The Wheatsheaf

Thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The room was lovely and clean, I particularly liked the scent of lemon in the room which was so fresh. The new management - Belinda and Tom, were so accommodating and friendly. Such a good, happy atmosphere in the evening and the open fire is a delight and cosy. We had a delicious breakfast prepared for us by Tom. I met couple of the locals that expressed how happy they were the premises were under new management, as it was slightly runned down before and it’s now back up and running by people that care. I’d highly recommend staying or even just visiting for a drink. 5 stars from me.

I mistakenly booked a non-ensuite room for £60. It was at the front of the pub directly above the bar and about 20 feet from the main road. So good luck with sleeping, although on the Saturday night about 10.30 there was only one person in the bar. Anyway, we changed to ensuite (£15 extra), which was at the back in an annex, window level with the beer garden. So again, luckily the place was dead. Room was very small, nowhere to put clothes except an open hanger, everything dated and whilst not exactly dirty, everything had that worn-in grubby mucky look eg shower mastic and sink grout black, that indicates the place needs ripping out and refurbishing. Sink too small to even get a wash in. This should be £25. Glad it was one night only.

Went in for a nice Sunday roast, but the food was below par! The beef was very thick chunky slices, the gravy was just congealed lumps, the broccoli was old and had turned yellow, the roast potatoes were anemic and should have been called boiled potatoes possibly one of the worst roasts I have had
