Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently appreciate the Lamb Inn's spacious rooms and convenient parking. The location is ideal, with attractions just a short drive away. Many enjoy the varied breakfast options and find the dinner menu interesting, while some guests feel the charge for dogs could be better justified with more dog-specific amenities. The exposed beams and open fire add to the warm and cozy atmosphere that many visitors love.
The location offered free parking. Beds were also very comfy. All staff were polite. They welcomed us upon arrival.
The Sunday lunch felt overpriced. The menu only had pricing for multiple courses, it seemed like subterfuge. I did notice the obfuscation.
