Lovely little pub/hotel in a beautiful location. We stayed here for two nights in a room with three people. We immediately felt at home when we walked in, and we decided to stay for dinner instead of going out, which we had planned initially. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming and the food was great! The room was clean and very spacious. The breakfast was amazing, some of the best scrambled eggs we all had ever had. I ended up forgetting some of my toiletries, but the staff very kindly sent it over to me, free of charge! All in all a great stay, and I will definitely return!

We decided to try here for a Sunday roast after reading good reviews. I must admit when we drove into the car park, it wasn't a good view. However as soon as you step through the door what a delight. A lovely greeting as well entered, a lovely layout and a great choice of food. We ordered our drinks & food and we were not disappointed. This was a truly great traditional roast. I had the brisket of beef and it was melt in the mouth. Plenty of roast potatoes, a good range of vegetables & loads of gravy in a pouring jug. The chef even came out to talk to us and asked our thoughts. This was a truly great experience. Very highly recommended.

I booked three rooms at the Leaping Salmon for myself and my bridesmaids to get ready in before my wedding. The staff at the Leaping Salmon were very accommodating and the breakfast was delicious with great coffee and vegan and vegetarian options. Definitely recommend :)

We (group of 12) had lunch at the Leaping Salmon yesterday. It's a lovely building with lots of character. They have a nice menu with veggie/vegan options and a great choice of beers on tap. Lovely friendly staff who took the time to explain the menu and answer any questions before taking our order and my risotto was delicious!

Enjoyed a gorgeous Sunday lunch in this really characterful pub. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful, with very attentive service. A good choice of local ales from the bar and a great selection of food on the menu. Various options for a traditional roast. A large portion of beef brisket came with loads of vegetables on the side. The hake with mussels and lobster sauce was savoured by those who had opted for it and the Thai curry was equally delicious. Deserts were equally impressive - with lovely home made ice creams. All in all, a great place to eat at and I would highly recommend a visit. We will definitely be returning!

Had a fantastic stay here. Lovely little village. Rooms have a great view over the river. Staff were super friendly and attentive. Food was superb. Breakfast spot on and homemade crumpets not something we had ever tried before. Rooms are clean with a decent sized en suite shower room (being ultra picky, could do with a refresh of mastic in the shower). No TV but decent WiFi. Family room had futons for children but probably not too comfy for older children. Will visit again!

Really nice place, stayed for a few days. Rooms are above the bar with there own access. Food and prices are good and staff are super friendly. Chef comes out to check the food is ok. They make a special 50/50 burger I took my pic to late to use as I had eaten 2/3s . Some really nice walks near by. The wild horses had babies when we was there end of May.
