The Bluebell

We were able to park behind the pub where there is a gate to the rooms. It was a small studio courtyard room with nice extra touches like bathrobes and a fridge with cake & fresh milk. Bed was quite comfy, the linens were nice, but the pillows very flat. Unfortunately there was an awful smell coming from the bathroom, which didn't seem to be the loo & more the shower drain, so we kept the door closed & the light/fan on, which lessened the smell. Dinner was very tasty, as was breakfast, although the chef was left alone to cook & serve the breakfast, so it made it a little awkward & took some time. Obviously the missing staff member could have had an emergency, so hopefully they are ok. All in all & nice stay.

Everything! Staff and service were excellent from the moment we got there until we left! The deluxe room was beautiful- spotlessly clean with some lovely extras like fresh milk and cake as well as delicious coffee. The food can only be described as amazing, with generous portions served both at breakfast and our evening meal- so much so, there was no room for pudding! The Bluebell was genuinely dog friendly- our dog was made to feel very welcome. I cannot recommend this place highly enough both for quality and value for money! We will definitely go back!

Breakfast was exceptionally well cooked on both mornings and served promptly and with a smile. I was made to feel like a valued customer. My room was perfect. I was able to park right outside my door so felt that my vehicle was safe and it was easy for me to unload. I was left with milk in a bottle in the fridge and enough tea and coffee for far longer than I was staying. I was also left water and fresh orange juice in the fridge along with cake and shortbread. Even the hair dryer had a long lead so I could actually look in the mirror when I used it. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom had a good sized shower with hair and body gel provided. I had lasagne for my first dinner which was home cooked and absolutely delicious and the steak I had on the second evening was cooked (rare) to perfection.

Pleasantly surprised by this pub with rooms, having stayed in similar-looking pubs, similarly priced, that were only so-so. Comfortable, clean and thoughtfully kitted-out room. Very good dinner, chosen from an extensive menu. Breakfast also very good and service excellent. Quiet location but close to where we wanted to go, with good road links. Rooms appear to be all in separate single-storey buildings in the grounds of the pub itself.

breakfast and evening meal excellent. Lovely helpfull staff. great parking and presentation. Very helpfull recommending a place to eat, though the food there was not as good as that at the Bluebell. A lovely atmosphere.
