Lovely country pub, with easily accessible rooms with motel-style parking. Only negative with our room (7) was the rain shower with a silly design, no chance of a shower without getting your hair wet - not always ideal for ladies! But nice with a walk-in shower! The cooked breakfast was great.

Weekend stay

Have stayed a few times over the years, the room was nice, but could do with a make over, and the shower needs something doing with it, it isn't a walk in shower, more like a climb in. Food in the restaurant was delicious, even though there wasn't a big choice, it was all delicious, the chef even made fresh apple sauce for one of the party. Hopefully next time we stay, we will see a difference min the room

New owners taken over don't be fooled by reviews!

Stay many places always about for business. Booked this short notice on the reviews being 8.5. I didn't experience 8.5 service! On arrival place fully locked up, sign on the door, list of names, room numbers and keys in each door. Help yourself attitude to the letter and list. I had room 7. Cleanish but a strong damp musty smell. Damp in the walls I suspect, carpet rotting or breaking up. Bit run down in places generally. I paid extra £10 a morning for breakfast. No where near worth the money, terrible service at breakfast as well. Evening meal is ok but not much choice, expect to have something with chips! Bed was comfortable seemed clean and the location means it's quiet here. Those being the main bonus to this stay. Free parking free WiFi also a bonus. When I mentioned my experience I was told they've just been taken over. All prior reviews are for the previous owners / business operator. So beaware things could get better or be just as bad. Look at my photos as proof

First time in the area, what a pleasant surprise. Convenient room, a little tired around the edges but didn't detract from the stay. Breakfast very tasty. Certainly on the list of places to explore further.

Not recommended if you are travelling on business

The room was cold and somewhat dated. Could not run a full bath as not enough hot water, no shower to use as an alternative. I was a solo traveller in a double room so no way could two people have had a bath. WiFi was virtually non existent and no phone signal at all so a poor location if you are on business. On a positive the staff were grand the breakfast was okay

Comfortable and good value

We stayed at Queen's Head for a weekend and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The family room was clean and comfortable. Although it is a bit dated, it was cosy and warm. The staff were nice, and breakfast was also very good.

Shabby, in need of investment and t.l.c.

Fairly basic accommodation in a lodge bedroom en suite. The bedroom felt slightly damp and it and the bathroom were a little tired. The bathroom would have benefited from a deep clean and was dated. Parking was immediately outside the room. Breakfast was fine, but lacked items such as muesli and fresh fruit. The staff were friendly and helpful. Overall the place needs some investment and modernisation. We wiould not be keen to repeat the experience!

Pub great. Hotel is a no go!

Was only there for the night. No one on reception, people started to queue so had to go to the bar (which is lovely) No food though. (Bank holiday Sunday/busy hotel/quiet village) The room was mouldy, bathroom falling to bits. Hardly anywhere to charge your phone. I think they need to knock the hotel idea on the head and stick to being a great pub.

A nice overnight stay

Nice overnight stay - nice bar and restaurant. Motel type of accommodation which is outside of the main building . Very quiet even being opposite a patio drinking area . The Family Room was nice but a little damp and musky smell but other than that it was nice .
