The staff was friendly. Breakfast was first rate, and restaurant food and staff were excellent. The room had a comfortable bed with a good en suite.
There was a loud extraction fan sound below the bedroom. It impacted sleep.

Charming Stay Near Town

takeaway baps comfortable bed ample parking really good breakfast
The pub offered great food, and the staff surprised us with takeaway baps and drinks when we had to leave before breakfast hours. I found this gesture very thoughtful. I also enjoyed the fan in the room, providing welcome relief, and the comfy beds ensured restful nights. I also found ample parking spaces, offering convenience. Really good breakfast with high-quality ingredients.
I noticed some minor wear and tear in the bathroom. The shower pressure was slightly low, but this was only a small issue.

The room needed updates. The linen and towels was clean but felt very worn. I was also three minutes late for breakfast one morning. They did not serve me then. I expected more for the price I paid per night.

lovely stay near the canal

ale selection lunchtime menu
i walked the canal with my wife and wanted lunch nearby. we chose the pub because of its location. it was a very pleasant surprise. there was a good selection of ales and a reasonably priced lunch menu. the gammon i had was really good.
the shower cubicle was small. the towels felt old and damp. i think the bathroom could use some attention.
