  : Family room with separate bedroom for our daughter with small 'lounge' between the two. We were only staying one night to attend a family funeral but the location and village are very pretty indeed and would have liked more time to explore. We also returned just a few minutes after food service but the staff were very accommodating and the chef kindly stayed a little longer than usual to sort out meals for us. The choices for breakfast were great and to have that included as part of the rate was a plus.
  : Anyone with asthma just needs to be aware....The building and accommodation is extremely old and although the decor and cleanliness couldn't be faulted, the room we stayed in smelt 'old building' and of damp in the air (note that nothing was visible anywhere). It's just one of those things but my wife awoke the next day and had difficulty breathing for a while until we'd been out of the room (15) for some time. I and our daughter were absolutely fine.

  : The room was lovely, cool and comfortable. Everyone was very friendly
  : The place is being renovated by new owners so we couldnt eat in the inn

Disappointing

  : It was in a nice location and the staff were very friendly
  : Entrance to our room was dated, paint peeling on the wall, a musty smell. Creaky doors, thin walls. The plumbing was noisy from next door, the decor was dated, the bathroom sink cracked, ceiling paint falling off, the shower box was dirty with mould . The breakfast was ok, however the sausages were reheated by deep frying and were tasteless and chewy. The pub smelt of dogs and damp. All in all not inviting atmosphere.

Very Good

  : Location, friendly staff and the possibility to explore the surronding.
  : The pub and restaurant were under renorvation. So no experiance ... a cliffhanger for the future.

  : Having not received the notification that The Woolpack had changed ownership a month ago & the new owners had embarked on a major internal revamp of the hotel therefore there was no breakfast provided nor restaurant dining available in evening, we were still warmly welcomed, given an upgrade of our room & a downward adjustment of the tariff. Despite their exhaustion the hosts still provided bar services to us & loyal local patrons.
  : Bearing in mind the above comment, there was nothing we disliked - in fact the informality that prevailed was absolutely to our liking.
