The room was beautifully appointed. Last stayed here 5 years ago - what a transformation! Lovely linen and huge towels. Coffee machine, air con and good toiletries. Fresh milk - lovely touch. Dinner menu was typical pub grub. Fish and chips a bit too oily for me. Breakfast was excellent- good choice and plenty (we were too full up from dinner to take advantage!) super friendly staff.

A charming stopover on the way north from Heathrow

I stayed here before Christmas to avoid falling asleep on the motorway driving north after an overnight flight to Heathrow and it was the perfect place to break the journey. The Bedford Arms is on the edge of the tiny village of Chenies and is a warm and charming small hotel with very comfortable rooms, a good restaurant and bar. The staff were all very helpful and attentive, especially the female manager - I felt very welcome and looked after. The beautiful and ancient Chenies Manor House is within walking distance but sadly was not open to visitors the day I was there.

Room was clean and comfortable but breakfast was not very generous. It’s on the menu we’re not on the table and service was not attentive. Had to keep finding staff to ask for things

Very nice property and exceptionally clean with very comfortable beds and bedding. It looks like they were a little shy on staffing thus service was a little slow, including in the restaurant. Would still recommend this property.

Beautiful hotel, stunning location.

Stunning bedroom, very comfortable. Quality products in the bathroom. Beautiful hotel but, unfortunately, when we went for an evening drink in the bar the barman seemed to be on his own & rushed off his feet. We decided to walk along the road to the Red Lion pub & had a warm welcome from the many staff.
