The Plum Pudding

My partner and I, along with some family, stayed at the Plum Pudding in September 2023 whilst attending a wedding nearby. The rooms were fantastic and the best rooms I've stayed in within a pub. Our room was clean, and fresh, and looked new. The en suite bathroom was a good size, excellent powerful shower, with toiletries too. The bed was comfortable and of good quality. There was a kettle, coffee machine and mini fridge in the room, which was stocked with items for a continental breakfast including croissants, cheeses, fruit, fresh milk, orange juice, bottled still and sparkling water, and a selection of sliced meats which was a superb touch. A brilliant location for us, but also a lovely area. We have eaten at the Plum Pudding previously with family and the food and service was fantastic, though we didn't eat on this occasion. There is also a separate entrance to the rooms, and so returning after the pub closed was not an issue. All the staff we encountered were very friendly, including the brunette lady cleaning the rooms in the morning, asking us how our stay was. It was incredibly hot weather during our stay due to the 30°C heatwave, but we had fans in the room, and the staff did what they could to keep the rooms cool prior to our arrival, and despite the heat we slept very well. Overall, a fabulous place to stay, and we would highly recommend to those considering it.

Excellent stay at this great pub with lovely bedrooms. Food was lovely and the atmosphere great, very welcoming and staff really pleasant and helpful. Great location in lovely quiet and pretty village. The bedroom was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Continental breakfast in room really good and absolutely everything you need. Will definitely be back to stay again.

We booked two room here for six nights so we could attend RIAT. The rooms were superb, clean and all the facilities needed. It is a quiet village with a real feeling of being a temporary local :-) We ate at the pub every night and was never disappointed with a good choice of home cooked food. The sausages and mash were superb. The momager (Casey) was fantastic, knowledgeable and very professional. A slight challenge is parking, but there are options and this never posed any detriment to our stay. Will be booking for 2024.

Been to the plum pudding a couple of times now and I really like it. The beer is good, the staff are friendly and attentive and the food is definitely better than your average pub. This time we were in on a Sunday. All the roasts were great. Kids portions were a bit big for the littlest but just right for a hungry 10yo. Previously I've also sat outside in the garden in the summer which was very pleasant. Again the food was very good although we got there at the tail end of the lunch rush so it did take a while to come out.
