Having now read the other reviews, all I can say personally, is our stay was Excellent. Together with another couple, my wife & I stayed at the 'White Hart' for two nights over the New Year period. The Manager, whom I know only as Steve is far the best 'Old English Inn' manager we have met.(and we have stayed at... More

We used The White Hart as we were in Essex for a wedding. Upon arrival the duty manager was very helpful and welcoming. Just what you need after travelling from Devon. All the staff were friendly and the rooms were functional and priced well for what you got. The only negatives were that the smoking area was directly below the... More

Had a couple of enjoyable nights here - although, as has been stated in earlier reviews, the building is badly in need of a refurbishment & redec.

All the staff at the hotel worked very hard and were keen to ensure we enjoyed our three night stay. We were visiting family so just needed a place to sleep. The room needed a complete revamp. The bathroom was very tired and the door would not stay shut. The wardrobe door would also not stay shut and the carpets... More

Lovely hotel in excellent central location with high quality food and some of the most attentive and professional staff I have experienced in some time. If you get to stay in the original part of the hotel you will be treated to its historic charms. The menu is extensive and public rooms comfortable but the most impressive aspect for me... More

Our room was clean,with lovely comfy beds,but the the bathroom was very sad.and the toilet in dire need of a good bleaching. The staff were... More

Bathroom is very small, shower curtains need to be replaced, grouting on tiles dirty. No Air conditioning in Bedrooms, windows need to be kept opened in Summer to enable sleep but the smoking area is just outside most... More
