Excellent generally, but slightly let down by comment below.

We had two rooms and when we enetererd our rooms, they were cold & the heating was on minimum. We turned it up, but had no understanding of what to set it on. As a result, in the night it got far too hot. I turned the rads off at 04.30 but this resulted in loud banging & vibration from the radiator systyem which I am aware, was heard in other rooms at that unsocial hour. I therefore think that the heating system needs a little work. It was a shame that this took the edge off our stay, but the staff, facilities, and food was brilliant thank you.

Booked 30 minutes before i arived, shown straight up to my room and they help with my bag with out me asking. Was given a quick tour of the fire escape route and also given a key for the dedicated external side entrance to come and go as i please ... The room, the staff, lovely shower including all soaps. I paid £68 for there standard room and it was good size with ensuite shower and toilet. Kettle, tea coffee, tv, desk. Multiple lamps, hair dryer and good electric heater and they have central heating too. Nice pub restaurant downstairs in lovely village. Breakfast included in price

I ended up at the Black Horse after being stranded at Peterborough due to an LNER situation - I tried booking hotels in town and they had run out of spaces so I randomly chose a reasonably priced one that was accessible - which ended up being the Black Horse. It looked very nice from the photos and lived up to this image - it's a gorgeous place - an old-fashioned inn with a restaurant, bar and rooms, beautifully decorated. The young woman on duty who checked me in (I can't remember her name but she was great) was extremely welcoming, reassuring and accommodating. The dinner was exceptional - the best gluten-free fish and chips I have tasted! (Coeliacs should check if the tartare sauce is gluten free though) It was great to be so warm and well-fed in such a nice environment after being stuck on the train and then a cold platform for several hours. I'd definitely recommend this place. My room was large and comfortable with space to work and a really good shower. They even let me work remotely the next morning teaching music online no bother! (In fact I got a round of applause from the locals in bar next door when I finished :D) Altogether very friendly, comfortable, amenable and relaxed place. The young bar staff were also great - relaxed, resourceful and accommodating. I'd definitely choose to stay here if I was in the area again, absolutely.

Nothing - it was perfect.

The whole place was absolutely spotless. The staff were lovely. Very welcoming. The room was huge and the bathroom great.. Breakfast was fantastic. Lovely quality ingredients

The evening meal was just your average pub meal. This isn't meant to be a criticism as It was definitely OK. We can't stand brioche buns so ordered burger without the bun. Burger was lovely but chips just your average frozen chips. We'd definitely stay there again. There was a wedding celebration being held which was obviously a little loud but the noise didn't bother us at all.

The room was spacious and the bed very comfortable. Facilities in the room were good and the en suite bathroom was fine (nice hot shower - plenty of towels.) Breakfast the following morning was lovely - well cooked and hot and self service section ideal. Staff friendly and efficient.

Sadly although the room was lovely it was directly above the bar/social area and there was a party going on and the noise and vibration carried up to the room itself! Happily it DID stop at around 1130 pm. I wasn't aware that there would be a party when I booked but was advised when I asked what was the latest time I could return to the pub/hotel and was told then that there was a party happening that would conclude around 1115. (It was a bit later than that but as said earlier, was around 1130 when the music/vibration stopped!) So all good in the end.

Fantastic room, double and single bed. Perfect for longer stays, lots of space. Great location, in a small quiet village, great pub, garden and food. Crisp linens, comfortable mattress and pillows. Tea and coffee making. Tasty full English breakfast! Cereals and fruit etc. also available.

Rooms 3 and 4 are directly above the entrance door, where people often stand smoking. I had to shut the window. Breakfast coffee was instant Nescafe so I asked for fresh machine coffee, much better!

Beautiful decor in a character building. Spacious room with a comfortable bed. Very pleasant and helpful staff.

No heating in the bathroom and being there during a very cold spell of -3 temperatures meant it was far too cold to use the shower. Hairdryer was one of those rubbish ones fixed to the wall, wasn’t very powerful and the mirror was too high to use from a seated position.

I have stayed here on a couple of occasions and always found it to be very friendly and welcoming. The staff always greet me kindly , as i do them. A nice place to stay when i am in the area.

The WiFi is sometimes suspect and this was on of those occassions. Nothing else really. I stay in hotels weekly, so I can be very critical of not really bothered and it is a 'tool' for my work so writing about it weekly is also something that I do not care to do too often. I am more likely to write if i have a positive about a hotel.

nice to have a drink and also to have a meal

water pressure was not very good on shower, and it needs to be replaced with a better head as it was not good enough, it also would be better if there was a radiator towel rail in bathroom as it was cold in there it’s ok in summer but not in winter, as you cannot dry your towels after showering, also the restaurant was rather cold especially in the morning having breakfast, we have stayed before but it was in summer we just stayed the one night last time so did not use the shower but now it does won’t updating

We had an evening meal in the restaurant which was very enjoyable. Good value too. The servers were lovely- helpful, caring, friendly and efficient. Breakfast was nicely cooked and a good choice of hot food. Maybe a little limited on the continental side. No fruit or fresh coffee. Overall we were happy. Comfortable room and nice shower.
