This is what a country pub should be like. Excellent food served in a stylish and informal setting by professional and friendly staff. A wide range of casks and draught ales and lagers was accompanied by a rounded wine list with many flavoured spirits and interesting concoctions available for the more adventurous. The menu was both varied and interesting, the food well presented and of an excellent standard. The room was spacious and well appointed with a large ensuite that included a rolltop bath. The complete package is competitively priced and excellnet value. We will definitely return for another indulgent stay. Thank you Sarah, Paul and team.

Fantastic food and hosts

Fantastic stay, room had contactless check-in, lovely local pub atmosphere, the menu choice was stunning, matched only by the quality and presentation, when we got the bill we thought that they had missed some items but it turned out to be just incredible value, 2 x 3 courses and 5 drinks under £80, Sarah and Paul are fantastic hosts and should be very ñtoud of their business. My only suggestion would be another shelf in the bathroom and something to hold toiletries in the shower (although these might be in the other rooms already) all in all i would thoroughly recommend the 5 Dials and will definitely stay again (maybe in the summer to enjoy the outside area)

Our stay at the Five Dials was very enjoyable, even if it was just for one night. Our room was immaculately clean and spacious. The breakfast included was fabulous, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend anyone - thank you!
