The Olde Peculiar

So the pub is closed on a Monday. Nothing about that when booking. No where to eat and room was freezing cold till I found the heating switch. Only towel I could find was a hand towel. Won’t be back. Couldn’t complain as no one there.

The pub, the food and the drink are very good indeed, but the accommodation side of things is not quite to the same standard. It's ok for a quick overnight there, but... the TV didn't work, the bathroom light flickered, the bathroom heater was broken, the walls are paper thin so you hear everything from next door and there's general wear and tear. The info folder had leaflets in from 2015 and 2017 so no recent attention there and the online photos are a little rosier than the reality. There's a tourist board sign on the wall saying 3 Star - mmmm, maybe at one time in history, but suspect the sign might be there yet the accreditation no longer! Other online reviews capture other points. It's basically an old fashioned Travelodge set-up, but with just a little more investment, effort, know-how and attention to detail it has the potential to reach the standard of the pub side, which it felt like is where the owners main interest and effort goes and the rooms are more like a case "well seeing as they were there when we got the place, suppose we might as well still do it" kind of thing.

Parking was easy with accessibility being very good. Staff were very welcoming. The room was adequately resourced, clean and comfortable. Slight noise from the room above could be heard early in the morning, otherwise was a quiet location. We ate in the restaurant which was very nice indeed.

Upstairs room really big, good location, free parking. Stayed there before, would stay again.

Great room

Friendly staff, clean rooms, good value for price

Room was clean. No breakfast available which is a shame.

Nice clean room with clean and bright shower room. Biscuits, coffee and tea. But bed not brilliant.

room was clean and everything i needed,

Clean room very warm comfortable bed

A slightly confusing booking process. The rooms are not a part of the pub but are slightly behind/to the left. Staff when checking in seem to assume you know where you are going. This would be the case if the car park was clearer and directed you to the entrance rather than the one you see from the road. The pub is great and food excellent. Room was clean, large and very comfortable. Shower took some getting to used to but once you're sorted it works well. Will stay again

Lovely stay to visit family. Good location. Friendly place. Comfortable room. Food looks great and entertainment too. Would definitely return.

Unfortunately I had eaten enroute so did not dine in the nicely furnished olde style pub which took orders until 20.30 but, despite my 20.20 arrival I was given opportunity to eat. The bed was very comfortable. An armchairxwas provided in addition to a chair.

Nice, clean with a nice local pub right across the courtyard. Very handy. However the pub is only open limited hours and no where else to eat within walking distance except a fish n chips joint. We stayed in apartment 3. Suited our family of 4 well, but note there is no mini fridge or micro that a family might hope for. Walls are thin too but not a big deal.

The room was bright and airy and very clean. Although the re was no-one to welcome us the key was left in the door. The only real negative was the shower. It was very small and a bit of a struggle manoeuvring the door to actually get in it!! However, the location was good for us and also being a pub was handy for food. Overall a pleasant stay.

Lovely pub with rooms. Just what we needed for our stopover on a long journey. Good beer, lovely food, comfy beds.

When I booked the room it was because there was a restaurant I don’t stay anywhere I can’t have a meal. When I got here the restaurant was closed on this day, no where on the site did it say this, I was furious as been driving all day and wouldn’t of stayed here if i had known

lovely place and very helpful staff.

Lovely little pub with friendly locals and brilliant food. Wished I was staying longer!

This was a great find at a reasonable price. Stayed in the family/suite room. The room had everything you could want including a detailed book of information for the hotel and local attractions. Food was also good and reasonable. Hotel does not currently offer breakfast. Overall, Fantastic! Would stay again :)
