Staff were hard working, polite, friendly and helpful but the hot water tap in the bathroom didn't work and the shower was practically cold even on a warm setting and didn't produce much water. On arriving back for the second night, our room hadn't been made up. The beds were unmade and the litter bin hadn't been emptied although before... More

We had dinner at the good intent on a trip to petersfield as it had been recommended by a friend. Nice little pub in a nice little market town, we didn't expect the quality of the food to be so high! The care and attention taken by the chef was clearly visible in both dishes, stunning flavours with creative presentation... More

We were in Petersfield looking at some local properties with a view to moving there. We decided to stay the night and found this lovely old pub, with accommodation, and safe parking for the car. We were welcome from the moment we arrived. The food was excellent and the room was great - not huge, but clean and functional. The... More

The rooms are very spacious considering the age of the building and have ensuite bathrooms and you have the option of tea and coffee in your room while catching something on TV. The pub downstairs has a fantastic atmosphere and both the... More

Recently had dinner in this lovely looking old pub. The experience was disappointing. The food was poor, and the mash and cabbage looked like reheated left overs. Will not return.
