The Star Inn 1744

Amazing staff and service The rooms and bar are beautiful I would highly recommend staying here, especially with the new Stewart Signs Sensation cocktail launching this summer!

Had a lovely lunch with 2 friends. Quiet, nice atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff. Had the salmon fish cakes, which were delicious, and cooked to perfection! My friends said their food was equally tasty. Was there on a Monday - great to find somewhere open, serving good quality food.

Thankyou so much for providing a beautiful last minute wake for my family. There was a few of us and without prebooking you arranged a platter of gorgeous sandwiches etc for us. Lovely chilled atmosphere, and was perfect for what we needed Much appreciated with thanks. 🙏🏻

Saturday night booking. Arrived early had a wine and pint of beer which was nice. Ordered our food, breads and oils and GB to start. All nice. Main course was lasagne and chips. Dry and burnt lasagne and chips under cooked NOT triple cooked. Boyfriend ate about 5 chips. Onion rings greasy and tasted of potatoes? I asked the waitress (who was lovely) if the pie was short crust or puff pastry as didn’t like the former. She said puff. It came out shortcrust and I tried it but awful presentation and pie was awful. Came to clear away and said “everything ok” said to them “no actually it was awful” (all plates had hardly been touched) they said they would take the lasagne off the bill as an apology and “it wasn’t normally like this”. Ended up paying £46 for one drink each some bread and oils. Very disappointing to be honest. Came home and had a bowl of cereal. Will not be back.

We visited this restaurant on a busy Saturday night .Wonderful ambiance, delicious food ,exceptional friendly staff who could not do enough for you. Thank you we will all be back for our third visit. Special thanks to Anya,and the other staff members (two male colleges and another lady ) sorry did not get your names.

What an amazing find. My daughter and I were visiting Ragdale Hall and stopped for 2 nights at The Star. Lovely friendly staff, great room with the most comfortable bed I have ever had in a hotel, spotlessly clean, great food, perfect all round

The good points first. Rooms were amazing, spacious clean and comfortable. The bad points. Where should I start? Pre-ordered Christmas Dinner, absolute shambles. Waiting staff asking us what was missing, Who else still needed food, considering we pre-ordered I'm not sure why it over 15minutes to get the table covered. Food. The Salmon was overcooked and the skin was burnt enough that you could lift it off what was left of the salmon, the roast beef was rubber, the vegetarian (supposed to be a Wellington? Was basically sage and onion stuffing on top of a puff pastry square. Definitely not fresh, it looked like it had been cooked previously and reheated. Lovely Roast potatoes though. Deserts. The Crème Brulee was basically hot custard with Bailey's. Extremely runny and not at all what a Crème Brulee should turn out like The Christmas Pudding was the smallest slice you slice from a slab of bought in pudding. The cheese board (which was included in the initial cost) didn't even arrive. For £95 a head (£49 for a kids meal) it was an absolute joke. If you stay here which I recommend as the rooms are great, please avoid the breakfast. Poached Eggs where basically boiled. Full English consisted of two over cooked sausages, Luke warm bacon took out of a hot hold, a raw tomato and some toast. Again this had to be pre-ordered and we had to specify what time we wanted breakfast for. Being so specific about timings surely should mean the food is cooked fresh for the time requested.

Inn offers a nice stay if your not on bussiness. Food was ok and bar cosy but beware of noise and no where to work on an evening if needed. Hosts accommodating and helpful. Parking is on the roads around but safe. My room was very small but adequate. Id only stay again if not working. Finally price is top end and expect to pay for breakfast which at £120 should be inc!!!

Really lovely surprise! As someone who stays in many different hotels for business, I have become used to uncomfortable nights in annoyingly arranged rooms! All those annoying little things in most hotel rooms had been thought about - there was a mirror above the desk, with a light, for make-up, there was a hairdryer in the same place. The room was spotless and the bed comfortable and the bar was welcoming and cosy, making it easy for a single woman to eat alone. The food was good too! Really friendly team and altogether a really lovely stay that set me up for a day’s work. Thank you!
