Reviews

Chris Worby Jan 27, 2026 05:15:20 AM
Summary: Great rooms, friendly staff and great food. Huge choice of wonderful breakfast options (I tried most of them)
Joanne Jan 22, 2026 06:23:40 PM
Summary: Rooms 3 and 4 at the front of the building are extremely loud - lorries passing all through the night. Bathrooms in need of maintenance with smelly drains, poor shower and broken plug. Food and staff excellent though so if you're not bothered by road noise worth a stay.
Alison Sep 30, 2025 08:20:59 PM
Summary: Ideal place before flying from Bristol airport. Room was excellent and the staff superb. Would certainly use again.
John Sep 10, 2025 07:54:00 PM
Summary: It was good
Shelley Aug 31, 2025 09:08:19 PM
Summary: Great food with gluten free iptions - available all day. Lovely spacious room and bathroom and staff were most welcoming and helpful. The only downside was road noise - our room was roadside and we stayed saturday night. Maybe it would be quieter mid week tho i dont know. Otherwise a great inn.

Summary: Great
Jaime Jul 2, 2025 01:40:29 AM
Summary: The property was great and the price was very competitive for the surrounding area. They allow as to arrange late check in and late check out, although it took quite a few calls and they still knocked on the door whilst I was doing my interview. We also had a few issues ordering breakfast but in the end it arrived and it was really great. Overall, I would highly recommend

Summary: This was an overnight stay while working locally and this place was chosen for its location and the fact that it’s a pub as well. The room was nice but could do with some TLC but I was very comfortable. The bar area was a little cold but I soon warmed up with the lovely food that was on offer and the staff were really friendly and helpful which is why I would recommend this place to others thinking of staying here.
