A nice and cosy 14 century accommodation. Arrived and asked if we could book a table at the pub for the evening meal , no problem at all.was the reply . The staff nice and friendly and the food was excellent. If you go in the summer months a nice area for children to play in the garden. Out in the sticks but a lovely location.

Been several years since I last stayed here. It is in a beautiful rural hamlet only 20 mins from Welwyn Garden City. It is a very quaint place to stay that is dog friendly. The staff are also great. I didn’t realise the bar closed at 8pm on a Monday and the menu was very limited for me as a gluten free diner. I had to have dinner between 6 and 7 ish. I ordered the soup that was delicious with GF bread. Then my only choice was ham and chips with eggs that catered to my GF needs. This morning at breakfast, as I was the only staying guest, there was no-one to ask re Gluten Free bread for toast. Breakfast was self service with hot drinks, juices, cereal, breads / croissants and apples. As I am GF I could t see at GF bread so I had some juice, coffee and an apple. I would definitely go back but now fully appreciate the Monday night early shut down etc. Room was cosy and warm. Shower very hot which was great. Tea and coffee in room with biscuits.

Stayed 1 night

The room was in OK condition though V small but the overiding thing was that it was freezing. A wall mounted heater is in place but not switched on and it was only 3degC outside. The room took ages to heat up and was not warm by the time I went to bed; this should have been pre-heated prior to my arrival. The courtyard outside was filled with deep puddles and mostly pitch black so I couldn't see to avoid the puddles and therefore ended up with wet feet.
