This former Georgian coaching inn located in the picturesque village of Great Chesterford, just off the M11 motorway, features a garden and free parking.

A cooked full English breakfast is available at the property.

Well, this was the first time that I'd ever slept in a four-poster bed! It was amazing :D The room was decorated with nice furniture that matched the decor. The bathroom was amazing - I even treated myself to running a bath! The staff were lovely. I had time to sit and chat with one member of staff after dinner, having visited a local restaurant that he recommended. Breakfast was yummy and the staff were helpful and friendly. Would totally stay here again, especially as it's such a convenient location near Stansted Airport.

    I liked the quaint feeling and homely welcome in the hotel, the room was also well appointed and even though small never felt cramped. The breakfast was very nice, freshly cooked and the lady looking after breakfast was very nice.

    The history and the character of the property was amazing. Very central. No parking on site but parking is down a lane opposite, just a short walk and it’s cheap. The rooms were modern and clean, very comfortable. Bed was very comfortable. Water in the shower was hot.
