The King's Head Inn - The Inn Collection Group | Book like an insider

What guests think

Across recent reviews, The King's Head Inn - The Inn Collection Group is praised for its friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and scenic setting near Roseberry Topping, making it a popular stop for walkers and short countryside breaks.

Most guests enjoy the pub food and cooked-to-order breakfasts, though a few found meals bland and breakfast service slow with limited gluten free choices. Rooms range from cosy and spacious to dated or awkward, with reports of noise from the road or other guests, temperature swings in some conservatory rooms, draughty windows, and patchy Wi-Fi. Cleanliness is usually strong, but isolated complaints mention uncleared breakfast tables and mould in one shower. Expect a traditional inn experience with more charm than uniformity.

One night stay which was fairly expensive for a small room. The toilet was difficult to flush and the sink plug did not fit. Staff was good and breakfast had a wide choice made to order; dinner also had a variety of interesting choices. The entrance to the car park was very narrow and on a busy road. Hotel had charm and was historic though, its situation was excellent.

The inn and accommodation block are well planned out and very well maintained to a modern standard. The evening and breakfast menu offer a local twist to familiar dishes. Roseberry Topping Hill just behind the pub must be conquered. The route is a challenge but the view is amazing.

What a great stay at the Kings Head. The room was lovely with a four poster bed, very clean and comfortable. It is dog friendly, and Lottie our Dandie Dinmont was very well looked after by the amazing staff in the bar, she was even treated to her own breakfast! Would highly recommend.

Lovely country location and busy pub with good range of food including game. Chain rather than individually run. Minimal or no wifi, especially in the bedrooms. Good breakfast. Bedroom in the conservatory very cold which meant the bed felt damp so avoid if possible. Plenty of hot water in the morning though.

Very disappointing. We booked an allegedly Superior Room (room 2). It is a converted conservatory. The roof is glass, covered by ill-fitting blinds, so the room is constantly lit by the outside lights at night - the large car park floodlights were on all night, as were the footpath lights. it is also noisy when it rains, as it is a glass roof. The room is also noisy as it is right next to the front door, with people coming back to rooms from the pub, and on our second morning the deli delivery man arrived at 7.00am whistling and banging as he made his delivery to the pub. The electrics in the room were potentially very dangerous, as the bedroom light sockets were falling apart!! Neither bedside lamps were functional, but you could move around the room ok at night because it was well enough lit from the car park supertrooper lights! The shower had a lot of black mould round the base... Not a great experience I'm afraid.

Dirty tables not cleared away which had to sit on as none were clean. No glasses to have juice. No fruit salad left. Only 1 man serving so service very slow. Won’t visit again.

Lovely charming hotel in a great location. Staff were very friendly and the breakfast and overall service was fantastic as it always is at the Inn Collection Group of hotels ( this was our 8th stay in one of their hotels). The only negative at this hotel was the windows in our bedroom and bathroom were very draughty (it’s an old building) and more noticeable as it was very windy outside. The windows could do with some secondary glazing/insulation.
