The Marlborough

Booked 3 rooms here for 2 nights and we weren't disappointed. Staff were so friendly and made us feel welcome straight away. The landlord was really friendly and very funny. Zoe, the landlady worked so hard, coming in at 8am and not leaving until gone 11.30 pm. Always smiling and full of conversation. We had a meal there on the 2nd night, food was so good. I had crispy Chilli beef to start. I honestly can't recommend this enough! My sister in law and I wanted to finish the night with a cocktail. Luke, the barman suggested martini expresso. Try this cocktail! Gorgeous!! Luke was very chatty, and made such an effort to make our stay enjoyable. Lots of the staff there seem to be long term friends, and it really shows through the atmosphere there, warm, welcoming, entertaining. I stayed in the Library room, very spacious and clean. It is directly above the bar, so don't expect silence! I personally love the noise of people downstairs chit chatting away. There were 2 other staff I remember talking with, Billy, who was a pleasure to talk with, and I'm afraid I don't know the other guys name, but he booked us in, I think he may have cooked too. I just want to say a big thank you to all the staff for making our weekend such a pleasurable one x and not forgetting their furbabies! 2 beautiful chocolate labs!

I remember staying here more than once when it was The Sun Inn. Happy memories. And I have been back since upgrade and name change. Dropped in today for a swift pint, out of the RAIN and only had time for a Starter. Delicious, tasty. Not cheap here anymore, but will save up and come back for a treat. Service is excellent.

Having stayed, eaten and drink here several times I have only had excellent experiences every time. A very friendly, helpful and welcoming team are always very accommodating. The rooms are above average for similar establishments in the area and very comfortable. Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5

Went with a large group. The food was ok, and I had fish and chips. The batter was a bit thick and stodgy. For pudding, I chose Eton Mess, which consisted of a bit of meringue a few chopped up strawberries and a bit of cream, and at £8, I was expecting something a little more. On the plus side the staff were very nice and helpful service was quick. Service: 4 Location: 3
