Nice

The electric wall heater had stopped working, my room therefore was very cold on arrival. After asking reception about it I was given a small plug in panel heater which gave off a little heat, unfortunately with bei g in the end loft room it did not warm up sufficiently

Great value & friendly staff

second visit to friendly, comfortable pub. Traveling on my own, I booked a twin room but on arrival I was offered a free upgrade to a king room. Very comfortable & although situated near the outside drinking area, being October there were not any late night drinkers. I was offered a table in either the bar or restaurant for my evening meal. The menu covers all options & the specials were also appealing. Excellent food & service from friendly staff. Sunday breakfast was from 9am however I wanted to be off by 8.45am. Although hot food was not available I was offered my pick of the pastries, fruit etc. Great value for money & friendly place to stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Bathroom was very basic with no toiletries other than watery hand wash. No shelves in room for clothes. Lighting very poor so impossible to read. Continental breakfast consisted of an airline type bag delivered to your room the previous evening and containing a croissant, orange juice, cereal bar and apple. Very poor. On the plus side, the bed was large and very comfortable. The food in the pub was excellent and the staff very pleasant and helpful

Great overnight stop.

Lovely rest stop. Nice to have a private chalet away from the pub and noise. Continental breakfast was amazing which was included. Upgrade to full English for £10.50. My husband said it was great. Staff were friendly and helpful. Close to Audley End which is why we chose it.
