Great pub with a good selection of well looked after beers. The team are always there with a warm welcome. The food is right up there with the best, would recommend and They have top local band nights.

Beer, food and song.. who could ask for more

When I visited, the vast majority of the customers were in the uncarpeted "public bar" area of the pub, watching the rugby on TV. I sat in the other part of the pub, which has carpet and framed reproductions of paintings of Henry VIII, the first Lord Howard of Effingham and Sir Douglas Haig himself. I liked the Tudor atmosphere, artfully created in modern style. I was served by a charming guy who quickly left, to be replaced by a barman in a tweed flat cap with a black keeper earring and tattoos. It would appear that stock levels behind the bar are a bit low at the moment. A delivery was expected in the near future. When the rugby finished, a customer inquired whether Sky TV might be put on. The barman replied that he didn't think the pub had Sky any more. The customer was rather put out, as notices outside the pub indicated that it had. I think it was the barman's lack of definitiveness on this subject that was particularly irritating. Newspapers are available for customers to read. Friday's Daily Mail was still lying in the basket, displaying its historic headline. The dartboard in the "public bar" was in busy use.  The large blackboard wall behind it is good for recording scores.

Rugby but no Sky

Although we live locally and have driven past many times we have visited for the first time.  We were warmly welcomed and had a nice chat to the new proprietor.  He is full of enthusiasm to build the pub backup and get locals to come in.   I'm glad we visited and will certainly go back again.  

Lovely friendly welcome

The rooms are comfortable.The bathroom clean and shower nice and hot.
The restaurant was closed in the evening for some reason but we found a decent pub meal nearby
However after pre ordering our breakfast the night before we came down at the allotted time to find the restaurant/pub looked and no signs of life.We knocked the door and rang the bell to no avail.After waiting 15 minutes we left.We were also told that breakfast started at 8 dispite the Hotel website stating it was in fact 7:30.This total lack of service is really unforgivable.Our company hopfully will peruse the management for a partial refund.
Disgracful

Bed but no Breakfast

Had a fantastic few nights here with a friend. The staff and locals were extremely welcoming and it felt like a home from home. Bedroom and facilities were ample, plenty of parking space and I have to give a shout out to the chef Joshua for going the extra mile and ensuring I had a yummy vegan breakfast. Would give five stars if a vegan option could be added to the menu 😉
Cannot fault it. Best few nights I've had in ages. Thank you. We will be back.

Perfect few nights

My boyfriend and I stayed for  night in Sir Douglas Haig. This a friendly and comfortable hotel, with a friendly and helpful staff. Very nice Fish and Chips for dinner and lovely Full English Breakie for Breakfast

Great

This is a traditional English pub. The bar has a good ambiance and friendly staff. Check in could not have been easier or friendlier.

There’s plenty of free parking on the premises. 

The room was very clean and comfortable, and the en-suite bathroom much better than you normally get at this price point in the UK. The only downside was the lack of hanging space (just a hook on the back of the door). 

The wifi was good, there were tea and coffee making facilities and the TV was good. 

Breakfast was huge and decent quality for £10 extra. 

I’d most definitely consider staying here again if I was in the area.

Good value and great breakfast 

We arrived thinking it seemed quite a nice place to stay, following an AGM locally.  However, things quickly deteriorated from there.  

We had arranged to meet some others for an evening meal, and were told initially that they were out of several dishes on the limited menu, we then reselected and ordered to then be told that the chef was no longer serving food as he had to prep for the next day.  This was at 8:20pm on a Saturday evening.  We were told of another pub down the road that served food, so we all went there.  Disappointing to say that 4 of the group of 6 were hotel guests.

Early Sunday morning, we discovered the wi-fi wasn’t working, but were unable to find anyone to report this to.  I did report it once they opened for breakfast, and was told they could do nothing about it.  Sadly I had very poor reception there from my device service provider, so was unable to use the internet.

You have to book what time you would like to go down for breakfast the night before, which we duly booked for 9am (the earliest you can have breakfast).

We met with the others that were staying there for breakfast and ordered.  We had to wait 45 mins for the 4 breakfasts to arrive.  Three had to be sent back as they arrived cold, the other was warm.  Another long wait (30 mins) and replacement hot breakfasts were provided.  As we left some others who had gone down for breakfast as the same time as us were still waiting for their breakfasts to be served.

This was really unacceptable as we were all meeting up with someone else after breakfast.

In the room, the curtains were not fully attached to the rail, and there was no plug for the bathroom sink.  The kettle in the room was also semi full of water on our arrival.  These were small issues that I would have over looked, but with everything else on top, are worth mentioning.

Really disappointing, and wouldn’t stay here again

Bad experience

Twin bedded room one night stay Easter, TV,  tea/coffee making facillities, quite, comfortable with excellent free parking, on suite shower over bath, plenty of storage hanging space.  Large dining area and bar with friendly staff.
