Dog friendly, helpful staff great for an overnight break on a long journey ( both ways!) Easy access from the M6 making a break from motorway driving. Penkridge is a really interesting place to stay and take a break on a long journey. Very welcoming villager and quiet away from the main road. However the pub is a little noisy at night ( we stayed on a hot summers night!)

Breakfast was excellent, staff helpful and friendly. The superior double room was much nicer than the standard double and worth paying the small extra amount for. We had our 2 dogs and hotel is very dog friendly although the £25 per dog per night was a bit steep. Hotel is well located right in the middle of Penkridge, Saturday market is brilliant. We would return.

The Littleton Arms are in a convenient and easily accessible location. Rooms were comfortable and clean having recently been decorated to a high standard. Beds also comfortable and good pressure on shower even though on top floor. Breakfast was excellent having the full English while there were lots of good alternatives to choose from too. The BAD bit ======== Thursday night was Steak night and we booked a table for 18:00. Having been shown to our table it was 30 minutes before anyone came to take our order for any food or drink. The food did then arrive pretty quickly. Having finished the main course we waited a further 30 minutes for someone to collect our plates and offer desert after which we gave up deciding to do without a pudding and pay up.

Check-in was great and the family room we booked was clean and a good size. I removed some stars based on a couple of things. The service, mostly 20 somethings, didn’t come with much of a smile which seems normal these days unless they are well trained by the older generation who realise what service means. We had a drink order at dinner pineapple and lemonade. We were brought a lemonade. This was pointed out at which point the waitress went away and came back with a lemonade again just in a different glass! Also, the fish in the fish and chips had a section that was not fully cooked.

Very nice first impressions met by friendly helpful staff, room as you would expect, only downside was breakfast continental and full English said to be included, we arrived during normal breakfast time several other guests waiting - very slow service- continental was cereals only, wasn’t available to help yourself until waitress brought table in with juice and milk, cooked breakfast to order- which was very slow coming almost an hour taken up waiting order/get and eat breakfast with only 8 - 10 guests breakfasting so slightly let the side down in this department

Attention to detail and service. We dined late on a very busy Friday, without a booking but were accommodated politely with no fuss. On top of this the staff, who were under a lot of pressure, served the whole restaurant and bar with excellent professionalism and courtesy making it was a pleasure to dine and be served. Room and the whole premises were clean and tidy even though your undertaking refurbishment. Great Job Guys.
