What guests think
Travellers describe The Richard Onslow as a welcoming pub-with-rooms with consistently friendly service, generally comfortable, spacious accommodation, and a central village setting that suits short stays, leisure breaks, and work trips.
Rooms are frequently described as very clean. Breakfast and pub dining are praised, with occasional remarks about value or simple dishes. Parking is available on site but can be tricky when non-guests use spaces or signage is unclear, while some high-street rooms report noise and a few bathrooms or fixtures feel dated or cramped. Overall, expect a friendly village-inn stay with comfortable rooms and minor trade-offs.

Super stay as a half way point from Wimbledon to the coast on bikes with kids. Excellent, spacious family room. Right on the Down’s link. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Lovely atmosphere on a sunny afternoon. Gastro pub, although we felt that the standard of the food could be improved a little. Overall though an enjoyable stay.

Friendly staff, really large modern comfy warm room, excellent restaurant for dinner and breakfast. And it is a great, busy pub with a good selection of (proper) beers. Even the problem with a slow draining shower tray in the morning (reported and being dealt with) didn't dampen a really relaxing overnight stay. Will return next time we are anywhere in the area.

The Richard Onslow is a nice property in a nice little town. However please review your parking. Locals use the parking spaces so there were none free consequently we ended up paying for parking and walking some way with our bags. When raised with the pub they asked the locals to move but by the time we got our car over someone had parked there again! I suggest if you know you have guests coming you cone the spaces off. We only booked based on parking.

This is a very special property which combines olde world charm with modern comfort, and is one of those rare places that exceeds your expectations. Staff are friendly and welcoming and the bar and restaurant charming and the room we stayed very spacious and comfortable. There was a good selection of real ales and the food outstanding; both my husband and I describing meal and particularly our starter (independently) as exquisite! Our thanks to everyone and in particular Gavin the chef. The only point we could think of for improvement was the signage for the car park.

We checked in quite late... upon arrival we were checked in seamlessly.. we stayed in room 6 which contained the smallest twin beds i have ever seen. The cost for such a small room is very over priced... i was charged over £100 but i had no choice as i attended an event that day. We woke up and checked out at 0630hrs as the bed was very uncomfortable and very small. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful but the cleansiness of the room was not to the best standard. We found dead bugs on the floor under the table and a long spider web hanging from the ceiling.

Firstly the bad, we had room 1 and the beds are so small it is difficult to feel secure. The room was freezing and we had to ask for an additional heater. The good ….. all of the staff without exception were friendly knowledgeable and took action when needed. The pub itself is one of our most favorite destinations, especially at this time of year. We have been coming for over 30 years when it wasn’t the Onslow but the Cranleigh pub We will come back but will be very reluctant to occupy room 1

Our thanks to everyone and in particular Gavin the chef. The only point we could think of for improvement was the signage for the car park.
This is a very special property which combines olde world charm with modern comfort, and is one of those rare places that exceeds your expectations. Staff are friendly and welcoming and the bar and restaurant charming and the room we stayed very spacious and comfortable. There was a good selection of real ales and the food outstanding; both my husband and I describing meal and particularly our starter (independently) as exquisite! Our thanks to everyone and in particular Gavin the chef. The only point we could think of for improvement was the signage for the car park.

The staff were great and service although the bathroom was tired and the food was good but value for money was not good. Green salad literally a bit of green lettuce in a bowl.

Lovely property, friendly staff, warm welcome. Visitors should be aware that the kitchen shuts at 6pm on a Sunday which surprised me. Otherwise, all very good.

We had a wonderful 4 night stay, our room was perfect, with a comfortable bed (better pillows would have been preferred). The staff were all very helpful and friendly, especially Dylan and Joe (who I believe was the manager). Their was another manager on duty for one day while we were there ("L"), I think her customer relations skills could do with some improvement! Overall, we had a really good visit and will certainly re-book should we be vising Cranleigh in the future. Keep up the good work!

I had a lovely stay at the Richard Onslow - from the moment I walked in I was made to feel welcome and that continued throughout my stay. My room was incredibly hot but that was understandable given the weather but I was given a fan which was worth its weight in gold. The room was clean and bed extremely comfortable. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would go back in a shot!

The room was clean and very convenient as it had an external door to the car park. The room was too hot, not helped by the towel radiator which always on. Not needed when the weather outside was 25⁰C. The staff were welcoming and helpful. We had breakfast in the moving of our departure which set us up for the rest of the day.
