Motorhome parking opposite to pub, plenty of space to stay the night. Facilities were not as described on BritStops. Disappointing

Booked a table for evening meal, lovely old building, good menu, staff very friendly. A good choice of gluten free or gluten free alternatives, as my wife has coeliac disease, the staff were so helpful! Very good food! Would recommend and we'll certainly go back!
