"Absolutely apalled the way I have just been treated by what I assume was the manageress, maybe the barmaid?? We dined last night and I have to say the food was average, we both had steak and kidney pudding one was fine but the other was oversized and under cooked...gloopy. However, the bang bang cauliflower starter was amazing. We didn't complain as the surroundings and staff in general were very pleasant so much so we booked for the following evening, tonight. I ordered the lamp rump pink as expected, however it was almost raw. I had to go to the bar to find the waiter who immediately agreed it was way undercooked, and returned it to the kitchen. Once returned the lamb was ok however the veg was not hot and the gravy was lacking. I advised the waiter as I went back to the lounge and he apologised and said he would remove it from the bill. So at this stage all was dealt with in a helpful and professional manner! Until I went to pay! The lamb hadn't been removed, I questioned this and was asked what was wrong so I advised and basically the manner in how I was questioned was abhorrent. A lesson in both manners and customer service is required. I hasten to add all the staff and Darren I believe the owner manager where beyond reproach, it was just the lady behind the bar. Maybe they/ she believes that the 4.5 star reviews means nothing is questionable. However we are all human and everything is not always perfect, mistakes happen and should be dealt with accordingly."

I had the most beautiful meal I can remember. All three courses were spot-on. The fried prawn starter then the belly pork and finally creme brulee. Wow. Compliments to the chef doesn't hack it in this case. Brilliant. Thank you. View menu

The little touches like canned still water in your room every night. Spacious room, no pressure to go down to breakfast at a certain time or to leave. Food amazing, best lamb I have had cooked for ages, nothing too much trouble by the hosts. Location great.

Visited the Old Kings Head with family members. The staff were friendly, polite very efficient, they made sure we had our drinks and were settled before showing us the menu, which had a variety of items to choose from. The food was hot, tasty and very enjoyable, nobody had any complaints. View menu

Lovely homely hotel pub restaurant well run with customer service a priority . We were made most welcome and had friendly chat . Beer a choice of 6 cask ales sparkling and clear and quality coffee served. We only dropped in for a pint but looking at the menu it was reasonably priced and i'm sure we would have experienced a quality meal. Comfortable lounge and dining areas

What a lovely warm welcome we received from the staff at this pub. Our first night of our holidays my partner, myself and our two black Labrador girls turned up at the pub starving, tired and in desperate need of a rest after being stuck on the M6 for what seemed like forever!! When we arrived we had missed last orders for food. Being a small village there was no local chip shops or takeaways near which meant us having to ride around not knowing the area looking for something to eat. The lady behind the bar did no more but found us a comfy seat where our girls could stretch out, poured our drinks and made sure the girls had water, gave us the menus and said I can’t see you starve . We enjoye...

"We were sure to book ahead for a table of 4 for 5.15 as it was a late Sunday roast we were fully aware that not everything would be available so it was no surprise when we were told that there was only gammon left for the roast option however there was still fish and chips homemade steak pie or vegetable lasagne. We happily opted for 3 gammon roast dinners and a homemade steak pie with mash (you get the choice of which potato you'd like) The food arrived piping hot with plenty of everything and it was so so tasty you could really tell everything was lovingly made from scratch for the roast the potatoes came both roasted and mashed with cauliflower, broccoli and carrot and swede mash. A generous helping of gammon and a large Yorkshire pudding with gravy that was clearly made with the juices as it was so flavourful. The steak pie was brilliant too homemade with large chunks of steak and a choice of potato and whether you'd like the same veg as that with the roast or with peas. This also came with gravy. For dessert there was a choice of either chocolate fudge cake, caramel apple pie or sticky toffee pudding and you had the choice of either cream, ice cream or custard. 2 of us got it with custard and 2 of us got it with ice cream and it wasn't overbearingly sweet it was perfect with a delicious caramel top! We all thoroughly enjoyed all the food and the drinks and service and will be back again one day if we find ourselves holidaying here again"
