The first thing I need to say here is that my wife and I stayed here for two nights and we paid £60 per night, for the room for two of us, with an EXCELLENT freshly cooked breakfast!!
I have taken this into account when submitting my review. I really think some of the previous critics ignore these simple facts.
The food in the restaurant is excellent! The Real Ale behind the bar is excellent! The host, John, is a great guy who seeks to please!
Yes the rooms are basic, but very clean! The furniture does not necessarily match but it does everything you need. The bed was incredibly comfortable. In a freezing December it was lovely and warm.
No, it's not the Holiday Inn or a Marriott so you won't get points on your card but you will get fantastic value in a family run establishment where they seek to please.
I stayed there as I was attending a wedding at Burghley House as a professional photographer www.jcfphotography.co.uk. It is very convenient for Burghley House and as it is on the edge of Stamford you do not pay the ridiculous prices some establishments demand.
If you enjoy very good value and don't require all the unnecessary frills of a chain or upmarket hotel give it a try.
