Lovely spacious room with a balcony and a large shower room. Comfortable bed. Nice evening meal and breakfast very good. Service at breakfast not so good on the first day, but much better second day.
The room could have done with some coat hooks and a safe.
We rendezvoused with our family here for lunch. You can judge a pub/hotel quite often by the salad it serves. Is it tipped from a bag? or did time and effort go into the preparation? The Bear excelled. The food was very good and the children's menu was very thoughtful. Very competitive pricing and great staff who could not have been more helpful and polite. My only regret is I forgot to leave a tip which was richly deserved my apologies to the fabulous staff. Thank you.
The bar/restaurant area is very nice, the staff are great...friendly, efficient and bubbly. Good menu looked very nice but unfortunately we'd arranged to meet friends elsewhere for dinner so didn't eat on site, (looking at the menu, we wished we had eaten in). Nice decor and some interesting history. We stayed during the recent heatwave in a really nice room with balcony and thankfully a fan supplied, but because we had to keep the window open all night, we were kept awake by some people being loud outside in the garden, (or on other balconies?), until approximately 2am, so not a lot of sleep was had. We commented about it at checkout and we were told that other guests had mentioned it also. There is a function room on site and it could've been overspill after the function had ended, but something to note if booking a room here, and it kinda spoilt our stay a 'bit'. That was the only issue really, but maybe it should've been dealt with by the staff at the time? Looking the recent reviews, it happened the night after we stayed as well, so it must be an ongoing issue? 🤔
