Everything, all staff very welcoming and courteous! Room exceptionally clean, warm and comfortable. Breakfast delicious! Would definitely stay again.
Staff pleasant and helpful. Easy private parking. Good breakfast.
Hotel in middle of village with easy access to all shops etc
Only criticism is with room - 12. Twin. Very narrow single beds and dim lighting. Main light too low and caught head walking past - only a shade but seems silly to be so low.
Also TV obstructs cupboard and is awkward to get past
Would stay again but ask for different room
A great experience, staff were so impressive, extremely helpful and welcoming. Room was great food was very good also.
All in all a place I look forward to staying again.
We liked everything about this property - from the large bedroom (Room 1) with a large en suite with both shower and separate bath - through the excellent breakfast - to, last though not least, the great and friendly service provided by all the staff.
Super stay as a half way point from Wimbledon to the coast on bikes with kids. Excellent, spacious family room. Right on the Down’s link. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Lovely atmosphere on a sunny afternoon. Gastro pub, although we felt that the standard of the food could be improved a little. Overall though an enjoyable stay.
Beautiful rooms, comfortable beds, good tea tray, very clean. Very impressed.
Didn’t have breakfast as didn’t appear to have anything for the children who prefer cereals, croissants etc. adult menu looked good though.
Nice pub and hotel. The food was good and the room was spacious and comfortable. The bathroom shower was very small and enclosed. The staff were friendly and the location had a lot of shopping around it
A very comfortable 2 night stay, no major gripes at all - service and food was very good.Bar was quiet come bed time - some furniture could do with upgrading but thats a minor point given it was a great place to stay with easy access for Surrey Hills and South Downs.

Ticks all the boxes
Friendly staff, really large modern comfy warm room, excellent restaurant for dinner and breakfast. And it is a great, busy pub with a good selection of (proper) beers.
Even the problem with a slow draining shower tray in the morning (reported and being dealt with) didn't dampen a really relaxing overnight stay. Will return next time we are anywhere in the area.
This is a very special property which combines olde world charm with modern comfort, and is one of those rare places that exceeds your expectations. Staff are friendly and welcoming and the bar and restaurant charming and the room we stayed very spacious and comfortable. There was a good selection of real ales and the food outstanding; both my husband and I describing meal and particularly our starter (independently) as exquisite! Our thanks to everyone and in particular Gavin the chef. The only point we could think of for improvement was the signage for the car park.
