I booked a table at the hotel for my husbands birthday. We'd driven past it many times and always said we should go. We had a very warm welcome from Karen and ordered drinks at the bar. My husband was delighted by the choice of real aies. Our meals were excellent and very fresh and hot. The timing was perfect,... More

My wife chose this hotel, and the first thing I did was go on Trip Advisor and look at the reviews. Some of them persuaded me that this wouldn't be the right hotel for us, but now I am glad I chose to see for myself and had I listened I would have missed out on a very pleasant 3... More

My daughter and son-in law booked a meal for mothering Sunday for my wife. In total there were six of us including our grandchildren aged 3 and 5. We arrived around 12.00 and shortly placed our orders. For the next 45 minutes we were the only people in the dining room but still did not receive our starters for a... More

The School House is a wonderful, characterful building in a peaceful location. My room was spacious, comfortable and well equipped, with pieces of Victorian furniture giving it a unique feel. There are no tea/coffee making facilities in the rooms, which some people might mind. My room looked out over a small natural garden to fields beyond. The hostess gave me... More

Decided to try the school house for a meal out with friends. One of our party is gluten free and we informed the restaurant when booking the table who said this wouldn't be a problem. On the night she was not disappointed as she was told that practically everything on the menu could be adapted to accomodate her dietary needs.... More

This is a lovely old building and the welcome was friendly. I would however point out that the Bed in my room and also that of my colleague was very uncomfortable as the mattress was more springs than padding so not a great night! No Tea or Coffee in the room was also a little dissapointing for a hotel of... More

Beautiful old building tastefully decorated. Good food, warm welcome, friendly owners. Loved it. Would definitely go back. Good choice of real ales in the bar. Real fires in the bar and restaurant. Very generous portions of food. Only criticism was despite the fires the restaurant was a little cold but with a 30 foot high ceiling that is perfectly understandable.

The hotel is great. It's an old school and listed building. I went for a room with period furniture and loved it. A bargain for the price. The whole place has great character. If you want premier inn don't stay here but if you want authenticity, its perfect. The walls are nice and thick so you cant hear other people.... More

The family had excellent food and excellent service on the day but sadly was empty. This is a greatly undervalued hotel which has great potential. I do not understand those who have complained about the food or rudeness from staff. THEY WERE GREAT and very accommodating. They need the custom to ensure you get the quality!
