"A unique, well appointed stopover with plenty of 1950s atmosphere."

8.0

The nostalgic motoring theme, consistently evident in a well-planned, unique accommodation, with high quality fittings. The self-service breakfast suited our needs, and it was quiet, apart from the aircraft from Stansted flying over, but that stopped while we slept. It was good to be able to view the array of Morgans, so beautifully maintained. Self-check-in was well explained by text, and although we didn’t get to meet our host, we felt we had been well looked after.

"Beautiful, comfortable art-deco classic car themed hotel, close to Sawbridgeworth and river paths."

10.0

Beautiful art-deco classic car themed hotel. Although I'm not a classic car enthusiast, it was still lovely. Alot of thought had gone into the look of the place and into creating a comfortable environment for guests. The large kitchen was self-service- it was like a home from home, but better (!) with everything you needed for breakfast, tea/cofee and snacks . The owner couldn't be there but called me ahead of time to let me know, give me instructions and he arranged for his daughter to greet me. The ensuite was spacious, comfortable and clean, with the decor in keeping with the theme and every thing I needed for a comfortable night's sleep. There was a book with local information, including recommendations for eating out and take aways, Menus and local taxi-cabs. After a hard day's running from Cheshunt on wild footpaths, it was just what I needed! I would definitely recommend and stay again.

A bit of a walk up from from the river path, and a cab or car needed to the nearest place to eat, but that was nothing to do with the hotel, which I couldn't fault.

"Not a bad place to stop off but not great if you don’t have a car"

5.0

Lovely kitchen that was well stocked for breakfast

The bed was a bit uncomfortable and the windows were in the ceiling - the road noise and planes kept me awake. Also we got the train which meant a taxi ride - there is nowhere to eat locally so taxi bills soon rack up going out and back to the station - one way from the station was 12 quid.

Dry clean nicely decorated room. Excellent bed and bathroom.

Having to make my own breakfast. We’ve traveled all over the world staying in all sorts of accommodation but this is the first time we’ve had to do this - and I hope the last.
