Location perfect for Sherwood forest and the food was amazing!
The welcome was warm, and the guidance offered was clearly understood. The room was clean, well presented, along with a spotless bathroom.
The bed was okay, a tad lumpy but a good night's sleep was achieved. Drinks facilities were provided, shame the cups were so small. What's the problem with providing good mugs for a proper drink.
I had dinner in the bar. Albeit there was a rather rowdy group in, it didn't dampen the overall experience. Timothy Taylors was a good pint, the curry was very tasty with plenty of chicken.
Overall my visit was extremely positive and I would expect to return.

Friendly welcome, comfortable bed, nice dinner & breakfast. Cold room which didn’t bother me really BUT a really poor shower which is always a big disappointment, electric with lack of pressure and very inconsistent temperature … scalding or baltic!
Lovely welcome on arrival the staff were always to hand and looked after all our needs. Tasty breakfast well cooked and plentiful. Comfortable bed and despite being in a room facing the road we weren't disturbed and had an excellent nights sleep. Comfy bar and tasty bar meals.
Excellent service, staff and room, a real hidden gem in the small village. People were so friendly and staff were helpful and room was very well stocked and looked lovely, will use again.
Nice stay, bed comfy, very helpful staff and owner. Great location
Only slight negative is they take a £50 pre authorisation on bank card for room and 2 weeks on it’s still pending on bank balance.
