What a cheek. I paid a £54 50% deposit for a room in cash after having a few drinks here some weeks ago and asking my wife if she wanted a date night stay. Unfortunately due to break ins of cars in the road, mine and my daughters cars had there drivers window smashed I had to cancel 24hrs early . So I rang them and some lady who answered had the cheek to ask for the remainder of the room price as I was not cancelling within 48hrs. Good job I paid in cash. I won't be coming back.... Ever..... and I will make sure I let friends and family know. Unbelievable.
Hi Shannon,
Thank you for taking the time to respond to my review. I understand that cancellation policies are necessary, and I appreciate your explanation. However, my frustration stemmed from the unexpected nature of the situation I was in, having to deal with car break-ins just 24 hours before my planned stay. It was an unusual and stressful circumstance, and I had hoped for a bit more understanding at that moment.
While I now understand that the option to move the booking to a different date may have been possible, it was not clearly communicated during my call. I felt that the response I received lacked empathy given the challenging situation I was facing, which led to my decision to share my experience.
I have edited this review on the response I had from Shannon. My initial rating was based on exasperation, rather than facts which I apologise for. I appreciate independent business need revenue like this post Covid but small businesses usually stem from a culture of experience and lessons learnt. Always have these teachings in place from day 1.

I’ve eaten here regularly for the past couple of years. I’ve left positive reviews as the food has been excellent. Called in yesterday for lunch and I was disappointed. I wasn’t particularly hungry and just ordered a chicken wrap. It looked okay but was actually dry and tasteless. My friend just ordered some chips. They were not cooked to the point of being hard in the middle. We were not asked how are meal was so we left feeling very disappointed. Come on wool pack, you can do better than this!

Eaten at The Woolpack Inn 10+ times in the past year or two and always quality standard food and great service, never stayed in one of their rooms as live locally but i’m sure that would be top standard too!
Even when passing by, great place to pop in for a drink, lovely bar facility downstairs split away from the main restaurant.
5/5 😁👌🏻

Second lunch I've had here in last couple of months. Cannot fault it. The food was really well thought through and very tasty. The ambience was lovely. And the service was excellent.
I've no doubt I will return and would heartily recommend!

I didn't stay at the hotel, just went for dinner.
I had a couple of excellent pints of Abbott Ale, perfectly kept and served at the correct temperature.
I ordered bangers and mash. The mashed potatoes and carrots were great but the sausages tasted like they had been cooked in the microwave.
