Great first stay at the Joiners Arms. We took our dog and they had a bed, ball, bowls and treats in our room. Sunday lunch was amazing as ever, service prompt, extra gravy not a problem. Couldn't fault breakfast, really impressive and the check-in/check-out was easy. Would highly recommend.

Oldy-worldy charm in a converted attic, complete with a copper tub (separate from the bathroom). The only (minor) downside is the narrow, steep staircase to two of the rooms which might be troublesome for some people. Excellent 5-star breakfast.

We really enjoyed our stay. Food was excellent. Only hiccup was no hot water on the first night, which was rectified as quickly as they could. Only suggested improvement would be to add a lamp/light switch next to the bed - it was a bit odd not to have it.

Stayed in building opposite the pub, the room was very small and in need of a little TLC. Food in the Joiners was very good, the parking is very limited with only four spaces, there is a free car park nearby. Only stayed for one night so not to much of an inconvenience...
