"Just about the grubbiest room we’ve ever stayed in! The pub displays 4 star AA and Visit England signs even though it’s no longer listed with either organisation and having stayed there, I can see why! Immediately outside the front door of our room, there was litter, big weeds and cobwebs on the door frame. Things didn’t improve inside. It was a bit like going back to the 80’s, probably the last time someone properly cleaned the room as well. Mouldy blind in the window, dingey lighting from 3 old fashioned wooden wall lamps with shades that were covered in dust and cobwebs. Artex flaking off the ceiling in the shower, the top of some of the skirting in the bathroom was actually black with dirt and dust. Every nozzle of the shower head was blocked with limescale. Pointless plant holders with cheap plastic plants on all the walls which were all covered in dust and best of all a dirty tissue and half eaten chocolate bar on the floor under the bed. Lumpy old pillows with no protectors on and we didn’t dare look under the sheet at the mattress. Useless makeshift desk/dresser as there wasn’t enough light to use the mirror and no plug socket near it for a hairdryer or laptop. The same low standards seemed to follow through in the rest of the pub. Manky looking old wooden furniture in the beer garden with broken parasols just lying around. There was a condiments station with all sauces etc. but that all appeared to be left out, uncovered, all night so god knows what local wildlife may have been crawling over it! Breakfast in the dingey and cluttered dining room was passable. Good selection of cereal, but no fruit. Cooked breakfast was OK, but tasted like cheap bacon and sausages from the cash’n’carry, certainly not described as ‘local’ anyway. Tea was awful as the waitress just filled up the pot from the coffee machine so water wasn’t boiling. We switched to coffee, which was passable. Dinner menu very limited, especially if you don’t like chips. Very basic pub food, but the fish and chips were perfectly edible. On the plus side, it’s a really lovely area, with plenty of footpaths so we went for a lovely long walk to reduce the amount of time we had to spend in our room. No way we'd stay here again."

Stayed here for four nights whilst working nearby. The room was clean and the ensuite bathroom had a bath with a shower over it. Breakfast was serve yourself cereal, toast, fruit and yoghurt. My room was not serviced during my entire stay, Which I found very surprising. Rooms: 3 Service: 3 Location: 4

This is my favorite British pub of all time. It is a fantastic countryside pub with a long history, serving delicious hand-pulled ales and great food. The large fireplace with bench seats is the ideal spot to drink their amazing ales on cold nights. It doesn't get any better than this for a countryside pub. I would visit every night if there wasn't an ocean between us. The drive to this pub is definitely worth it.

My wife and I have visited this restaurant multiple times, and she has been even more often. This place is exactly what you would expect from a typical country pub. They offer a nice selection of real ales such as Brocket Bitter and Sharp's Doom Bar. The bar food is simple, reasonably priced (for a country pub in Hertfordshire), and usually well-prepared. They also have a slightly pricier restaurant, although I have not tried it yet. The area around the restaurant boasts some lovely walks, including visits to a few charming churches and Shaw's Corner. I would definitely recommend stopping by for a couple of drinks.
