The most wonderful country pub with a great mix of locals and guests. Good traditional ales well kept and charming attentive bar maids and staff. The room was pleasant and a cafetière with real coffee and quality biscuits was a bonus but the absence of a shower screen made the hand held bath shower awkward. Aparently some rooms have a... More

We stayed in Room 3 which was lovely. The decor is modern and the facilities fairly new. The welcome on arrival was warm and courteous and the service that we experienced was the same until we checked out, when we were not asked if we enjoyed our stay or invited to come back, which seemed rather odd. The only niggles... More

We ate here - so could only assume that the rooms are good. Sunday Roast is easy to get right but this one dissapointed. Gristly lamb and yucky 'chemical' gravy. Yorkshire pud soggy. Vegetables well cooked though. Rather a grim experience for the price charged. More

I stayed here for 2 nights recently as a random last minute mini break on my own...what a lovely old English pub! The pub itself has such character, and is actually quite big once you get inside; with a great mix of locals and people visiting from further afield. I only tried the bar snacks which were all really generous... More

We've just returned from a 3-night stay at the Carpenters Arms - we happened across it when looking for somewhere to eat in the area when we were holidaying in Bath and were so impressed that we've been back twice since to stay. It's an enchanting, relaxed and quaint pub with log fires in the winter, flowers around the garden... More

We stayed here with all of out friends whilst attending a wedding down the road. The rooms were really nice, clean and spacious, and it the place is deceivingly large. The pub was very cosy and the breakfast was spot on. We came in late (around 2am) from the wedding and it was no problem getting in. Overall, a really... More

A lovely, quiet pub with rooms. Lots of locals and visitors which was a nice mix, excellent food and friendly staff. Our double room was beautifully furnished and had some thoughtful touches. Cosy bathroom too. Only thing that stops me giving this an 'excellent' rating is that my very elderly mother was in a room across the landing which was... More

A bit off the beaten track, but worth finding. We were taken there for an anniversary lunch by Mother in Law. The pertions were generous (too generous for M I L, who is in her 80s). The quality was excellent; my wife didn't like the crushed potato, but I did, the soup was soup, the cod was perfect, the lamb... More

Visitied this lovely pub/small hotel on the recommendation of the AA's Good Pub Guide and it wasn't wrong ! Very clean and tidy. Gents loos were immaculate. Nice atmosphere. No piped music. Plenty of small nooks and crannies for a quiet pint or cosy chat with a loved one? Lots of large sofas too. Very welcoming. Had a couple of... More
