Great place to eat, dining room really ornate, such a great pub and restaurant, food and service top notch. We had scotch egg and pigs in blanket sausage roll for starters, both were very good as we're the mains , steak ale pie with mash and veg and also my partner's plate of sea bream was very good too, will definitely be returning soon.

Dreadful....very expensive room, lovely bathroom and view however cleanliness of surfaces in bedroom left a lot to be desired. Room wasn't serviced by 3.00 pm awful...Breakfast cheap and nasty, toast served on same plate as food...evening meal, fish smelt stale...horrible experience...no mask wearing by staff, know its not obligatory at the moment but first hotel we have stayed where staff did not wear them...felt everything below standard...Brewery owned....not good...

Really super small hotel, great staff, our room was large and airy, slightly querky too get a sea view room if you can as the views are superb. Lovely terrace to sit and have a drink, all in all very peaceful and very clean.

This used to be a first class hotel and restaurant. Its grandeur is a little faded these days. However its still a nice experience we had a nice tea and cake. The rest of the customers seemed to be enjoying their lunch , the burgers and fish finger baguettes looked great. Nice views across to isle of Wight and staff very attentive and jolly.
