Looked lovely inside with the Christmas decorations and all the staff looked smart as always We were shown to a seat in the bar by the windows but it was freezing so asked to move and ended up sitting in front of a door and window where again it was really cold so put up with it ! Asked for the fire to be stoked up next to us but were told it won’t get any hotter than it was ! All the staff were polite and helpful but the food let it down on this visit The turkey on the roast dinner was barely Luke warm and one of the roast dinners didn’t come with any mashed swede and cabbage The Christmas pudding was the tiniest piece ever known to man and was charged £8.50 for it ! And the jam roly poly was rock solid in the middle and we were refunded for that ! The tandoori chicken skewers were beautiful though The ice cream and cheesecake were nice also Shame really

What a wonderful evening this was, from our initial arrival and being taken to our table, to our departure with a lovely send off from the staff, so polite and attentive throughout. We had the Christmas 4 course menu, which was absolutely amazing, we were all stuffed to the brim, but thoroughly enjoyed it. Made a great start to our Christmas celebrations x Been to The Inn many times now, but this was by far the best. Thank you to all the staff x

We took my 89 year old mother out for a festive celebration. The Inn is extremely comfortable, welcoming and offers a wide range of food, from snacks to elaborate main courses with all the trimmings. We intend to return for her 90th.
