Friendly staff with great rooms and good food. Plus a perfect pint. You would have difficulty finding anywhere better to stay. Very quiet and peaceful village. First class. Thank you for the stay.
What a wonderful stay. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, rooms were clean and spacious. The food was good for both breakfast and dinner. Would definitely stay here again.
Really lovely place in beautiful location. Room was fabulous, very clean and comfortable. Was very quiet too and got an excellent nights sleep.The bar was great for a late night drink before bed, staff were very helpful and friendly.
Breakfast was excellent ( cooked options not included in price) the only negative was there was no gluten free option.
Would definitely stay again.
All in all a great place to stay and eat good food
Very Friendly and welcoming staff with a great Ambience. I benefited from a free upgrade on my room which was a nice surprise.
Pillows were fairly firm, some something to consider.
All in all a great place to stay and eat good food
We stayed for one night after our spa day at Ragdale hall in this lovely traditional hotel/pub in the charming little village. The rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated and absolutely spotless. We reserved a table in the restaurant and enjoyed a lovely meal and the included continental breakfast the next morning. Very accommodating host, thank you. Would highly recommend!
Fantastic room. Very spacious and spotless.
Good choice of evening meals snacks and full meals available.
Breakfast a little disorganised no places set had to ask for cups plates etc .
Cooked food not included in price per night.
Would definitely recommend a stay here.
Really nice pub in the centre of the village, staff were friendly and happy to help, room was very nice and comfortable bed etc and the food in the restaurant was lovely.
Only spoiled by really by local clientele in the bar area being loud, vulgar, misogynistic and racist laughing loudly over such jokes and old enough to know better. I’m no prude and travel widely but just no need in such a nice bar.
A very pleasant stay. Check was easy and all the staff helpful. Room was clean and comfortable, fridge was very useful for fresh milk for tea/coffee. Very nice to have a bath and a shower too. Parking available and wifi connection was reliable. Very good ales in the pub. Only minor quibble was over breakfast. On the booking site it stated free breakfast, but on arrival we were told this was only the continental option and cooked items were extra. Perhaps this be clear on the booking site?
A lovely old countryside Inn which has been modernised to an excellent standard whilst maintaining the old features The bedrooms are of a good size with comfy beds and stylish ensuite with powerful shower The room we stayed in also had the added benefit of air conditioning which was welcoming indeed with the ouyside temps being over 30^c
Food service and all staff were excellent and all in all we found The Star to be a great place to stay
A lovely room - with comfortable bed & clean, modern bathroom. Radiator worked well to warm it up - but slightly difficult to manage temperature as it seemed to only be on or off despite having a thermostat.
Excellent dinner in restaurant with a huge fish & chip portions
