Very helpful reception staff very welcoming and informative. Room was very clean and ready for us. Bar and restaurant staff were also excellent attentive. We had an excellent meal, the bill needed a bit of sorting out as the system had difficulty sorting out the normal menu and the offered special but got there in the end. We were with friends ( who used to be in the hospitality industry) and overall we were impressed. Thank you to all at The Bear we will be back

Have stayed here several times over a number of years - staff are lovely, food tasty and rooms comfy… stayed in the main house for the first time and although the room was lovely, it was directly above the bar so there was some noise - maybe worth considering if wanting an early night! Otherwise a perfect stay x

Our stay was ace, hotel drinks expensive and didnt eat there due to the same for food. (2 drinks circa £18) butttt the location was excellent for dog walks and the hotel very cute and quirky. Breakfast was delicious and fresh. Side note. We stayed in room 7, at 12.30am i had to go to ask the porter to ask whoever was in the bar below our rooms to be quiet, i heard every word of their conversation and it just wasnt great for that! Really ruined it for us slightly. We ended up getting up at 7.30 and leaving by 9 more tired than we arrived.
