Limited menu, i.e, we arrived at 2oclock, hoping to grab some lunch, but the hotel had finished serving, day and night menu the same, just wanted a few sandwiches!! There was no atmosphere here either, probably wouldn't stay again

Recommended base for local area attractions
We used the hotel to visit the Roman Villa at The Newt and also the Fleet Air Arm Museum as both are with 15-20 mins drive from this excellent value hotel. Great breakfast and we also ate dinner at the hotel both nights. Very pleasant stay with good food, great service and attentive staff. Note, aircon in the room is a standalone unit which we didn't need to use. Comfortable bed and quiet location and the room had plenty of storage. Recommended. We would stay again.

Couldn’t fault the service, staff and food!
Service, staff and food quite excellent. En-suite had an unfortunate aroma of mould / dampness and the room could do with a bit of a spruce up.

Charming
The hotel was charming as were the staff. Our light supper was very good but unfortunately the breakfast was not great as the poached eggs were over cooked and as we were due to leave straightaway we couldn’t re-order. We would still stay there again when we are in the area.

Beautiful hotel in a charming village. We were pleasantly surprised by our stay in this hotel who go out of their way to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. The rooms are well thought out with comfy towels and dressing gowns provided. We had a lovely meal in their restaurant, very spacious with exquisitely embroidered napkins! Beer garden was a delight to sit in with fabulous view of countryside rolling hills. Lots of information available about the local area.
