  • "The pub also has a dog friendly section which is great."

Cons:

  • "The disabled parking bays they used to have near the entrance have been used for external seating and tables but not replaced as far as I'm aware, which isn't great if you have poor mobility."
  • "I didn't get as far as the front door. Pulled into the car park and there're now charging customers to park!!!!"
  • "There wasn’t an obvious place to go to to say that we had arrived for our advanced booking so as it was our first visit it was a little awkward."
  • "Also another point would be the toilets, they were clean however the locks on the doors were not working and the toilet seats on both toilets were not attached correctly which is quite dangerous."
  • "Sat at the back in the conservatory, soon became obvious I should of taken a dog."
