1.0“Closed !”
+Nothing
−It was closed. No information from Booking. Com. It had been closed for some time yet still advertising. That would be fraud!

2.0“Do not stay in this place!”
+There was not a lot to like. The family room and bathroom were a good size and well decorated. The shower was hot and the sound of the river outside was lovely.
−The pub was not as advertised on it's website. It had no bar or dining room and no customers apart from us. There was one staff member, Paul, the new owner who was rude. It was difficult to get off to a good start due to his morose behaviour. It was made unpleasant when a misunderstanding with the booking could have been handled courteously. He told us to make our own beds as it was "women's work", which is funny to think of afterwards. He was unable to use his nice coffee machine and gave me instant coffee instead. The advertised warming fire place in our room was just a hole in the wall. I could go on..... just don't book this place, it could have spoiled our holiday if we had let it. We laughed at it instead and made the best of our time together as a family.

1.0“I want our money back !!! Don’t stay here”
+Nothing as it is falsely advertised on your site , signs have been taken down , no access to the pub / restaurant as it is empty inside. Looks derelict
−Falsely advertised, No bar , No restaurant, just an empty building and has been like this for the last 4 months or so having spoken with residents in the area, no carpets in the property or TV , freezing cold , looks derelict.

9.0“Wonderful stay and great host”
+Loved our stay at The Leaping Salmon. Our host was super friendly and welcoming. The restaurant wasn't open at the time due to some refurbishments being done, but otherwise it had everything we needed. Really beautiful location. Tawny owl roosting outside, which was dreamy.
−Restaurant wasn't open, cappuccino machine wasn't available (I'm a coffee snob, so don't mind me). But those were really minor things and really didn't affect us. There are no TVs in the rooms - also minor for us, but worth mentioning if you're planning on chilling out to a movie.

5.0“Not great, but hopefully only the ownership transition phase!”
+The location was amazing! The pub looked fabulous too - but it was in between owners and not fully open. Our room was big and well decorated and had a lovely big bathroom. We were pleased the new owner honoured our booking - especially as he hadn't been passed our payment which had already gone to the old owners!
−The new owner had only recently taken over and it was all a bit disorganised. Only the double bed was made up, not the two single beds, so we had to ask for the bedding for our children, which was left in a bin liner outside the back door of the pub when we got back from going out for dinner. The restaurant wasn't open yet, which we were warned about but we were told we could get breakfast but that never materialised either, so we had to go out for breakfast which was annoying as we had paid to have it included. The owner wasn't on site and there was no mobile number so when we arrived no one was there to greet us with a key or anything. We had to wait outside for half an hour when he luckily turned up. We met the new chef who sounded like he knew what he was doing, so hopefully one day this pub will become a great destination once again!
