Absolutely excellent service, outstanding food, wonderful staff who couldn’t do enough for us. Currently going through renovations but the room was very clean, DIY breakfast was topped up each day and can recommend the full English, which was an extra charge but definitely more than worth it. Thank you to all the staff and will definitely return

Spacious well equipped rooms with great restaurant

I stay at the Willow House a couple of time a year with work and have always found the accommodation to be excellent. Spacious rooms with plenty of power points, fridge, toaster, microwave and some breakfast supplies in your room. The bed is comfortable and although the ensuite is compact, it has everything you need. The restaurant serves great food too.

Rooms were a big size. A little cold and needs a bit of a refurb but generally good value for money. Pub is lovely, I didn’t try the food.

Will stay again

Food was delicious, both evening and our cooked breakfast. Came with continental in room but fancied a cooked one. Also had microwave oven, fridge and toaster too, which would be a bonus if staying longer. Dog friendly and very friendly staff. Ignore the building site outside whilst they are renovating.

Room was very clean and very well equipped together with a extremely comfortable bed. Food in the pub was exceptional in terms of quality and portion sizes!! Staff were all very friendly and welcoming. Only minor negative observations are that the annex accommodation is a little tired from the outside and beware the footway leading to rooms as there lurks an unmarked trip hazard across the pathway - be careful !! However, overall, a very good place to stay and we would recommend.

Not a bad stay

Comfy bed and reasonable DIY breakfast (cereal / toast / yogurt / juice) but property a bit tired outside and inside. We had the joy of a water pump constantly on and off all night which kept us awake. Sound proofing in general isn’t brilliant. Did the job for a night but it is not the height of luxury - damp in bathroom and ceiling clearly had a leak at some point. The welcome message states they’re under going some refurb - I didn’t see any work ongoing.
