Arrived after lots of driving after an emotional funeral. A very warm welcome by the two staff, including one taking our case upstairs for my wife, as I am disabled. We enjoyed a pint of real ale and glass of rose as we ordered food. Very fresh food: home-made cauliflower soup followed by pasta which we asked to be spiced up! It was. The chef came and checked that we were happy. Another glass of rose for my wife and a lovely glass of red for myself. The staff were excellent with us and clearly they were also excellent with the punters in the bar. The atmosphere was one of folk having fun, talking and listening to each other, that sense of vibrancy one finds in an English country pub. The room was absolutely fine, a little rustic, but perfectly clean, lovely hot shower and we slept well. We enjoyed hearing the clock chiming in the village. We were keen to get on the road back to Edinburgh the next morning so arrived early for breakfast at 07.40 and we were delighted that the same chef helped us. The bowl of fruit, fresh coffee and tea, followed by the cooked breakfast were delicious and set us up for the day. We did not eat again until supper back home in Edinburgh! We enjoyed talking to the chef and clearly, he has huge experience and expertise. To conclude, the manner of each one of the three staff who looked after us was first-rate. We thought the food was first-rate. It cannot be easy running places like this. We need to support them. I hope others do. I used to work in the business of customer care and it is mighty difficult looking after people. Well done to the owner and all the staff!
