We arrived at around 5.30pm for a drink and hopefully an early meal.The place was quiet but although they were fully booked later, the staff said they could do an early table for two.

We were recommended by a friend who said the food is excellent and they were right. We had specials chicken and duck and every mouthful was a delight. They even adopted the meal to our exact tastes which we thought was amazing. Great service all round and we will be coming back again.

We stayed in the hotel for one night with dinner and breakfast, and had a great time.

The team at The Talbot saved us a table, and we had some good British fare and a bottle... More

We were lucky enough to book 6 rooms soon after the Talbot opened for a group of mates and had a truly memorable weekend ...... wonderful in pretty much every way.

Even down to there being hair straighteners in addition to a hair dryer,which... More

We stayed for one night in April and loved it. Great hospitality, great dining - packed on a Thursday evening, great decor and fantastic room (Room One). Excellent service, Looking forward to another visit.

Daniel was great, thank you, made us feel very welcome and the other members of staff (sorry we can't remember your names) but special mention to the bar man who was also on breakfast. Food was great, the chocolate mouse was... More

The rooms are well finished with very comfortable beds. We ate in the restaurant and the Grill room and both were excellent. The staff are welcoming and helpful. The food was delicious and a really nice menu to choose from. The breakfast menu is also extensive and tasty. Cannot find fault and heartily recommend the whole experience.
