The stay was great. To say it was old is an understatement, 700 years is the oldest I've ever stayed in and the condition the owners have maintained is brilliant. If you're looking for a historical twee experience, go for this.
The cost of the hotel and meals is inexpensive and good quality, the breakfast basic continental but Ok.
We loved it.

Very friendly and helpful staff. The room was clean and tidy and perfect for our one night stay. Breakfast was good and the offer of extra tea or coffee was very welcome. The location was very quiet and tranquil

It was a beautiful period room, the pub downstairs looked amazing, we got in quite late so it had stopped serving food sadly. Really quiet over night and a beautiful location. I will be returning with more time!

Dared room
The staff were very friendly .
Room was dated and had cobwebs too.
One of the bulbs on the ceiling light lamp was precariously hanging.

Great country pub serving good pub food, easy car parking, quiet location, not a problem for me but pub closes at 20:30
If you like chain hotels this place is not for you 😆

Brocket Arms
The Brocket Arms overnight stay was really good.
The staff and locals were nice & chatty whilst sitting next to a large natural fire place eating lovely food and taking a well earned drink.
Would of preferred a full breakfast instead of a continental one but all told, I found it a lovely and relaxing stay.

We enjoyed staying at the Brocket Arms for weekend. The room was clean and comfortable and equipped with what we needed (kettle, water, wardrobe and desk/dressing table as well as TV and en suite shower room). The room was modern but retained its 16th century character with exposed beams in the bedroom. We especially enjoyed the food which was high quality, well cooked 'pub fayre' (steak, sausage and mash, fish and chips and a good selection of 'proper' puddings) and breakfast was excellent too. There are opportunities for some lovely walks both in the immediate vicinity and beyond and the B&B is convenient for wider travel in the area while being situated in a charming village.
