We stopped here for one night. Not a bad place, and location was perfect for what we needed (visiting Statfold Country Park the next day - outstanding place.)
Appleby Inn Hotel is a busy family pub, with a large restaurant, and some hotel rooms. When we arrived the pub/restaurant was very busy and quite noisy - this quietened down as the evening wore on, and overnight, was very quiet.
Restaurant served a good range of food, which we enjoyed.
Breakfast was very good; cooked to order and decent quality.
We'd probably stop here again if nearby; it was convenient and comfortable, though a little characterless.
