The Chequers

This is an excellent hotel/inn. Very convenient for the local wedding venues, especially convenient for Coltsfoot Retreat. The rooms are very comfortable and cosy, they are tastefully decorated and finished to a high standard. The breakfast is excellent, very generous, well prepared and presented, exactly what is needed the morning after the night before.

We stayed here to attend a nearby wedding. The staff were very helpful. The room was absolutely lovely. Have the toiletries you need and tea/coffee. Lovely comfy bed and a really nicely decorated room. All in all, would highly recommend

Lovely small hotel Felt like home.

Lovely spacious room, good shower and very comfortable stay with all we needed except no breakfast was provided which we did know about. We found a lovely cafe down the road.

Friendly staff. But hotel is on a busy cross roads so a bit noisy. Room was okay but a bit tatty.

Not a bad venue but.. rooms are showing need of decoration and getting tired, Air conditioning either didnt work or was set in a way that the room was still boiling and tiny window offered no respite. There is an obvious disregard for the regulations and L8 water regulations obviously not followed by the amount of scale present on the shower heads, and portable appliance testing well overdue. Resteraunt was overpriced & mediocre, still stuck in past serving on unhygienic wooden platters which the waiting struggle with so much server dropped chips all over table which really wasn't her fault.

What a great place to stay. Super spacious room, really welcoming staff and so clean. Price was a bargain and the restaurant food looked amazing sad that we had to leave early and before breakfast

Excellent hotel with great staff ....great value for money

Excellent room spacious clean and modern

I have unfortunately negative views about this property mostly based on poor communication about the 'included' breakfast (shown throughout my Expedia booking) which was one of the main reasons we chose this hotel. On arrival we were told that breakfast is only provided on Saturday and Sunday mornings because of a lack of staff. This obviously mean that our bookings were misleading as they stated that breakfast was included. The result was that we paid for something that was 'included' but then had to travel the next morning to find somewhere suitable to eat together for breakfast. Not great from the Chequers who presumably had not updated their details with Expedia. Expedia tried to contact the property afterwards but apparently they were unable to speak to anyone. Seriously? There is also nobody on any front desk at all, or even in the property overnight so I am not sure what would happen in the event of an emergency. And finally the bathroom in my room clearly had not been cleaned properly - the bath mat was dirty and looked used, and the toilet also did not look properly cleaned. Obviously after returning late there was no one to talk to about this. Not a nice experience.

Bathroom was not ready with toilets unclean and without second row of toilets tissue

Our room was facing the main road which was fairly noisy. The double bed was comfortable but small. The decor looked rather shabby particularly in the bathroom. The restaurant food was expensive for the quality of food on offer.

Excellent, friendly staff. Lovely large room, with grear amenities. Breakfast was fantastic - recommend the Eggs Royale!

Our stay at The Chequers was comfortable and the location was perfect for the wedding we were attending. The beds were so comfortable and the refreshments provided were excellent. We were disappointed that there was no breakfast available but fortunately the price of the room was reduced after speaking to the hosts. We found a lovely café in the town for breakfast which was great. The only improvement I would ask for is a bit better communication regarding check out and using the 24 hour access which was a fire escape, which was difficult for our family member with mobility issues. We felt that we had to ask for information rather than it being readily available or being communicated on check in. But mainly a great stay and we wouldreturn.

We enjoyed our stay

We stayed here whilst attending a wedding at Coltsfoot Country Retreat and were so pleased with the facilities, parking, friendly staff, and the comfortable, spacious room. The breakfast included was delicious - the full English was huge! If we were needing somewhere to stay in the area again we would definitely visit again.

The room was fantastic. Spacious and well stocked, although there were only 2 sets of towels and the room had been booked for 3. The bathroom was huge. However, having booked bed and breakfast, we were told on arrival that they no longer served breakfast and this would be reflected in the price, but there was a cafe down the road. Not ideal when travelling with a child. Food was good, but £13.50 for a glass of wine is excessive. Check out was confusing, as I hadn’t yet paid for the hotel I waited until check out time, 11.00 to leave. No one was there to pay, I tried calling, but no answer so had to send a message asking them to call me for payment. When I got home I checked my credit card statement to find payment had been taken without telling me, and no receipt offer. Also because the pub wasn’t open we had to leave via their 24 hour access which is a metal fire escape. Not ideal with a suitcase. I have yet to hear back from them regarding the message I sent. A shame because the room was lovely.

2night stay at the Chequers, comfortable spacious room. Evening meal in the pub below very nice. Facilities good, only down side was no breakfast, but other than that would definitely use again.

Nice inn. Great room. Tasty breakfast and supper
