Excellent Food and Clean Accommodation

quiet surroundingsgood foodlovely garden
The location offered quiet surroundings. I found the food at the pub to be very good. I also enjoyed the nice pub garden where I sat for a while. The outside seating area would be lovely during the summer months as well I noticed.
The provided Internet often disconnected, making it difficult to stay connected sometimes.

The staff members were very attentive and friendly . One very kind staff member offered to take me to a nearby venue. I thought that was generous. They really were really nice I must say.

The food in the pub was fantastic. I particularly enjoyed the pork chop. There was also an amazing spinach and chickpea curry served with chunky chips. The location of the pub right there after a long day was great indeed.
