Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The room was in poor condition. The toilet badly stained. The bathroom floor had not been cleaned. The woodwork damaged and unsightly on the plus side the staff were friendly and we had a nice meal . About 15 minute drive to Henley. Playhatch itself has nothing to offer so you need to drive out.

Gem of a country pub

Rooms were very nicely made up & comfortable. Food was excellent & staff even better. Bit of a gem of a country pub in my opinion, would happily stay again.
