Very nice stay near to the British motor museum which we were visiting the next day. Would stay again if in the area

For the money, this place was very good (not quite excellent but there is no 'very good' category). It had a small fridge, microwave, en suite, smartish TV, comfy bed (foam mattress) and a supply of tea & coffee. Space was adequate for two. Décor fine. It was quite noisy on Friday night because the adjacent pub beer garden was well populated due to fine weather. Saturday night was less noisy. Also a small car park was just outside the only window which needed to be open due to temperature. The fridge sounded like a jet passing overhead but I got used to it. I had no control over the shower head which liberally filled the shower room floor with water until I had mastered the shower curtain (the sort that sticks to you!) As for the staff, I spoke with one person once. Very friendly and informative. However, the soaking wet shower mat was missed by the cleaner and the decaff coffee not replenished. Very minor. Service otherwise was very good and I expect assistance would have been provided if I'd asked, but that wasn't necessary. Unfortunately, breakfast was not available at the establishment (and the breakfast at the recommended Gilk's Garage café was, I felt, very expensive). Overall, I was really pleased with the place. Nice village/town with pubs, chippy, post office, Co-op, church, café, etc.. Useful facilities were provided in the room. Car parked alongside. Relatively cheap.

Fabulous proper “old time pub” friendly staff and customers. Sadly the weekend we stayed was the last for the pub as it is being changed into a tapas bar. What a shame.
