Loved the old country charm and all the cosy places to sit and enjoy good food and wine in front of a open log fire , really couldn't fault the Bear , a wonderful place to stay

Thank you for your kind words. A roaring log fire and a cold glass of wine sounds good to me too! We would love to see you again if you would like to visit us again

We booked this place at the last minute without very high expectations. However we had a wonderful stay at the Bear. The thing we loved the most was the absolutely amazing view from our room. I can’t imagine staying at this property without getting a room with a view to the valley. To add to this was a comfortable bed and very friendly service all around. We especially enjoyed our meals in the busy pub with its cozy atmosphere and good food (including the crumble and sticky toffee pudding). They are very dog friendly- our pup enjoyed the free treats and nice bed for him in our room. There is a beautiful walk just steps outside the hotel and many other walks we enjoyed nearby. We look forward to returning.

I booked 2 nights via expedia but added an additional night a day earlier by telephoning the hotel direct, the only room available for 3 nights was a single so I was effectively downgraded for the 2 nights booked through expedia. I should receive back a credit from expedia, the single room was fine with the exception of the toilet which was installed where use was constricted, if it had been installed at an angle it would have been OK.
The arrival, staff and accomodation other than the toilet was excellent

Thank you for staying with us. I am sorry to hear that you had problems during your stay with us. Unfortunately we are unable to move the toilet at this stage but will pass on your comments for when they plan a refurbishment.
