This was a return visit despite a poor experience earlier in the year. The welcome was almost non existent when I was shown to my room. The Boot is dirty and shabby especially in the public areas. The staff have a dismissive attitude and the level of service is dreadful with a lack of observation or care. I will definitely not be returning!!

Bedroom terrible

The pub was lovely, staff were gracious and polite, evening meal and breakfast delicious. Unfortunately the condition of the bedroom was terrible due too stale water smell from the shower. Disappointingly this ruined what would have been a nice stay.
