    Lovely Sunday lunch with our family. The staff and the service was great. Sadly the beef wasn’t great (over done and tough with lots of gristle) and the yorkshire puds were a little crispy and airy but perhaps they were a GF recipe (which would explain the texture). The salted caramel tart pudding was exceptional. A really enjoyable lunch - thank you The Inn team!

    Lovely visit during a special Burns night - the team were obviously stretched and apologised for a slower than average service. Food was wonderful and we’ll definitely be back.

    My sunday roast arrived cold, when I informed the staff they were quick to rectify it by heating it up. Nice food, good service and great ambience.

    I have been here twice in as many months as the food is superb, the portions are excellent and the friendliness and efficiency of the staff is second to none. Nothing is ever a problem for them and they go over and above to meet your needs. I highly recommend that people who haven’t yet visited to do so as you won’t be disappointed. 10/10
