10/10 Exceptional

Surprised and delighted!

A tastefully and comfortably modernised pub in a somewhat downbeat village near the M1 and airport but surprisingly quiet. The M1 is white noise in the background. I couldn't hear the planes. Rooms in the pub's grounds were comfortable with parking right outside and the food was amazing, including breakfast. No soggy mushrooms! If I was a lone female traveller I would feel particularly safe here. Very happy that we broke our journey overnight and will definitely do so again.

Excellent venue and location. Room was in an annexe that was well maintained and had everything we needed. Food and service were top quality and would highly recommend.

Had been 3 years since I stayed at the Royal Oak and my last visit stayed there. Knew it was very nice place but my last visit showed it is now even better. Friendly staff, comfortable surroundings, excellent food, spot on!
graeme, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice pub, great food, especially the vegan fish and chips. The room are really nicely furnished and comfortable. The downside for me was that you can clearly hear the people in the next room which kept me awake until 1am and again at 5am, this is not great when you have business meetings the following day, they really need to do something about the sound insulation. I wouldn't go out of my way to stay here again.

8/10 Very good

We stayed over for a wedding. Rooms were comfy and clean but lots of noise from the neighbours on either side woke us up quite early which was annoying as we were looking forward to Sunday lay in. We didnt have an evening meal but food looked lovely. Breakfast was really nice.
Katie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Relaxing break after long drive.

Relaxing stay after a long drive, room very clean and comfortable. Restaurant was very good with a great choice, staff very professional and friendly.
Derek, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice but noisy

Lovely little pub and the food in the restaurant was great. The rooms however, have paper thin walls. The guest in the room next to ours left the TV on all night and it was like it was in our room. Even the sound of a spoon in a cup being stirred could be heard. It was a nice place and the location suited us, but it was a sleepless night and so we wouldn’t stay again.
Ian, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely place to stay. Each room has its own front door onto the car park. Rooms are comfortable and well equipped. The food and drink in the pub is really nice and the breakfast is brilliant. Will stay again if in the area.
