The family, all ten of us, stayed here overnight and dined in the restaurant to celebrate our Golden Wedding. The accommodation was excellent, very comfortable beds and very quiet. The meal in the Conservatory was enjoyed by all the family young and not so young, the food was up to its usual standard, very, very good. The restaurant was very... More

We stayed here for 1 night, and from when we arrived we where impressed, the location is ideal only a short drive from the main roads, but far enough out to feel like your in the middle of nowhere. Check in was easy with friendly helpful staff, advised us on where was best to walk the dog. We decided to... More

My husband and I brought his sister and family (7 of us in total) to eat here at the end of May, and they did us proud! We've been here a few times before, so knew what to expect, but the meal surpassed our hopes - the menu is better than ever. Everyone enjoyed their meal and some of us... More

We really enjoyed our three day stay. The large pub with a good restaurant is in a great position with ample parking and annexes to suit singles and families alike. WiFi is fiddly at first but fine. The rooms are small but clean and adequate. The pub itself has a good varied menu with attention to detail and piping hot... More

We stayed here at Easter on a trip with my daughter son in law and grandson, bringing them down to Kent where i grew up. We were very happy with the accommodation, and the staff could not have been more obliging and friendly, nothing was to much trouble. The restaurant and staff, again were excellent with a large selection of... More

Just stayed here for 1 night. Perfection. Fresh cooked to order breakfast, room immaculate, clean, very comfortable, beautifully positioned. All this for a real value for money price. Lively friendly welcome. Beautiful walks on the doorstep. They even reserved a table for us in the wonderful olde worlde pub for the evening of our arrival. Got to go back. What... More

My daughter organised my birthday party in the new Pilgrim Suite at the Black Inn and it exceeded my expectations. We were brilliantly looked after by the staff particularly Ewan , Kimberly and Claire who helped make the evening run like clockwork. Kimberley helped my daughter organise and decorate the room and plan all those extra details that can help... More

I spent a weekend here in the middle of a two-week business trip. It offered a welcome country respite for a traveler weary of travel and cities. The rooms are really attached chalets, a little like a motel, but with a bit of grass out front instead of cars. The rooms are a little on the basic side, but are... More
