    Lovely Sunday roast - was very pleasantly surprised with the apply crumble too! Hats off to the chef 🥳 Will recommend and come back ☺️ My server, Darcey, was also very friendly and attentive to delivering a great service!

    Absolute fantastic stay, the beef brisket burger was delicious, also the breakfast had one of the best tatsing black puddings i've tasted so far, all of the staff were very welcoming and helpful, my room was well prepared for my arrival and comfortable. Would happily stay again.

    I stayed overnight as a Brit Stops camper at the Dukes. Sarah was really accommodating and kept in contact with me about my late arrival. The breakfast was fantastic, thank you! This really set me up for the day. A doggy-friendly pub, The Dukes is in a very picturesque location which was really peaceful during the night. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area. Thank you 😊
