This place is excellent and very well appointed for its moderately low price. The room was spacious and clean and the restaurant was very good. It served my needs for a stopover in the area BUT BUT BUT There is a kitchen fan which was on all night and made a TERRIBLE HUMMING NOISE. I asked about this and the owner seemed to say no-one had mentioned it before but looking at reviews I see they have. This was only solved by me sleeping in a small bed on the corridor side. This must be fixed please.

We generally had a good stay at The Blue Boar. It is an attractive building in a lovely, quiet location. The room was clean and good and the food in the evening was well cooked. Breakfast was a bit limited, with no fresh fruits, but was otherwise OK. Our only criticism was that our ( premier!!) room was above the kitchen and we were a bit disturbed by two loud humming noises from there overnight, one of which was constant and the other intermittent. Other rooms, in different places, probably wouldn't have been affected.

Ideal Location

Very good stay . Lovely location, great staff and friendly and professional service. Only disappointment is the breakfast time 0700-0830 during the week. Nice when relaxing on a break to lie in and enjoy breakfast a little later

Great value, food and accommodation

Stop over after a family occasion. Excellent value and great rooms. Food in the restaurant was great and traditional as well as an Indian selection. Breakfast was good in the morning although it was from 7 - 8.30. A bit early and doable.would definitely stay again.

i booked a deluxe king room, the room was very spacious although no window which made me feel a bit anxious, 2 skylight windows in roof, would of been nicer to have a couch or couple of comfortable chairs to relax on rather than having to sit on the bed, only a small area for hanging clothes and no drawers for items like tshirts and underwear..the mattress was springs so where others have sat it didnt make the best to sleep on! ..a big plant in the corner of the room took up a lot of space and in need of a good dust! ..there was an ironing board and iron and the bathroom was lovely with complimentaryshower gel soap and body cream..so much potential for the room..but overall ok. breakfast was ok, first day i had a cooked breakfast, it wasnt hot, just warm so a bit disappointing, 2nd day there was only us and another couple for breakfast and there was nothing out to help yourself to, cereal, yoghurt, coffee etc, so felt a bit restricted in choice. overall a lovely pub, staff lovely good parking and lots of history to it.
lovely large room
unnecessary plant taking up room for a nice couch

Lovely place to stay and eat

We had a great two night stay and enjoyed breakfast and evening meals. The menu is much better than your normal pub food and the Indian dishes are worth trying. Cannot be faulted for the comfort of the bedrooms bar and restaurant, service provided by the staff and quality of the food and drink
