The Dog & Doublet Inn

Basic accommodation. Pros- Clean Comfortable bed and pillows Good TV Pub onsite Food available Towels provided Friendly staff Cons- Feels remote but as long as you have a car or canal boat its ok. Phone signal is not great. I had 3 and Vodaphone, affected calls and internet connection. No wifi Would I stay again? Yes, for the price paid. No, if the price point raised without an increase in facilites and decor standards. Comment to the owners - I'd happily come back to stay a5 the price point I paid, and would love to try the asian food on offer.

Arrived at 3pm to find the place closed with a steel shutter closed on the inside of the main door Pub had a scruffy exterior which when added to the lack of activity and no signs of life gave the impression it was abandoned. The fact it is isolated in the middle of nowhere didnt help either. A solo female traveller would have felt v vulnerable Even the taxi driver wasn't convinced it was a good idea to stay hereamdlnd hung around for 10 mins in case I needed him to drive me somewhere else. Peering through the windows on the canel side proved that rooms were made up and ready, if I could get into them After reading the fine print I called the contact number and after no reply at first I received a call back explaining that the pub wasn't open until 5pm on a Monday but accommodation could be reached by going through the 'Private No Access gate' and going through into the accommodation block Access to room via accommodation block acess looked tired and needed painting and a new carpet. Room itself was also dated and needed painting and a new carpet. It was small but functional. Bedroom furniture look dated Bathroom v small and v hot. Shower ok and water hot but sealant around shower tray showing signs of black mold and there was also debris around outside of shower tray. Room was overly hot when heating was on but cool when it wasn't and there wasnt a way to control the heating. Portable fan /cooler didn't work.Returned from my event around 10 to find pub shut and lockedup

love the friendly staff who are always helpful and the location is great

Very friendly staff, will stay again, lovely position next to the canal with boats passing by

En suite room. Everything you'd expect from an overnight stay. Would stay here again without any hesitation.

Really friendly and welcoming. Went an extra mile for us as we were running late. Will definitely come again. Thank you.

Hotel was nice, and staff friendly. Food in the pub was lovely too. Walls however very thin, guests in next room had their tv on until 5am which meant we didn't sleep very well as we could hear it.

Lovely olde world pub

Food way to expensive 2chicken burgers in baps £29.90 that’s a rip off ,no fault with everything else

Lovely stay and brilliant food

Right next to the canal, pleasantly appointed dated style rooms, amazingly busy when I arrived, warm welcome, arranged everything for me to have a meal that evening, even though that every table was still booked. Food Excellent, good service. Will definitely return when in the area.

friendly Staff, nice Pub atmosphere, excellent accommodation all round in good surroundings, Jacqueline a great host, all good, will try Malaysian menu next time which looked good and clearly popular. Stuart

Absolutely great stay, friendly hosts & super helpful. Pub had delicious Chinese menu which my little one loved. Playground could use a bit of love & couldn’t turn the heating off in the bathroom. Overall delightful little place and would definitely be back.

people were great very friendly bar and food was great, room was basic bed was comfortable so very good for the price

What a really lovely welcome we received!!! So friendly. Interesting old property. Bedrooms in the converted stables. Would have thought the area would be interesting to explore but we were on business. Dinner is Asian menu and very tasty, ample portions. Inn very popular with the locals. There are two drives to the Inn. One is tarmacked and the other potholes. Entrance not clear which is the correct one. Fortunately its the tarmacked one! We will stay there again.

We booked this last minute for Crufts. The room wasn't ready when we arrived but we were offered a complimentary drink at the bar, which was very busy, while it was sorted. Bed was comfortable, Room was old fashioned but clean if a little run down, however excellent value for money. Had great walks along the canal for the dogs. Would stay again.

Lovely, helpful staff. Food was excellent in the pub, room clean. Good value for money

Very comfortable stay in a picturesque setting

A very pleasant stay in a tucked away little pub. The staff were very friendly & helpful and i had a lovely Madagascan Chicken Curry in the bar before i retired to my room. The bedroom was nice and warm and the bed very comfy. Great value for money
