"During my business trip, I stayed at The Royal Oak, a charming traditional pub with rooms. Keyless entry instructions were provided, allowing for minimal interaction if desired. However, I appreciated the friendly service when shown to my room. Despite its small size, the room was well-equipped, clean, and recently renovated. The steak and kidney pudding was delicious but the portions were generous. Breakfast was also impressive, made with high-quality ingredients. Although there were a few minor issues, they were more for improvement rather than complaints. I didn't mind the constant but not overly loud generator on site, as I always travel with earplugs. The small carpark may require some maneuvering, and the coffee pods for the machine weren't the best quality. Overall, The Royal Oak offers good value for money and I would gladly recommend it."

After completing the online booking and arriving at the allotted time we were told the kitchen was closed. We were not offered any alternative so had to order from a takeaway delivery service.

Unfortunately one of our meals was incorrect, chicken left out of the chicken fajitas. Apologies were made but the food was left on the table whilst the chicken was cooked so went cold. Howevervthebrestbif the party really enjoyedctheir meals

Easy to book on line. Very friendly welcome. We choose eat in the garden which was no trouble at all. Although the pub was busy the service was fantastic. The food was fab too, plenty of it and great value for money. Will definitely be going back. View menu

The first time we went to the Royal Oak the food was lovely and of food quality. The spring rolls were very authentic as were the fish cakes. This time they were different, clearly shop bought and tasted bad. The mains were also tasteless and veg was cold. Very sad to say we won’t be back, as we thought we had found a real gem.

Top marks for the desert was the best part of the meal, with the Belgian waffles, Regarding the main meal the fish and chips, the fish was acceptable and I have tasted much better but this one was okay, the big disappointment was at the end of the meal and drinks, my sister asked for a glass of water, which was ignored, and after checking, the receipt a Schweppes was is given instead, presumably because that is chargeable, whereby a glass of water from the tap may not have been, which she requested , if we had not been let down by this unfortunate occurrence, then five stars would have been given
