Comfortable beds.

Our stay at The Chequers was comfortable and the location was perfect for the wedding we were attending. The beds were so comfortable and the refreshments provided were excellent. We were disappointed that there was no breakfast available but fortunately the price of the room was reduced after speaking to the hosts. We found a lovely café in the town for breakfast which was great. The only improvement I would ask for is a bit better communication regarding check out and using the 24 hour access which was a fire escape, which was difficult for our family member with mobility issues. We felt that we had to ask for information rather than it being readily available or being communicated on check in. But mainly a great stay and we wouldreturn.

Spacious, clean, modern and comfortable

We stayed here whilst attending a wedding at Coltsfoot Country Retreat and were so pleased with the facilities, parking, friendly staff, and the comfortable, spacious room. The breakfast included was delicious - the full English was huge! If we were needing somewhere to stay in the area again we would definitely visit again.

Lovely room poor service

The room was fantastic. Spacious and well stocked, although there were only 2 sets of towels and the room had been booked for 3. The bathroom was huge. However, having booked bed and breakfast, we were told on arrival that they no longer served breakfast and this would be reflected in the price, but there was a cafe down the road. Not ideal when travelling with a child. Food was good, but £13.50 for a glass of wine is excessive. Check out was confusing, as I hadn’t yet paid for the hotel I waited until check out time, 11.00 to leave. No one was there to pay, I tried calling, but no answer so had to send a message asking them to call me for payment. When I got home I checked my credit card statement to find payment had been taken without telling me, and no receipt offer. Also because the pub wasn’t open we had to leave via their 24 hour access which is a metal fire escape. Not ideal with a suitcase. I have yet to hear back from them regarding the message I sent. A shame because the room was lovely.

Nice overnight stay for work

Great hotel with lovely food. Was very clean and comfortable. Only thing I would mention is that the staff were taking items from the external fridge/freezer at approx 7.30am with no consideration to the guests as they kept letting the door slam.
