Cannot wait to come back for dinner & stay!

It was lovely, I am planning to come back to stay for dinner and and a night's stay to really make the most of it - it was a fantastic room, very large and the bed was huge! The breakfast too was amazing as others have mentioned - absolutely stuffed and was one of the best I've ever had at a hotel. Literally already planning a comeback!

We have stayed at the Hopping Hare a few times. It is a great pub, the food is very good, and the staff are very helpful. We would recommend the Hopping Hare to anyone. Only down side is getting to the rooms can be a little tricky - narrow passage ways and stairs.

Excellent food and service with a really nice atmosphere. Room was spacious and clean. My only complaint would be the mattress was slightly too firm for me and my wifes liking. Will definitely stay again if in the area.
