10/10 Exceptional

Lovely little find! We stayed there as we were going to a gig at Audley End. The staff were extremely friendly, very helpful in organising our taxi to and from the gig. Foodwise, we enjoyed a lovely lunch outside and the breakfast the next morning was delicious (perfect after the festivities at Audley End). Very reasonably priced, clean rooms. Would definitely stay again and will be telling all my friends!

Country pub only 20 minutes from Stansted, good location for early flights. Rooms were good, beds were really comfortable and good shower. We left before breakfast started at 8am, and heard several leaving before us so it would be nice if there was a to go option of a breakfast bar, yogurt, piece of fruit etc.
