Wonderful service at the Bedford Arms We stayed 4 nights at the delightful Bedford Arms. The room was stylish yet cosy. The most outstanding feature of our stay was the marvellous service. We were given a relaxed and warm welcome by Evan, the charming Deputy Manager, who made sure we were comfortable at all times. The dinner we had organised for 10 old friends went totally smoothly thanks to the attentive service of Nish, helped by Max and Dan. Tracey looked after us superbly at our lunch with two old friends. What a wonderful team! Congratulations.

Top notch pub with very nice food and service Went there to celebrate Boxing Day with my family. Lovely pub in a country setting, ideal to walk your dog before food. Service was great and felt nicely looked after. Food was high quality, simple-ish pub fair but was really well done. Definitely recommend.
