Came for the room, but stayed for the pub.
Pros: Nice bar to have a drink. 10 to 15 minute walk to the centre. Good restaurant around the corner. Nice shower. Decent, but small bed. Cons: Definitely not recommended with hot weather. Room reaches 30 degrees. Housekeeping didn’t do a proper job cleaning the room. Room is very dusty.

Lovely stay in a pub !
The perfect weekend away. The room was great with a huge comfy double bed and an excellent shower. Best water pressure I’ve had in ages and the espresso machine was a big bonus. Pub is located just a short walk along the river into town which was perfect for us to get a tour of the city on the punts. Stayed for dinner and breakfast and both were brilliant. Fresh ingredients and pub classics done right. The ale selection was great as well. Staff were all lovely and the pub had a warm welcoming atmosphere from the moment we arrived. For the money you absolutely can’t beat this and staying above
