Perfect village pub with rooms.
Lovely village pub with well appointed rooms. Very welcoming and helpful staff. Great food. Ideally placed for Bristol airport but not so close that it’s overrun. We will definitely stay again.

A very nice country pub and hotel.
A really impressive stay with great service and friendly staff. The room was beautiful and very comfortable. We had dinner in the restaurant which was of a very high standard. Couldn’t fault it and close to the airport for an early departure. Highly recommended.

Stunning!
I booked 2 rooms for an early morning flight and we thoroughly enjoyed our short stay. There was a free carpark next to the pub and the staff were efficient and friendly. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the bathrooms were the best I’ve seen in a hotel. Stunning! Will definitely stay again for a Bristol flight (15 minutes away)

Noise from the kitchen extractor was loud until quite late which was a shame. The bathroom had swing doors which were stiff & noisy to open during the night & with an auto light sensor meant that when one of us got up to use the loo the other was woken up. Shame as it’s a lovely place & it wouldn’t put us off staying again. Also very handy location for Bristol airport.

Perfect long weekend
Lovely rooms above a great pub with a cracking breakfast. Everyone we dealt with was so helpful and friendly. The area was perfect for walking and exploring and you could reach other pubs and restaurants by foot. We would definitely recommend and are planning a return trip.
