Views of open countryside and the rear walled garden from the French window. The room rates were very competitive, all the staff warm, friendly, attentive... More

We received a warm and friendly greeting when we arrived for New Years Day lunch.Very efficient service,by friendly,hard working waitress.There was an extensive menu to choose from.We enjoyed a delicious Sunday lunch and one mild chicken curry,with desserts. A very enjoyable start to the New Year and we will definately continue to eat at the Owl Hotel.
