Friendly, Comfortable and Clean
Booked an overnight stop based on previous reviews. Service was helpful and friendly and the room was well equipped and clean. I spent the evening in the bar watching England's World Cup match. The atmosphere was cosy. The locals and owners were very welcoming. The only downside was that breakfast was not available on Monday morning, although the home-made cookies in the room made up for it.

Gorgeous Country Retreat!
What a lovely little country pub and retreat! The staff couldn't have been friendlier and the room was gorgeous. We stayed for a wedding taking place in Buntingford, which is a 20 min taxi journey. One tip; book taxis well in advance as this was the only drawback. Would recommend this place to anybody and would love to stay again.
