We had a lovely stay at The Hood Arms. The owner was so friendly and hospitable, letting us have a late check in. We slept brilliantly and had a very nice full English breakfast in the morning. Would definitely recommend!

Parking outside the pub was full but there is a small village car park on the opposite side of the road to use. The mattress was extremely comfortable and the room well presented woth a great choice of teas, coffees and biscuits available in the room. There are a few walks that can be done straight from the pub. I was doubtful about staying at a pub but this place was excellent.

Bed was massive and so comfortable, as were the pillows. Great breakfast, including a crispy hash brown. Lovely area. Free parking. We sadly didnt have time to eat in the pub but the menu sounded great. The main member of staff very kindly dropped us to a venue where we left a car the night before, this act of kindness is very rare and we massively appreciated it. We hope to stay again! To make it easier for guests i would recommend they include an info sheet in the room as we didn't know the wifi password and were in a black hole for signal, and also include local taxi numbers etc.
