Fair play - five stars for service. Five stars for food - the best sauce by far (knocks the socks off Michael Caine, Marco Pierre White, Jamie and plenty of top hotels - I know because I have eaten there and can compare) Deserts to die for! Picture this - winding country lanes, sweet chirping of birds, rustling of trees,... More

We met friends in this highly recommended pub for dinner on a Friday night. It was packed and the beer was excellent. But the food was disappointing - poor quality steak, dry dauphinoise potatoes and puds that were not tasty. The lovely young waitress took money off our bill but at the prices advertised we expected better.

We were fortunate enough to receive the 7 course taster menu meal as a gift. The day of the meal we unexpectantly found the we were to be accompanied by our 4 year old grandson.

We had a great stay here on a travelzoo offer. The room was nicely furnished and extremely comfortable. Bathroom was sumptuous with lovely toiletries - only problem was no shower head but it didn't seem to matter as it was so lovely.

We visited three times during last week while house & dog-sitting in nearby Queen Camel. The service during each visit was impeccable. My four year old son loved the kindness of the staff when he wanted to give the dogs a biscuit, conveniently available at the bar. The food on both menus was delicious but most of all, every person... More

We stayed for 2 nights at end of March. We found the pub to be very cosy thanks to a roaring log fire and comfortable seating and also our room (room 6) which was warm, well appointed with strong shower in the wet room. Dressing gowns were supplied which was a nice touch although could have done with some hooks... More

My wife and I had a most enjoyable stay in this excellent gastro pub. Delicious food and delightful bedroom.The staff were all very friendly and efficient. Our one minor complaint was that on the second night of our stay we were seated next to a sealed up doorway in the restaurant and the draught was quite cold.
