I will get the right numbers next week when I have emailed staff, might be around 15 people!

Hi, I just wanted to say how impressed we were by The Boot. My family and I came for lunch on Saturday 10th April. There were fifteen of us, we had pre-booked and pre-ordered. We felt very welcome when we arrived and were really well looked after. The service was fantastic, friendly and with a good sense of humour. The food was homemade, beautifully presented and delicious. We loved it. Thank you very much to all at The Boot.
We stayed over the weekend, and i can honestly say that i have never been to a more friendly, relaxed and enjoyable pub/inn before. The staff were so helpful, and couldnt do enough to make our stay, one to remember. The room and food were excellent. I would love to go back at some point.
