Charming old building with cosy rooms. Excellent restaurant downstairs. Nice views of the river and sailboats. Right at the promenade. Access to the rooms through the staff area of the kitchen. Private bathroom was not en-suite.

Liked: Staff & service
When we arrived the staff were welcoming and friendly although booking in system a bit chaotic and we did not receive all information about servicing rooms on daily basis. Ran out of towels, clean crockery, coffees and no hand wash in bathrooms. Bathrooms not very clean and floors decidedly grubby. A real shame as perfect location and very nice staff, maybe management issue! Rod and Sue

Had a really nice stay. Staff were very nice and helpful. Room was quite basic but was ok for what we needed. Breakfast was really nice. A little loud on an night but this is understandable as it is a pub.

Quirky but comfortable

Quirky and comfortable. Room was not level but expected in a pub this old Radiator was very noisy so I turned it off which sorted it nicely Green emergency lighting in room tended to light up the room too much Lovely view from the room overlooking the quay which you can’t better If you are driving, parking is very limited outside with just an hour between 9 and 7 pm. I got around this by parking from 6 pm to 10 am but it can fill quick Plenty of car parks are available at cost nearby 10 min walk which have free motorcycle parking Breakfast was good
