I was made feel very welcome when I arrived by the nice young lady behind the bar. My room was nice and clean and the bed was very comfortable and I had a great nights sleep. The carpark is adjoining to the hotel and that's a great plus for me. In the morning I had a lovely cooked breakfast made from really good ingredients by the hotel owner and it was nice to have a good conversation with him. I will definitely book a room when I am back down next time.

I haven't anything negative to say about my stay and nothing to complain about.

Great location (lovely sleepy village but also only 10 minutes from Cadwell Park), friendly staff, great fry up. While the twin room was small (as stated in the description, so not a surprise) the beds were comfortable and there was a good supply of tea, coffee and biscuits. Overall good value for money for the price.

Shower and cubicle were functional but a bit "tired". A wardrobe would have been useful (one wasn't present as there wasn't room for one) but perhaps a slimline shelving/bookcase style unit against the wall at the foot of the bed by the door may be possible to fit for putting clothes on.

Loved everything about this place the staff were friendly and so was the owner the good is very nice and the owner makes a fantastic breakfast so we'll worth setting off later for 1, the pub is dog friendly so you do get some fury friends coming to say hello and as a dog person I loved this. I will be stopping again

Nothing loved my stay

The staff here were lovely, this is a small pub / Inn in a small village in a rural area, yet they didn't mind me rolling in and checking in at 10.30pm after meeting a client in a neighbouring town. Offered me a drink from the bar on entry despite looking like they were about to close up. Breakfast was great - I was offered a full English as standard, but I was still full from a big meal the night before, so the host made me egg on toast and charged me less than the usual breakfast rate. They had a big jug of filter coffee on the go which was perfect as I need at least two cups in the morning. They also had orange juice, cereals etc. My room was perfectly adequate for the very reasonable price I paid.

Friendly, welcoming, and accommodating staff who let me check in early and kept checking I was okay (especially nice as I was a solo traveller). Fantastic location in a historic, beautiful inn. References to Tennyson and Johnson throughout. Infrequent but good bus service from Louth and a 30 minute walk to Somersby, Tennyson's home hamlet. Good food and atmosphere. Very comfortable and clean room.

Bad smell in the upstairs corridor.

It was a friendly inn, lots of character and everyone was friendly. Got talking to locals and guests. If you want a boutique style room this is not for you. Best comfy bed I have slept in. Didn’t have breakfast but it smelt good.

An old inn with plenty of character and brilliant staff. A bit old on the carpets in the corridor but that didn’t effect us.

I had cycled from Norfolk so I was very tired. I can't remember a lot other than the tea was strong, the food was hearty, the landlord was jolly, the beer tasted good, I still had my wallet, watch and bike in the morning. Perfect example of a traditional English Inn, I imagine that little has changed since the time of Dr Johnson who visited all those years ago.

Room could have been a bit cleaner but they had staff absence that weekend so it was not business as usual.

Very flexible - great, charismatic landlord with the loudest laugh in Lincolnshire. SILENT at night, except for noisy Tawny Owl! (lovely) Proper countryside location.

Pleasantly scruffy round the edges

Very friendly sociable staff. Richard the owner is great, full of local info and ready for a chinwag. Location is brilliant for car owners - in the Lincolnshire countryside, away from built-up areas. Traditional pub, with log fires and stoves and original deco. Amazing prices and good food. Bateman's bitter on tap. Great walks right outside your door.

This pub is over 500 years old, the atmosphere is indescribable, I felt like I was in the frame of the movie, wooden beams experienced by time that saw so many wonderful moments, the smell of the fireplace and soft light soothing my soul, the roosters woke me up in the morning which only reminded me me my childhood. A real Pole in a real English pub.
