Amazing food service.
A traditional Sunday Lunch is an experience one should not miss, and guests staying at The Iron Duke will find that their every desire is met for the Sunday Lunch. From full roast chicken, served on a bed of bacon and vegetables, still in its roasting pan, to legs of lamb, guests will not be disappointed.

Negative Reviews
negative:
The Pub noise.
The onsite restaurant and bar offers not only guests a great location to spend their weekend evenings. The noise from The Pub does however travel to the guest rooms, and those looking for an early night, and suffer from being light sleepers, may find the situation undesirable.
negative:
Difficulty parking.
Guests arriving by car will find the fact there is an onsite parking lot to be convenient, but also a difficulty. The small parking lot offers a test to even the most skilled of drivers, and especially to those driving big vehicles.
negative:
Uneven floors.
Some rooms are unfortunately blessed with uneven flooring, which is in due thanks to the age of the building. Guests may either find the situation laughable, or more likely, annoying, and disturbing.
