The room was quiet and spotlessly clean, and had all the necessary amenities . Parking was easy and plentiful. The food at dinner and breakfast was hot, tasy and cooked-to-order. The only downside was the mattress which was obviously well worn and caused me to roll to the edge of the bed. To his credit the manager/ receptionist was shocked when I told him and said he would report it immediately. If guests don't report it, then management can't be blamed as it isnt visible when making up the bed.

i booked a deluxe king room, the room was very spacious although no window which made me feel a bit anxious, 2 skylight windows in roof, would of been nicer to have a couch or couple of comfortable chairs to relax on rather than having to sit on the bed, only a small area for hanging clothes and no drawers for items like tshirts and underwear..the mattress was springs so where others have sat it didnt make the best to sleep on! ..a big plant in the corner of the room took up a lot of space and in need of a good dust! ..there was an ironing board and iron and the bathroom was lovely with complimentaryshower gel soap and body cream..so much potential for the room..but overall ok. breakfast was ok, first day i had a cooked breakfast, it wasnt hot, just warm so a bit disappointing, 2nd day there was only us and another couple for breakfast and there was nothing out to help yourself to, cereal, yoghurt, coffee etc, so felt a bit restricted in choice.

overall a lovely pub, staff lovely good parking and lots of history to it.

This place is excellent and very well appointed for its moderately low price. The room was spacious and clean and the restaurant was very good. It served my needs for a stopover in the area

BUT BUT BUT

There is a kitchen fan which was on all night and made a TERRIBLE HUMMING NOISE. I asked about this and the owner seemed to say no-one had mentioned it before but looking at reviews I see they have. This was only solved by me sleeping in a small bed on the corridor side. This must be fixed please.

Lovely feeling in the inn and room, nicely decorated and first impression was of how inviting it looked, but this changed somewhat when we spent more time in the room.

The lack of curtains and ill fitting blinds meant we were woken up with the direct sunlight every morning which really impacted our stay.

There were also numerous stains on the furniture and carpets, which while I’m sure they were cleaned were very visible.

The significant limescale build up on the shower head made the shower unappealing, while functional.

The people and service were lovely though!

Nice pub but the rooms need a bit of work. The blinds are terrible so you are kept awake by the outside lights and then woken up by the sun in the morning. The mattress was also terrible.

Nice breakfast and the pub is lovely.

We generally had a good stay at The Blue Boar. It is an attractive building in a lovely, quiet location. The room was clean and good and the food in the evening was well cooked. Breakfast was a bit limited, with no fresh fruits, but was otherwise OK. Our only criticism was that our ( premier!!) room was above the kitchen and we were a bit disturbed by two loud humming noises from there overnight, one of which was constant and the other intermittent. Other rooms, in different places, probably wouldn't have been affected.
