The White Horse

Arrived just after 2 PM. Whole staff with teenagers and old landlady sat playing on their phones. Checked in and shown to our rooms by a bargirl. Room is ridiculous, hair dryer out of 1970, wet room smelt of mould. Later did we learn that staff stay right next door. Proceeded to book dinner. My partners lasagne was good awful but my ham egg and chips were edible, surprising really considering that's the least that takes cooking. After all this I noticed a weird looking skinny man. I later found out he was a bar member who was one at the start playing his phone. My partner found him very uncomfortable from his weird pre teen stare to the look that has never had a conversation with a woman. Wholly uncomfortable. Later that evening, a table to middle aged regulars were loudly proclaiming their Iran allyship. I decided because rightly we are in Great Britain to encourage Education and for them to look at history. I was then told by someone that their dad came here in 1970 and I proceeded to say I don't care. Not nastily but the same way he does not care my family came in the 1820s. It is not a competition. We were then told we were not welcome to drink anymore because of what we said and the regulars we offended. Avoid. Be on the right side of our country. Not traitors. The place is dying and it deserves to. Weird staff living at WORK! AVOID! Don't go if you love your country or appreciate you wife's right to not being leered at. We did not end up staying and left early. We will fight for our money back. Awful premises with even awful staff. Is in it's dying phase. Weird young man, rat-ish beware taking your partner there she will feel uncomfortable. Bingo was on but no one knew what they were doing. Staff stay on premises. I've read some old reviews and it seems consistent. Landlady don't know what's happening (wholly understandable considering) and little kids running the place. Beware. The place should die.

We went for Sunday lunch. Was delighted to see lamb on the menu. The pub was very clean, staff friendly and helpful. I nice little restaurant in a traditionally built pub. The food was excellent, proper homemade. The roast was like eating at home, nicely finished off with desserts.

The staff were excellent; parking was no problem, and the shower was good, but I found the mattress to be very uncomfortable - I could feel every spring.
