Great little village inn in a cracking part of the country. The view from the car park is wonderful. The landlord and landlady were really chatty and friendly. Tasty meals and a good-sized room. Can't fault it on any account.

We had a good stay in a clean and quiet room (even with a storm outside). All staff were friendly and helpful. The young lady chef Lyndsey, had started our breakfast slightly earlier than usual to accommodate our travel plans, which was appreciated, as was the delicious cooked breakfast, good quality ingredients, well cooked and served on a hot plate - something many luxury hotels still do not do, so the food is cold in a short time.

A lovely country pub, with excellent, beautifully cooked food. The hosts are exceptionally helpful and friendly, and couldn’t do enough for us. Very dog friendly - we were able to have our Labrador with us when we ate in the bar. Bedroom quite small, but manageable. Situated in a really beautiful area, and within easy reach of Richmond, which is an interesting, historical town with lots to see and do.

Lovely family friendly B and B

Lyndsey and Mark were brilliant for our stay, so friendly and gave tips on things to do in the area . We also had a dog with us and they were very accommodating. Lovely B and B, close to amenities but far enough away for some peace and quiet. Food is also lovely, we had breakfast and tea.
