Traveller reviews

“Straight out of a Christmas movie”
14 Jan 2025
I stayed here last summer and it was great, so I booked again for myself pre-Christmas while my wife was visiting family. It was as close to a Christmas movie as you could hope to find. The place is simply stunning. Quaint, small, and no thrills, but somehow still perfect. The menu was great, the trad band in the pub were wonderful, the staff are great, and the Christmas decorations were lovely. The location is also great — it's proper village — you can reach hiking routes from the doorstep and most of the village joins you in the pub in the evening for drinks. If you want a few quiet nights away, undisturbed, good wholesome food, good wines, good ales, lots of dogs to cuddle, and rolling hills as far as the eye can see, this is the place. Bear in mind, the restaurant is closed on Wednesdays — their sister property, The Paper Mill, is open opposite on that night — it's literally across the road and serves pizza from a stone-bake oven.

“Fanstatic stay”
09 Jan 2025
The breakfast was fanstatic and the room was nice and cosy. Bed was comfy.

“Superb”
05 Jan 2025
Everything was amazing, we stayed in the 4-poster bed room with a balcony and it was incredibly spacious and comfortable. The balcony we didn't get to use as much as we wanted due to the icy weather - but we caught some amazing sunrises. The food was expectational, our booking had breakfast included with a variety of choice from hot cooked breakfasts that you pre-book and also a range of continental/lighter options. We also booked a table for one of the evenings and enjoyed some fantastic, fresh food. The atmosphere was lovely - also amazing for if your a dog lover like myself! The staff were friendly & helped us out with route ideas for our walks. On the topic of walks, the website offers so many different walking routes for all hiking ability. Overall - 10/10 stay.

It's a beautiful old building with lots of period touches, from the beams to the stone windows and leaded glass. The staff were exceptional, warm and friendly throughout our stay, and both the evening meal and breakfast was superb. For our first weekend together, I couldn't possibly of chosen better.

“Cosy and delicious”
25 Nov 2024
Despite thick snow and then storm Bert, we had a lovely time and managed a fairly lengthy walk with only some rain. The Inn is cosy and the food was great and we liked the option of eating next door at The Paper Mill as well - great set up and friendly staff
