Dinned as a family on a cold wet Saturday. Service was good and attentive. However, food was super disappointing, with so much competition locally we had hoped that the food would live up to the location. Food was under seasoned, unimaginative, and lacked basic cooking skills. Bruschetta was toasted bread, with a thin spread of avocado and cherry tomatoes cut in half. Fish and chips, the batter was super thick and chips were hard. It’s a real shame as this could be a go to place.

We stayed one night in Riverswood room on the first floor of the detached cottage. You could not get a better room for three times the price in an upmarket hotel. Very large with huge bathroom. Immaculately clean. Very good supper in front of a log fire. We both had the cod which was cooked just right. The staff were top-notch attending promptly and cheerfully to any of our requests

Had a lovely breakfast last week, and because of the service from Andrea (excellent and friendly host), I came back for just an elongated coffee today when I had a power cut at home! First rate place for food, drink, and just a general warm welcome.

A little overpriced for what it is.
Mostly friendly and helpful staff.
Basic attention to details is lacking.
Needs some serious maintenance and refurb in bedrooms.

Perfect stay
I have stayed here a few times for work and have always had a really nice stay. Rooms are spacious but really cosy with lots of nice finishing touches. The food is excellent and all the staff are super friendly.

i was disappointed with the food. roast potatoes not crispy. veg bland. for the price i would have expected more. the standard needs raising. other pubs are outdoing them. for the reputation locally it is unjustified travelling. the village and the pub itself is lovely and worth a visit. infact the pantry has vastly superior food. friendly staff which was great but again for the prices they were scruffy which gave the impression of lack of professionalism.
