The Anvil is very well located for nearby towns and attractions Food was great but menu choices limited.6 Enjoyed our stay overall. However decor in accommodation area was tired. Staff were polite but not overly engaging (or particularly friendly).

We enjoyed our two night stay in this delightful, characterful inn. Our room was very clean and the bed most comfortable. Staff were charming and helpful. Breakfast choices were excellent and well prepared. Our evening meal was OK: we were disappointed with the duck bao bun starter- too little filling, and could have done with a dipping sauce. However my husband’s chicken and ham pie was very tasty and the chilli chicken curry was very pleasant. All in all good value and recommended for a few nights stay. We would go again.

Stayed 1 night

A cosy historic Inn with very comfy beds and excellent food in the restaurant - we enjoyed lunch; dinner and our breakfast (that was included). It was great to see so many people enjoying meals there on a Monday night, so clearly popular with locals. The staff were warm and friendly. There is one accessible room on the ground floor but all others were on the first floor which is accessed by a short but steep (turning)nflight of stairs......my 92 yr old mum struggled up and down & was quite breathless from the exersion. If you are over 5ft 6 you'll need to lower your head along the corridor but it's consitant with an 18 Century Inn and all rooms are of normal height. Our beds (2 single) were very comfy & the room was quiet- even with the window open for fresh air. A shelf in the bathroom would have helped with a place for toiletries......other than that, if was a very enjoyable stay and I would recommend to all who can manage stairs comfortably.
