    Breakfast was excellent as always. Didn't use the restaurant this time as visiting family before Christmas. The whole village suffered a power cut so the restaurant was closed on one night but the manager contacted us to inform us of the problem....

    Excellent large room, large bed and very good bathroom. Comfortable seats to watch TV or read. Very good cooked breakfast, and a substantial Sunday Roast for evening meal Sunday.

    We asked for a quiet room and were located in the Coach house- room 17. Considering our stay included New Year’s Eve it was amazingly quiet. The bed was comfortable.
  • Nicholas

    The room was clean, tastefully decorated and comfortable. Situated in a very nice pub in a quiet village. The dining menus was wide, varied and very tasty. Chequers was perfect for a two-night stay and proved to be VFM par excellence.

    Love the pub, the rooms and the staff. This was our second trip since October and I think Sky recognised us. Delighted we had the same room as last time. Food was superb and the staff are all very welcoming. We will definitely be back.

    We stayed in the coach house whilst visiting the Chequers, what a lovely little buidling. The rooms are quite small but you will find everything you need and they are packed with character. The decor is lovely and we especially loved the exposed...
