    We booked this place on a whim from a Google search. Complete pleasant surprise. The room was immaculately finished, the bed was comfortable and the complimentary Sloe gin was a lovely gesture. We had an evening meal which was delicious and plentiful (with a delightfully large rose wine) and breakfast was extremely good and freshly cooked. The staff were very helpful and friendly and the cost of the night was also competitive. Would definitely recommend and will be returning.

    We had our Daughters wedding reception at The Hare and Hounds last weekend, the staff were amazing, they could not do enough to help and make everyone feel so welcome. The food was very good, the rooms were excellent, it made for a very special day and evening. The facilities there worked really well with our own bar area, restaurant that turned into an ideal evening entertainment area. The Chef was very attentive making sure we were happy and the Manager Max and events manager Dani were incredible they did not stop working to ensure we had a great time. I recommend this to anyone looking for a family event or wedding for up to 70 people. Thanks very much Max and Dani.

    The food tastes as good as it looks (makes you do a little gig in your seat, delicious). Excellent service from the whole team. Another wonderful weekend escape at The Hare & Hounds. Can’t wait to stay again. Bodhi the dog loves staying here too
