This is a proper country pub with beautifully clean and well appoiinted guest rooms. We were going to a wedding party at nearby Ellingham Hall and used this as our base. We were welcomed on arrival, and on staggering back in late in the evening enjoyed a drink with the owners. The breakfast was delicious and the whole experience was... More

A group of 11 ladies celebrating a hen do over the weekend descended upon the Pack Horse Inn for a night in the local pub. We were welcomed by Stephen and his wife who were very accommodating for a group of ladies. We had a great evening spent here and all said we would love to visit again. Thanks for... More

I, along with my partner, visited the pack horse in for an evening meal. I have to say the waiting staff that served our food (dark haired girl) seemed uninterested and rude. However the food was spot on; presentation of food was great and it tasted as good as it looked. Recommended.

I have phoned and visited to try to book for next year, left my phone number countless times and asked for them to call me, and nobody has bothered to phone me back. I have asked family members to call and see if they can speak to the owners - but they`re never there. We have booked elsewhere.

We booked the pack horse inn as we we're at a wedding at the near by Doxford hall. Having read reviews I am pleased to say the Pack horse exceeded our expectations. The only downside was upon arrival the pub was closed and we had to look for someone to tell us where to go. A sign for guests would... More
