Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We called into The Fleece for some food whilst visiting friends and had a really great experience. Alex saw to it that we were very well looked after and her friendly and hospitable nature made the evening one to remember. She's a credit to the place! The food and atmosphere was awesome.

The Fleece Inn surpassed all expectations, not that we had much of an idea as to what to expect. A lovely, warm and engaging atmosphere - food was wonderful, staff were very friendly and attentive....extremely happy to recommend this quaint and very special pub. It appears they have a lot of activities, (live music, dancing etc) which obviously brings the community together - would love to return and experience some of these traditional events.

Out for lunch. Excellent old fashioned pub with lovelly staff. Nice beer and great menu. Both of us went for the drive age beef longhorn pie with veg and chips and gravy. The best pie that my wife and I have ever had. Pastry that melts with the gravy. Beef so tender and also extra gravy provided. Superb taste..love to know what the herbs were? Great menu but too full for a pudding but did share pigs in blankets in honey and mustard sauce as a pre meal nibble.the pie was totally enclosed in pastry-Superb. Fantastic, old and quirky pub and great, friendly staff!

Came for a drink to The Fleece as NT members . Made to feel very unwelcome by a member of staff as we we were not eating . Table in front of us marked as being reserved for 15.30 . Not offered to us . Asked if we could sit at a table that was just vacated at 14. 50 Only to be told that the table was booked from 1500 . Sat outside and really enjoyed it . Had a window that looked on to the seat that we we wanted to sit at for a drink that was supposedly booked and it was still empty at 15.30 when we left . Very disappointed .

Wonderful place. Perfect village pub. Beams, open fires, flagstone floors, ticking grandfather clocks (all showing different times, of course). I was half expecting Dick Turpin to walk in at any moment and warm his muddy boots by the fire. Will be back in Summer and stay two nights. Only (slight) minus is the shower in Master's Chamber. Difficult to adjust and keeps going from hot to FREEZING cold. Otherwise 5-Stars all round. Good beer, great food, nice friendly staff, and the double bed was warm and comfortable. A real tonic.

Possibly - probably - well definitely the best pub on the planet! Ticks every box. Historic? - 600 years old, history galore, witches circles on the floor, witches marks on the doors. Atmospheric? - Not half. Food ? - Excellent. Beer? - Ditto. Service? - Friendly and efficient. Garden? - Lovely. Location? - Lovely village. Other stuff? - Loads of it. Folk club, comedy nights, asparagus festival, cider festival, morris dancing, ceilidh nights, a Nigel night (for men called Nigel only) and much more. There is something happening every week. We are so lucky to have this place nearby. Long may it prosper.

Very Historic pub - quite unique. Staff were great - on the ball and helpful. Food was really good for the price point. The pies are astonishing. As is the sticky toffee pudding. I didn’t have any expectations but really enjoyed the meal. Will be back.

Beautiful pub, great beer, fantastic food lovely accommodation and a rambling garden that contains at least two established apple trees. We stayed for a night, the room was excellent in a quirky sense and the breakfast was also good. Good service throughout the stay, including checkin, evening meal, breakfast and at the bar. Will visit again.
