Staff brilliant. Food excellent value for money. Room huge and characterful. Excellent position to visit town.

Whole place could do with a lick of paint but we had to think hard to put anything in this box.

"Good overnght stop - great for exploring Halstead"

7.0

An old pub - albeit Green King, excellent staff, nice room perfectly adequate for my needs, comfortable bed, and with off road parking. Good breakfast.

Steep steps, possibly not so good for customers with accessibility issues - maybe there other rooms more suitable. It’s a historic building.
