I should start by saying that I have stayed in Surrey for 2 or 3 nights every week for the last 18 months and always pay up to a maximum of £70 but usually much less. There are a lot of good offers around the area and I have stayed in many different places. I only ever post on trip... More

The owners/staff provided a lovely warm welcome and excellent service. The bedroom was of a good standard and clean. The food was excellent - this place... More

We walked to this pub yesterday to be greeted by the landlady that doesn't have a clue on customer service. Arriving just after 3pm and waiting almost 5 minutes to be served at the bar. When there was no other customers waiting to be served . The landlady was too busy watching a horse race on the TV. We she... More

Having moved to within possible walking distance we were looking forward to visiting this pub with a view to wiling away a few hours on a Sunday afternoon. And its a strange one this, as there are many features that should make this place a must visit, however, overall it ends up being a bit of a let down. Firstly,... More

My Boy friend and I stayed at the plough in and couldn't fault it. After arriving late we didn't experience the bar food or atmosphere but went straight to our room which was simple, clean and comfortable. We were met the next morning by a very friendly chief who made us a full English breakfast. The standard of food was... More

The Plough Inn is a very pleasant country pub with a log fire, good beers and a very decent and hearty sausage and mash (+vegetables) on the menu. A smile from the young lady behind the bar would have been nice.
