Summary: The pub itself was very quaint but there was so much wrong with the room and service that I really don't know where to start! The room was very small and musty smelling. It opened on to the beer garden but the window had no net curtains or privacy glass, so the only way to get privacy was to close the main curtains with a 10watt bulb in the ceiling. There was no wardrobe or chest of drawers, just a black wrought iron clothes rail with a knob which was perfectly positioned at eye-level! The worse part was that the whole place felt grubby, grimy and dirty. I've never seen such cheap, thin, degrained bed sheets and the pillows were also lumpy and disgusting. We decided to sleep on top of the bed rather than get inside! I knocked a tin of drink off the bedside table, mopped it up then used a wetted bath mat to clean the floor… the bathmat turned black with grime off the flooring! The bathroom was also musty and the extractor fan had a mesh over it which was full of dead wasps/insects! The towels were an off-white, creamy-grey colour and stained in several places. I wish I had more room here to write everything i wanted to cover. The only positive thing I can say about The Talkhouse is that the staff in the pub were very friendly. In summary, a quaint country pub with dirty, grubby rooms and zero customer service. Obviously, we'd never stay here again.
