Had a great overnight stay with great food, room was lovely with complementary teas, coffee machine and hot chocolate, there is a basket of nice snacks left out but before diving in like we did these are chargeable.. We had a great meal in the restaurant and the wine was also great, slept really well and the breakfast next morning was fantastic, overall couldn't fault our stay at all, we are local and it was a really nice night away, we will 100% return...

We had a lovely night in this lovely village pub. The room was spacious, clean and had a lovely welcome pack of snacks and a Nespresso machine. The pub was busy which was great to see. The restaurant was busy too. Our food was delicious. Very tasty and reasonably priced. We had breakfast included which was delicious. A table of cereals, pastries, toast etc and a menu to order cooked options. A fantastic outdoor area. Large and very pretty with inviting looking BBQs for better weather! We would definitely return.

Stayed two nights. Room very quiet and more than adequate with some nice details. Breakfast good, among best in pub-hotel class, simple poached egg and bacon perfectly executed. Dinner: calves' liver nicely done, trout OK but not best in class, plenty of vegetables on offer. Real ales, decent wine list (Nyetimber by the glass, nice!). Senior waiter floated about in a somewhat disconnected way (could have sold me more drinks if he had made himself available or asked before turning away!), but younger waitresses more alert. Manager/landlady Ruthie Bowers very warm and charming, works hard and takes trouble.

The accommodations are very nice. Hotel is small- just nine rooms. Our room was updated and very clean. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Bed linens appeared new as did towels. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The shower was hit and miss with water flow stopping in the middle of the shower on two separate mornings. We reported it and were told there is a problem with the pump. Water was plenty hot when it flowed. Despite the shower challenge, we would stay here again. It’s centrally located for travelers visiting the significant castles and manor houses in Kent. We found other meal options. The restaurant seems to be short staffed so service was very slow. At breakfast there was one person to handle breakfast service and hotel check out. She did everything she could to accommodate us but was just one person with no back up.

Came out for dinner with an old friend of mine. Experience was absolutely superb from start to finish. From the greeting at the front door to when we left. Food, wine and cocktails were amazing. Thank you to the whole team for a wonderful evening

Nice quiet, clean room with all amenities. Food in the bar/restaurant was decent and not too pricy. Need to make sure tables are cleaned straight away, we had to ask before sitting down. Breakfast for £15 is OTT. i don't need a cooked breakfast midweek.

A very well presented room with coffee, tea and an honesty bar in the room, with good facilities provided and a comfy bed and pillows. Unfortunately for me the room was far too hot for my liking, the bath had a constant dripping tap and there were a lot of loud creaking floorboards. The staff were very accommodating and helpful but sadly we had to bring to the managers attention when paying for breakfast ( as a group of 10 and 5 of us were bed and breakfast guests the others joined us) were charged effectively twice for breakfast. This was quickly remedied by the manager, but an unnecessary mistake. I would stay here again as overall a pleasant stay thank you.
