Give a miss unless you are desperate.

Stayed for 1 night and was quite glad it was only for 1 night. When we arrived we found that the room had not been cleaned properly as we found a red pill on the dirty carpet and an empty can of lager in the bedside table. As we settled in we found dust covering most of the surfaces along with cobwebs and spiders on the lower rafters that could easily have been cleaned up. We also found mold in the shower and water had been left in the kettle since the room was last used. The car park is small and they do let you know that parking is limited but when we came to leave we were blocked in and when we found the cleaner we found out it was her blocking us in and was nice enough and moved her car. The fire exit doors were also left wide open all night so guests can get back into their rooms when the pub is shut, but also allows anyone or anything else to come in as well. We wanted somewhere close to Diddly Squat farm and it does tick that box, but that was about it.

The manager, Barry, was an absolute delight and so accommodating. He clearly loves what he does and is a master of hospitality. The atmosphere of the tavern was delightful.

We were lucky we called as we hadn't anticipated that we had to arrive by a certain time. We were simply handed a key to our room - no paperwork or information about how to depart the following day. It was a very noisy room in the morning and with the traffic. Other than this - OK. No car parking to speak of as only 3 spaces at the back. When we left - nobody was around - the bar was locked so we just left our key in the room door and departed. Seemed strange not to see anyone.

Had to stand at the bar for 10 mins whilst staff chit chatted before I could check in. Beds could do with replacing, but other amenities were nice. Note that it is above a pub so will be loud in the evenings, that didn't bother us though.

Location good. Property very scruffy - old mattress in car park etc. Parking a problem - very limited (3 spaces) and shared with locals so even less available to 13 resident rooms. Exposed carpet grippers between bedroom and bathroom - painful and hazardous. Cheap mattresses. Felt dirty overall. No breakfast available for which we were grateful in the end. Strictly no refunds.
