Stayed in building opposite the pub, the room was very small and in need of a little TLC. Food in the Joiners was very good, the parking is very limited with only four spaces, there is a free car park nearby. Only stayed for one night so not to much of an inconvenience...

We really enjoyed our stay. Food was excellent. Only hiccup was no hot water on the first night, which was rectified as quickly as they could.
Only suggested improvement would be to add a lamp/light switch next to the bed - it was a bit odd not to have it.

The Accommodation was very good. Room was nice and spacious. Food was nice and a good quality breakfast. Shame about the parking, nice in summer with light nights but a bit dark in the winter.
