Our stay at The Queens Arms was delightful! The cozy log fire in the bar area was perfect for a relaxing evening, and the food was exceptional, especially the homemade pork pie paired with a local beer. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had a lovely large shower.
Could use more comfortable seating options in the bar.

The location and decor create a charming atmosphere, complemented by friendly and welcoming staff. While the beds were comfortable, the food fell short, particularly with the ploughman's and cheeseboard lacking value for money and generous portions. The quality of the dish was overshadowed by small servings, leaving us hungry after our meal.

We had an amazing time with delicious food and a beautifully decorated room that felt so cozy! The garden area was perfect for unwinding after a busy day and the live music added a nice touch to the evening. Just a heads-up that the parking was a bit limited, but it didn’t spoil our overall enjoyment! 😊

Had a fantastic group trip with friends! Spent our days visiting a mini water park and cooling off on a hot day, perfect after all the swimming. The room was well decorated and the beds super comfy. The staff were friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home.
We had a bit of a wait for breakfast, and the continental options were limited. It would be nice to see a wider selection, especially on busy days when the place is full.
