We stayed at the Fox Inn for two nights whilst visiting some friends in the area. The staff were all very friendly and we were shown to our room. Our room was very clean and well maintained. The included continental breakfast provided in the room was generous considering the rate. We ate in the pub on the first night and... More

I had the pleasure of staying at the Fox for over 2 years through 2010 and 2011. I've yet to find better! Wonderful people, excellent food, fabulous rooms, friendly locals and extremely well equipped rooms. Many expensive hotel chains could learn a thing or two from Linda and her boys!

My husband and I stayed at The Fox for one night, (25/3/13) before attending a funeral the following day. We found the people hospitable, and very professional. Our room was lovely and warm in spite of the bitterly cold weather. It had everything you could need for an overnight stay and was very comfortable. We were joined by a couple... More

We had a great day at the Fox Inn today. We got a warm welcome and the staff offered a quick, flexible and family friendly service. We made a large order, which we made quite complicated for the poor waitress, but the staff were eager to please and had no problem serving the food quickly, at the same time and... More

We have recently returned from a very enjoyable pub lunch at The Fox Inn. We were a reasonably large party, all with children, and were made to feel extremely welcome. They provided high chairs where necessary and offered plenty of space for the children to have some freedom. The lunch menu had excellent variety, with your traditional hot pub meals... More

Had a great evening celebrating Burns Night in The Fox Inn. Huge four course meal including a wee dram of course and very good value at £28.50. Fantastic to have five pipers and a drummer playing all evening and the traditional toasting of the haggis. Well done and many thanks! Michael and Stephanie.

We have just returned from a New Years Day lunch at the Fox Inn and we were very disappointed. The food was very ordinary and uninspiring.

First of all, let me thank you for posting your review, I am very disappointed also that this was your experience. The Fox Inn is a 18th century pub, which does mean that we have more than our fair share of spiders and their cobwebs. The pub is cleaned thouroughly every day so I am sorry that you found the...

I had my reservations when my sister suggested staying at a pub for her wedding, however what a lovely surprise the Fox Inn was. The rooms are modern and clean and set out in a small courtyard, where most of our family stayed for the evening. Great value for money and would definitely recommend to others.
