"I highly recommend this beautiful hotel restaurant. The food was delicious and the staff were extremely friendly. We attended a wedding reception at the hotel, which was fantastic. Our overnight stay in a lovely room was also excellent. I would definitely suggest checking out this place."

"My husband and I bought an itison voucher for brunch for £29 for The Sorn Inn. When we arrived at 12 we were the only ones in the restaurant. I ordered the eggs benedict with the sauce on the side and my husband ordered the full scottish breakfast. We had to wait a while, I'm unsure how long exactly but we weren't too bothered as we thought our food was all being made fresh. When it arrived, my husband's food look really nice. No complaints there. My eggs benedict consisted of 2 cold toasted slices of bloomer bread. One with 1 slice of fried bacon on it and the other with 1 poached egg. The hollandaise sauce was in fact mayonnaise. I called the waitress over and told her this wasn't what I ordered. I ordered eggs benedict which was stated on the menu as a toasted muffin, ham and poached eggs with a hollandaise sauce. She was lovely. She apologised and said she would take it back to the kitchen. After she done this she returned and said that there was no muffins left and would I like to order something else. By this point my husband was halfway through his breakfast. Why was eggs benedict even on the menu if there were no muffins?? I told the waitress I would have the full scottish breakfast then. By this time there was 2 other tables filled and the eggs benedictwas still being sold. Our waitress brought me over another coffee while I waited on my breakfast. It wasn't quick. It was alright when it arrived. But not great. The toast was still cold and there wasn't any butter. Zoe our waitress was wonderful. Whatever the owners are paying her, just isn't enough. She was apologetic, attentive and calm under pressure. Why didn't the chef tell Zoe to take the eggs benedict off the menu as it was still being sold when we were leaving. What kind of chef thinks cold toast, bacon and mayo is eggs benedict? We have been to the Sorn Inn on numerous times before and the food has been outstanding. Such a shame as we do like to eat out and support local and smaller restaurants but we won't be hurrying back."

"Not the greatest food you'll ever eat. To be fair, I visited quite late on a Sunday night so perhaps I wasn't getting the best food they can offer and I was the only one in the restaurant although I imagine more people get takeaway food. I wasn't exactly impressed though. The mango lassi didn't taste of mango and had some odd fibres in it presumably from the mango? Hard to tell. It wasn't what I was hoping for though. I had the vegetable dhansak with pilau rice which didn't really taste of anything and was generally quite bland. I put quite a bit of salt on it! Not really spicy at all though. The rice was a bit odd in that it came served on my plate for me already, when I was expecting a small dish of rice but rice is rice, it was fine. Poppadom was good but the sauces with it were odd, i had onion salad but couldn't figure out what the other was supposed to be. They kept turning the music up and down or off entirely and it was just a weird experience. Might be better when it's busier but I won't be returning to find out. It was literally the only place still serving food which is the only reason I ate there in the first place. As with all Indian restaurants, there were both gluten free and vegetarian options."

"There aren't many options for a bed and breakfast in the area, so we decided to stay at this place based on the decent reviews. However, we were disappointed to find that it was quite run-down. The walls were paper-thin, allowing us to hear everything happening around us. There were holes in the bedroom and wardrobe walls that we had to cover with toilet paper. The bathroom had a large gap around the bath and sink, causing water to splash everywhere. We had to hold the shower hose because the attachment was broken. There was no bedside light and the bed covers looked outdated. The blind in the room was very dirty, with dead flies and spiders stuck to it. Unfortunately, there were no biscuits to enjoy with our tea, and breakfast was not available until noon because the chef doesn't start until then."
