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.

Dreadfull, dont go!

We were awoken around 6.15 with an almighty clattering noise. Apparently they were restocking the cellar, metal barrels going down a ramp into the cellar, directly below our room! Im honestly lost for words, what kind of hotel does that. Speaking with the people doing it didnt get them to stop and when i went looking for staff they were conspicuous by their absence.

Extremely Old Character Pub full of Olde world atmosphere delightful.Very friendly Locals Cottage style bedroom ,but very Old fashioned Shower , ,basin & a Old Fashioned Toilet with a chipped toilet seat such a shame as we do like Modern showers etc these days , but appreciate it’s expensive to refurbish them. Dinner was good no fast food served there , but only a small continental breakfast on offer .in the morning. Great location wry quite lovely Village with Bernard Shaws house to visit , providing you ore book.

The accommodation is typical of an old pub but the bed was comfortable and the shower was fine. Staff were very helpful and we enjoyed the continental breakfast and good evening meals. Parking is very limited, especially when the pub is open and although you can park on the road outside this gets very full too. The area is picturesque and you can do some nice walks. The roads around are winding single track lanes with passing places. Local taxis are available but are expensive.

Country Pub stay

This pub is in the middle of nowhere and therefore we woke up to the sound of birds, not traffic! The breakfast was the best I have ever had. The bed was super comfortable and the bed linen was very good quality along with the large shower towels. The room would benefit from a hanging rail which would fit behind the door. The shower was a bit odd but worked ok. The cubicle would benefit from a wall 'basket' which could hold gel, shampoo etc. We enjoyed our stay and would come again if in the area. The landlady was very friendly and obviously worked hard.

Comfortable bed, very good breakfast but bathroom needs an update and attention round the edges. Basic accommodation but comfortable and staff friendly. A lovely English breakfast with orange juice and tea. I would stay again but don’t expect pristine.

Work trip

Had a lovely stay, staff were very pleasant and efficient. Room was comfortable and clean. But bathroom seemed a little dated. Pub was very nice, food was excellent, would happily stay again. Much nicer than a trip to a soulless purple prison (premier inn).
