Amazing cozy dinner!

We had such a fab time! Started with a delicious cheese soufflé and then the venison was top-notch. The vibe was super chill and the staff were just the best. Only thing was it got a bit crowded, so had to wait a while for a table. Definitely worth it though!

The Drunken Duck Inn features rustic-chic decor, with charming tongue-and-groove panelling and slate-effect tiling, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The accessible layout made it easy for me to navigate comfortably during my stay.

More comfortable seating options for seniors would be helpful.

Charming stay with great food!

I recently enjoyed a wonderful one-night stay in a Standard King Room. The charming decor and spacious layout made for a cozy atmosphere, and the friendly staff added to the welcoming vibe. Breakfast was delicious, featuring a range of freshly made options. I found that the dining menu could benefit from a bit more variety for dinner.
