“Comfortable and hospitable”
+Modern and close to the river

“A very comfortable and modern experience in a lovely old pub.”
+The dukes head is in a lovely location, peaceful village with plenty of outside seating.
−The only thing I would say is with the continental breakfast, the refill of croissant, cereals and milk as they were being used by the guests, meant there was not enough on offer, as it was not being replaced quickly enough for the guests coming in a bit later.

“Would not stay here again”
+Good Shower-overall the room was clean and well decorated as was the rest of the pub
−Very small room, no light where the desk was. No food available not mentioned on website or on booking.com until i telephoned to enquire about the menu. As we checked in we were informed the bar would close at 8pm. Breakfast was very poor no ham only salami -tinned fruit- watermelon and some pastries and cereal.

“Comfortable hotel and extreamly dog friendly.”
+It is very close to Fox & Pheasant pub, has they do not have a restaurant here. Very dog friendly hotel.
−No mention that the breakfast is continental when booking and also no mention of additional cost of £15 for dogs. Both of the above were not mentioned until receiving a phone call once the cancellation taste and time had passed, even though I sent message upon booking with no responses.
