"The hotel was very busy. We had dinner in the restaurant. Julie was fabulous and extremely busy, but still took time with us. Food and service was excellent. Lots of parking. Nice bright restaurant. Breakfast was excellent."
"Had a great stay here on a Sunday night. The weather was great so we were able to sit on the terrace.
There was both a wedding and a family party during our one night stay which took up a lot of the outdoor space but we did manage to find some seating.
Food was good and plenty of options"
"We booked our stay almost a year ago and were pleasantly surprised! As a wheelchair user in an accessible room, I found the facilities fantastic. Check-in was smooth; the desk is high, but staff thoughtfully provided a clipboard to sign paperwork.
Our ground-floor room (Room 18) was clean and spacious enough to park and charge my wheelchair overnight while still moving comfortably. The bathroom featured a roll-in shower with a seat, a red pull cord, and a left-side drop-down transfer rail by the toilet. Note: the bed is standard hotel height with no pull cord or bedside sockets (ample sockets exist opposite the bed, which was fine for us). They also provide a vibrating under-pillow emergency alarm.
Spa access was great. I rode to the changing room—which has a fully accessible roll-in shower/seat and toilet with rails—and used my walking stick to reach the pool. However, please note there are no transfer aids or hoists for the pool or hot tub.
The food was fantastic! Any minor issues were rectified quickly, professionally, and apologetically. The staff were incredibly attentive and considerate throughout our visit.
We had a truly wonderful stay and will definitely be returning next year!"
"Five stars for old and charming. I've taught about the use of coaching inns in play production during the Tudor period. I'm from California, so it was very exciting to see one in person. I recommend the best room--the Oak. It's reasonably priced and will make you feel as if you are in a period movie. The New Inn is well located for seeing the Cathedral, which is unusually rich in history and warrants a guided tour. The bar carries a very good selection of beer."
"Rooms are clean and comfortable. Bathroom offers minimum amenities (1 bottle of body wash and shampoo), and for some reason there was no hot water in basin or shower in the morning! Breakfast ordered from menu, so it's freshly made. Although difficult to contact/get response via email initially, staff were helpful in returning lost property item to me which was much appreciated! Would recommend staying here if in area"
"We stayed one night, good location, nice food/beer garden, good food and drinks, staff was friendly and helpful. We were unlucky that the Wi-Fi and tv didn’t work, not from lack of trying by the staff, they fixed it, and 10 minutes later, stopped working. I would definitely recommend if you’re in the area."
"Situated on the ground floor during a heatwave wasn’t great. We were left wondering if all the rooms in the hotel were full and perhaps they could have located us in a room with a window that opened.
The young man who served us for the evening meal was very attentive and very polite which was nice to see. Not so the staff at breakfast."
