Reviews of The Kicking Dickey describe a friendly pub-with-rooms that’s convenient for Stansted Airport, offering simple, good-value accommodation with well-stocked in-room refreshments, but with occasional issues around bathroom upkeep, mattress comfort, and temperature control.
Guests frequently highlight smooth check-in and helpful service. Noise is usually limited once the pub closes, though some report disturbance from the garden or thin walls. On-site pub food is widely liked and reasonably priced, but breakfast is not provided. Expect a straightforward stopover close to Stansted.

We stayed before a morning flight and I would definitely stay again. You can arrive up to closing which is 11pm. We initially couldn’t find parking as there was a darts match on (Thursday for reference) but you could block people in and shift it later on. The room was spacious, beds comfortable, and the room had plenty of tea, coffee, UHT milk, sugar as well as shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body lotion. We slept very well. Once the pub is closed it’s very quiet.

The pub was lovely on the inside very clean and comfortable. Rooms were lovely like little cottages in the garden. Both our rooms were clean and comfortable. Plenty of coffee tea milk sugar on the welcome tray. Lovely towels and bedding. Really welcoming friendly staff. Good food at a decent price available. The only thing we didn't like was people standing in the open doorway smoking which is only a few feet away from the tables where we were eating so they might as well have been sitting at our table doing it

Sadly the stay wasnt as enjoyable as hoped. The mattresses we completely worn out to the point youd sink through the springs and onto the wooden board of the beds. We luckily went on a hot day so we could sleep ontop of the duvet for extra cushioning. The shower was stained red on the floor and there were obvious bits of mould around the shower cubicle too. The heater in the room didnt work (we tried for curiosity) and the shower we didnt use as it wasnt clean. Staff were friendly and helpful though and its a short bus ride away from the airport.

Very friendly and welcoming staff. There are three rooms in an annex behind the pub so you dont really get noise from the pub itself. Slept really well. Room was quite cold when i arrived and no heating on in the evening, which was a shame. Could do with switching heating on at this time of year. Bathroom bit mouldy in places but minimal. For the price i would say really good value.

Nice staff who were quick to show us to our room was great. Room was clean, well equipped with drinks. The bedding & towels were fresh. Water was hot for a shower so well appreciated. Lots of toiletries included which was a nice touch. Downside was the shower cubicle which had seen better days with both black & rust on it. The TV didn't work - it switched on but it couldn't find a digital aeriel - no big problem for one night's stay.

This is very much a local pub and a Karaoke night was in full swing when I arrived on a Sunday evening. That said, my room around the back of the pub was very quiet and I couldn't hear any noise. My single room was small but had everything I needed and was fine for a one night stay.

Beds lumpy but clean Ok for a night but nothing more Emailed to let them know as we left early but have been ignored Very average.

The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. There are a couple of hangers available for the clothes. The bedroom has a table with a TV. Coffee and tea were available with a kettle. There is a parking. Super convenient for early flights at Stansted airport.

I have stayed here 3 times. Lovely well equipped rooms. Plenty of tea and coffee. Very near the rest of the village for last minute shopping. Very convenient for the airport. Free parking on site. Excellent price.
