“Lovely quiet village location but sadly not so restful because of noise”
+Very nice big soft bed, good bedding, good towels, room temperature readily controllable, lovely location. Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Dinner main courses were excellent.
−Stairs and landing started dirty, and not cleaned during the 2 nights we stayed. Poor lighting in room. Noise from bar (music, talking) made the bedroom loud and not restful to be in until the bar had closed. No healthy breakfast foods available, just pastries and fatty/starchy bacon/sausage rolls. Pudding at dinner not good (unripe plum). Loud music downstairs from early in the morning, so not restful being there either. Impression was a of a place which had a lot of money spent on its fabric, done in a tasteful way, with a fairly good chef too, but with the perfectly-nice-in-themselves but perhaps rather young and inexperienced staff being left untrained (talking amongst themselves at dinner rather than being attentive to the table, being rather noisy, pop/rock music on even at breakfast etc) rather than being shown by management how to be ordinarily attentive to guests.

“Quintessential Escape to the Country”
+We stayed at The Chestnut Horse for my partner’s birthday and, overall, had such a lovely time. It’s one of those places that feels like a proper escape , a beautiful Grade I listed building, peaceful surroundings and a gorgeous footpath for country walks less than a minute away. The whole area is stunning, and the locals were so friendly too. A very refreshing change of pace from London! Our room was a great size and the bed was ridiculously comfortable. The food was exquisite. Genuinely. Even the pastries and coffees included with our stay were mind-blowingly good, and everything we ate tasted like 5-star quality. The drinks were excellent too (highly recommend the Mermaid Gin & Champagne cocktail). The staff really made the stay. Everyone was incredibly friendly and repeatedly went above and beyond for us. At one point they even opened the downstairs shop especially so we could stock up on snacks and drinks for the night! We were also given complimentary fizz and a lovely postcard to commemorate my partner’s birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch. A couple of things worth knowing if you're travelling with a little one: there were no cots available, and the stairs definitely
−My only real gripe was the cleanliness , it was noticeably dusty in places, which was a shame because otherwise the room was fantastic. Also, more as a heads up dinner isn't cheap , we spent around £80 for two pub meals, two drinks and a kids’ meal , but the quality was absolutely banging.

“Amazing staff, food and comfort with great value - only downside was noise from downstairs in the morning. Highly recomm”
+The staff were amazing, full of knowledge and great recommendations. The area was beautiful, the food was delicious (the crab and trout raviolo starter was incredible!) and the bed was beyond comfortable. Excellent value for money.
−You can hear downstairs so from 8am we could hear music which woke us up.

“Host and staff very professional, welcoming and ensured a wonderful stay. Quality of meals outstanding. Will look forwar”
+Impressive from start to finish. Although space in the room was limited, it was not of any importance for a nights stay. The bedroom was beautifully old and quirky. All facilities, toiletries of high quality purchases. The bed which filled the room gave a wonderful nights sleep. Top quality high bed and mattress, quilt and pillows to just drift off in, and a fabulous nights sleep.

+Lovely stay in this country pub. Staff were very friendly and the Manager Jamie went above and beyond, being a great asset to the team. Great Food too
−Parking could be a challenge, but this is a very popular place, to eat or just call in for a coffee and croissant and even has a farm shop. The Chestnut Horse is a great asset to this small village

“Lovely venue”
+Lovely venue in a beautiful village Stylish room which was comfortable, unfortunately very dusty and cold. Hairs all over the bathroom floor. Staff sorted out the heating eventually which was appreciated. The food was nice, good service. Cold tea served for breakfast. Disappointed with the breakfast choices. Overall a pleasant stay in a nice venue Thank you to the staff member who left the birthday message and wine, nice gesture
−Disappointing little things which could be improved to make this a 10/10
