The Black Horse was gem in a nice country setting. Craig was a great host, plenty of walking trails around the area. Tuesday was steak night (compliments to the chef it was fantastically done!)
An impromptu gathering of locals forming a shanty group was a fun and unique experience. Craig pours a good pint of Guinness which is a bonus!
Room was spacious and tidy with my own private bathroom, kitchenet with continental breakfast.
Craig was on hand if I needed anything! Would recommend and will be stopping again when in the area for work.

Lovely food in the evening. But the rooms had no TV, advertised as having them but not in rooms?
This would help to improve the customers experience we feel.

Lovely country pub, with beautifully decorated rooms. Staff were welcoming and food good value.
The rooms could be imroved by having somewhere to put your clothes, even a chair or a hanger on a coat rack, but ours ended up on the floor. There was a hairdryer under the sink in the shared kitchen, but I would prefer one in the room. I would also prefer tea/coffee making facilities in the room, rather than walking down the corridor to make a drink in the shared kitchen. The continental breakfast was good, and was left in the shared kitchen, but a tray would have been useful to carry it back to the room.
There are no TVs in the room, which is unusual.
I would check they are serving food when you are staying.
Its a great pub, and I would stay again.

Breakfast was self serve up by the rooms but worked fine. No toiletries in the bathroom to shower in the morning . No TV but that did not bother me. Quite a nice change.
Lovely pub with a roaring log fire and nice dinner menu in a very cute village
Good parking on site

Lovely find.. specious and fresh room...

Did a late booking for a business trip. Great service by staff who contacted me and explained the self check in process as I arrived in the late evening. Accommodated a late change I made and were very helpful. Beautifully renovated property with lots of parking, spacious room with good amenities and comfy bed and bedding. Spotlessly clean room and bathroom. Highly recommended for business or pleasure!!!

Beyond the exquisitely accommodating staff was a community that took us in and made us feel welcome. You would not believe the true tales of generosity so we won’t share them. Trust us that the people of the Black Horse and Brent Pelham will make you feel like a treasured guest. Our recommendation knows no bounds.

The Pub was a grade 2 listed building which was a 1700 era the best way to describe it is Quirky! . The internal pub area was full of history and upstairs the rooms fixtures and fitting new with the decoration being fresh but sympathetic to the age of the building. the food was good Pub Grub and the cooked breakfast was great Full English or Full Scottish Both filling and well cooked, served piping hot! Lovely outside area and caters for Dogs.

Room was double booked
We arrived and were told that another couple was in our room. The staff offered us a complimentary drink while they sorted it out, we were led to believe there was jut a mix-up.
However the room was double booked, the staff asked a family member to vacate another room for us with no ensuite and said they wouldn't charge me but I haven't had my money back over a month later.
