Bear and Ragged Staff

Attended for my birthday lunch. The staff didn't know it was my birthday but must have heard my partner saying happy birthday to me. At the end of our excellent meal the wonderful staff brought out the most fantastic brownies on a plate saying happy birthday. I was so touched. How thoughtful. I'm vegetarian and I was delighted with the multiple choices available. Opted for the vegan cottage pie. Honestly one of the most delicious meals I have ever eaten. Highly recommend.

We needed to find a nice breakfast after staying at a local camp-site nearby. The Bear and Ragged Staff came up on Google maps and we took a chance. So glad we did! We had Eggs Benedict, poached eggs and mushrooms and pancakes plus coffees and hit chocolate. Service was excellent.

Reviewing as a guest of the hotel. The room is definitely quaint and supplied well, and the bed was comfortable. But come 7am the trucks turned up! Yes two! Outside the bedroom door and started to unload kegs, very loudly from the storage area underneath the bedrooms!!! There was no pretence to even pretend to care about the guests above, even hearing them ask if someone wanted a coffee! Rolling kegs along the ground is super loud and to not even give guests a head up, in my opinion is not acceptable at all. I work PST so work until around 2am, but to get a wake up call at 7am without even requesting one was a little to much for me. Serious attention. Required here.
