Friendly and great value
Lovely pub. The room was in an outbuilding behind it - simple but clean and nicely decorated. Friendly welcome and great service. Mattress wasn't the most comfortable, but all in all a lovely place to stay at a very good price - I would definitely stay again.

Check in was easy. Friendly and efficient. Check out is at 10am every where else seems to be 11am. Dog friendly. Not able to park in the car park so a residential side road.

Conveniently located close to Stansted Airport I slept in a twin bed room with two single beds. The mattresses were very uncomfortable on both beds. New mattresses are essential. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Great place to stay before a Stansted flight.
An excellent place to stay before an early flight from Stansted. Only drawback was the taxi fare of £31 to get to the airport. Very friendly welcome, even though it was late at night when we arrived. Would definitely stay there again.

The pub was lovely on the inside very clean and comfortable. Rooms were lovely like little cottages in the garden. Both our rooms were clean and comfortable. Plenty of coffee tea milk sugar on the welcome tray. Lovely towels and bedding. Really welcoming friendly staff. Good food at a decent price available. The only thing we didn't like was people standing in the open doorway smoking which is only a few feet away from the tables where we were eating so they might as well have been sitting at our table doing it

Lady that checked us in was lovely. No hanging space, not even a hook! Shower area was mouldy. Curtain rail fell down in the night and due to outside lights facing the room we were unable to sleep. Beds lumpy but clean Ok for a night but nothing more Emailed to let them know as we left early but have been ignored Very average.
