was easy to find, had on-site parking. Our room was spacious, with nice bathroom and dog friendly. Good breakfast choices and cooked breakfast arrived hot and delicious.

    Bed, although comfortable was low to the floor. Style of room was a bit dated.

    Friendly staff, nice tasting average pub food, although the service was slow. Good shower.

    The bin in the room hadn't been emptied and contained rubbish. There was toothpaste on the bathroom tap which I initially thought was limescale until it wiped off. There was no heating in the room, despite turning the thermostat on the radiator on, it was freezing that night. I had a really nice meal and had planned to enjoy a few drinks and complete some work (which I couldn't do as the WiFi wasn't working) but after having my food delivered, I sat for approx 40 minutes without ever seeing a member of staff so I went back to the room. It seemed like out of sight out of mind sadly. I was asked if I enjoyed my stay on checkout, despite stating there was a couple of issues, I wasn't asked any further about what they were. Despite the niggles, I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

    Lovely quirky pub. Spacious room, very large and comfortable bed. The staff member who checked me also showed me to my room and explained about the exterior door and fire alarm. Although he had finished his shift, he had no issues helping me with the WiFi issue and showing me to a table. Great service.

    No major dislikes whatsoever, the in room fridge could have been a little larger, however not a problem just something to note.

    The modern rooms, the facilities at the property & the polite, helpful staff. The pub itself serves excellent food at reasonable prices given the quality of the meals.

    Plumbing was a bit of a problem, tap and shower fittings fell off but staff were very apologetic and compensated us with breakfast on the house, we were also assured that the problem would be fixed.

    Room was clean and comfortable. Staff were polite and friendly and made us very welcome.

    Waiting for breakfast which was very slow to be served [bearing in mind there was only one other person taking breakfast on both mornings we were having breakfast... ] The member of staff serving breakfast seemed completely disinterested, not the best start to our day.

    A very warm and cosy bar area. [which was particularly welcome as throughout our stay the weather outside was cold and wet!.] Friendly bar staff upon our arrival. Very enjoyable evening meals with attentive staff serving us.

    In the Gooseberry room the bed was beneath the velux window which I wasn't keen on because of down draughts, particularly in winter and I am susceptible to the cold.

    Helpful staff. Comfortable, spacious room. Great bath. Enjoyed the bar and eating area and lovely to have the woodburner to make it all cosy.

    A couple of little details e.g. ‘hairdryer available’ didn’t mean there was one in your room- needed to ask! Bit late if you were wet & in a towel before you realised! Nowhere handy to stand your toiletries bag by the basin.

    Warm, friendly & popular pub. Plenty of character. Great breakfast.

    it is a pub. There was some noise until midnight on Friday night but it didn't disturb my sleep. But you should know this if you are expecting a completely silent early night.

    Room was spacious and clean, the bathroom well proportioned and again very clean. The bed was very comfortable I slept really well. Great sleep Plenty of towels provided again all clean. The food in the restaurant is well worth staying in for. Fantastic. I had the pea and mint soup and the blade of beef which was absolutely delicious. For breakfast I had avocado again so tasty and good fresh ingredients Staff really helpful overall and willing to help and accommodate any questions.

    Room facilities I.e. lack of tea, coffee, spare blankets, toilet roll.

    Excellent friendly staff, meals were top notch, bedroom comfortable with a huge bed. The only downside was a lack of supplies in the bedroom, for a two day stay we had insufficient tea and coffee facilities, but we could have asked for a room service which we didn’t; only one toilet roll which we didn’t notice until late on our second night, after going to bed, when we ran out and realised there were no spares. Usually hotels do provide spares. Don’t let that put you off, in all other respects our stay was excellent and would have been marked as such but for our tr debacle.
