    No breakfast options, but was given recommendations. Granny's cafe did a lovely breakfast near by. We stayed in The Helm, it was comfortable but I was disappointed in the bathroom to find the grout between the tiles on the floor had been removed and patched up in other places, the whole floor needed work. Was uneven to walk on.Also holes in wall tiles where something had been removed, Also the front door didn't shut properly at the bottom and I was worried it would be drafty. I felt abit let down as the acomadation was a surprise for my partner until we got there. (By the canal) Also the bedside tables were dusty and there was spiders roaming around over the bed. Maybe we were first people to stay in that room this year? I feel I would have complained if I'd paid more money but thought I paid a fair price for the Bank Holiday and we heard in the bar that all rooms were booked out. So we wouldn't have been able to be moved. We would stay again if passing again, but needs a few jobs doing around.

    We liked the location, great for a walk along the canal. Free parking, staff were friendly.

    Blinds could have been better to keep out light so I'd bring a face mask if a light sleeper. Better pillows would be an improvement.

    Really welcoming and friendly staff. Great having a pub just across from my room for drinks and dinner. The food was excellent. Very lovely scenery of the river and lock overlooking the countryside.

    The room was really cold on arrival and didn’t heat up quickly. It was pleasant by the next morning but sadly we had to leave. Perhaps the heater could have been on before we arrived to warm the room up ? The pub was situated on the main road, which was difficult to cross because of the heavy volume of traffic.

    We enjoyed the evening meal and the waitress was very efficient and pleasant. However they did not provide any breakfast.

    The heated towel rail in our room was not working, which meant that we had to have extra towels. We also initially had problems with our TV. The former could not be fixed while we were there (hence the extra towels); the latter was resolved quickly and efficiently.

    Clean, comfortable, well-furnished room; polite and friendly service; breakfast was very good.

    With the rooms not located in the main Pub building and located at the far end of the car park I would have felt more secure with a mortice lock fitted on the doors not a standard Yale lock, I never left anything of value in the rooms when I was out due to this. Some could say I was nit picking but worth noting all the same.

    The location was superb. I had the small breakfast which was included with my booking this was far from small and very good. I had a meal at night this was also of good quality. The rooms were small self contained units but very comforable. These were situated at the far end of the car park.

    The bed and bedding could have been more comfortable. The grout/seal looked like it could have done with replacing in the bathroom.

    The location is amazing overlooking the river. The food at the pub was fabulous. The staff are super friendly too. We went to Silverstone so it was close by to that. The room was a good size and nicely decorated.

    Hairs/insects in room so could have been more thoroughly cleaned. Wasn't aware of £6.50 surplus charge pp for bigger breakfast before ordering, would recommend this is printed on the menu.

    Friendly staff and service, room feels like a private cottage, picturesque view outside whilst eating dinner, the big narrowboat breakfast is great to fuel you for the whole day especially if you're going Silverstone, remote area so handy to have a restaurant on site.

    Easy to find, great food, clean rooms. Breakfast was available every day at the property. 7-10am weekdays and 8-10 Saturday and Sunday. This I think is a new change as reviews I'd read before the stay said no breakfast. Breakfast was good and Both hot and cold options were available.

    No breakfast available except at weekends. Noise from A5 traffic at night. I imagine the rooms to be cold in winter as entrance door allowed a draught.
