Kingham Plough

We stayed at ‘little barn’ for the weekend and while it does look the part it was a bit tired in places. For example, we planned to have a BBQ and the BBQ was not in a fit state to be used - as you can see by the picture attached, it was dirty, rusty and very small. For the price paid at minimum we expected a working option like a little Weber or similar. It was the middle of summer and yet leaves from winter had not been swept up and it was generally just a bit unkept outside, which was a shame as it was a lovely hot weather weekend. The electrics were a bit odd and counter intuitive. The bulb didn’t work in one of the larger lamps in the lounge. The breakfast wasn’t as good as I recalled. Boiled eggs were over cooked, soldiers were bread when toast was requested and no yogurt was available. Other than those gripes the location is stunning, the pub itself is a very short work from the little barn. Parking wasn’t an issue and the service we received was fab. Dinner was also excellent! I had stayed several times before and was always impressed so I was very confident in booking little barn for my group for friends. Overall it was fine, we had a lovely time - but those less than ideal elements would have been the icing on the cake had they also been of the standard expected.
