The Greyhound is in a lovely quiet village with lovely staff and as a solo traveller I felt at ease. The accomodation is not modern but is clean and tidy and in keeping with the building. The room was spacious add had that I needed.

Lovely old pub with very attractive rooms. Beautiful area...exquisite village surrounded by wonderful countryside. My room was in need of some updating. We weren't shown to rooms on arrival but staff were friendly. My chicken dish was excellent.

Bad room, great food
Don’t ever write reviews but felt I had to here. Room felt very unclean and smelled horrible. This was a mixture of dog and damp from the mould that is all over the bathroom floor. Wifi was non existent. On the positive side the restaurant is lovely, the food was very good. The care of the room let’s the place down.

Off the beaten track but not remote
Lovely clean room in the stables across the car park from the inn. Brilliant friendly service, with decent meal choice and an excellent breakfast. Couldn't recommend this more.
