We parked up and were greeted by a very drunken lady vomiting outside ; I thought it might have been a fun pub unfortunately not , she was the only patron at the time ( 3pm Saturday afternoon) .lovely setting ,very friendly bar staff. Checked us into our annex room ( we are a mid- aged couple , no pets,, no trouble and definitely not a Karen !! ) .it was fine , very basic London style decor was dated and well worn but the mattress looked like it was from the 70s ( brown with orange & white huge flowers ) and a mattress topper that looks like its been also slept on since 1970 - the fitted sheet didnt fit and looked like we had a ryvita beneath us . There was a microwave and toaster in the room as well as a fridge ( good points ; Id brought some booze to put in the fridge- I wish Id brought food !) quite worrying there was an adjoining room door - which wasnt locked on either side -there was a dirty looking single mattress in the middle to deter you from entering the adjoining room !! Free Wi-Fi , two codes in the room ; neither worked ! Looking outside the property there was a good extensive all day menu and ask for the days specials , however we were told that food was served from about 5:30 -8pm - we asked about the specials when we went to order food at 6pm and we were instructed to look at the badly spelt board outside ( the one that said ask about the specials ! ) .I ordered a home made pie with chips & veg but specified no carrots as Im allergic when my meal arrived , of course , it had carrots but the landlord actually said you asked for no carrots didnt you well just push them to one side !The landlord was very rude ; albeit arrogant. When the landlords son collected my plate he asked what was wrong as there was food left , I said it was asked for no carrots , he just laughed and said such a shame , my Dad is deaf perhaps he didnt hear!
