    “We booked the Penny Farthing Inn for a family gathering to celebrate my mums 70th birthday.”

    It doesnt feel like its been set up as a rental property very long. The coffee machine, dishwasher and heating did not work. The pub was cold and didnt make for a comfortable place to gather as a family. There was no heating downstairs in the pub and just a small log burner that didn't get the space well at all. Some of the bedding had stains on and the place was not cleaned well. Dirty laundry was found in pne of the rooms and the floors were dirty so we had to all wear footwear downstairs in ...

    It doesnt feel like its been set up as a rental property very long. The coffee machine, dishwasher and heating did not work. The pub was cold and didnt make for a comfortable place to gather as a family. There was no heating downstairs in the pub and just a small log burner that didn't get the space well at all. Some of the bedding had stains on and the place was not cleaned well. Dirty laundry was found in pne of the rooms and the floors were dirty so we had to all wear footwear downstairs in the bar. The pool table and cinema rooms are nice additions and the outdoor beer garden with climbing frame was useful. Check out was at 10am which we felt was too early for such a large group to get out for, especially given there was only 1 tiny bathroom for most of the guests to use. 2 rooms had en suites in addition to this so the guests in the remaining 5 rooms had to share the main tiny bathroom. The taps in the toilets downstairs didn't work. The bedrooms , bathrooms and kitchen are tired and very basic. Not what we were expecting for nearly £3000 for a 2 night stay.
