One night stay
Stayed for dinner, was pretty poor, both chicken burger and beef burger overcooked and dry. Starters too small and Mains to big. Breakfast nice

Comfortable quiet country pub great for a recharge
The Fox was situated in a very pretty and quiet area. The room was well kept and the bed very comfortable. The food was delicious and served at a very relaxed pace. The staff listened to feedback and gave great service. A perfect place for a rest and recharge. I would have like to have seen bottled water anda box of tissues in the room for an extra touch.

8/10 Very good

The staff at the Fox were extremely friendly. The Room was a good size and bed comfortable however one of our rooms had very steep eaves which restricted movement without leaning over. The food was good standard pub food, as was the breakfast, without hitting any heights, hence 4 stars, but service was excellent.

10/10 Exceptional

The Fox Inn is a beautiful, well maintained property. Our room was spotless and very comfortable on the top floor. We found the staff to be helpful and friendly and both dinner and the two breakfasts we had were well cooked and delicious. A car is essential for travelling as the inn is situated in a very rural area, but there are country walks that can be taken from the inn itself.
