Horwood House Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay. All the staff were excellent, professional, friendly and welcoming. Special mention for the team in Harry’s Bar and Restaurant. They were all excellent and the food was delicious!! We took our Jack Russell puppy with us and were a bit concerned after reading some of the reviews but from our experience this is a great hotel to take dogs. They’re welcome everywhere but the spa and all the staff made a fuss of him."

Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Ampthill cost?

Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
When is the most affordable time to visit Ampthill?
The most affordable time to visit Ampthill is typically during the off-peak seasons, specifically late autumn (November) and late winter (February to early March), outside of school holidays and major public holidays. During these periods, you'll generally find lower prices on accommodation and potentially better deals on travel.

Solo travellers looking for value will appreciate that these months often see fewer tourists, leading to a more relaxed atmosphere and easier access to local attractions without the crowds. While the weather might be cooler, Ampthill and its surrounding areas still offer plenty to explore, such as walks in Ampthill Great Park or visits to local independent shops, many of which remain free or low-cost.

For couples, travelling in the shoulder months of April/May or September/October can also offer a good balance of pleasant weather and reasonable prices, though these might be slightly higher than the deep off-peak. You can enjoy the town's charm, explore nearby Woburn Abbey and Safari Park (check for off-peak discounts), and dine at local pubs without the peak season premiums.
Is Ampthill a budget-friendly destination?
Yes, Ampthill is a budget-friendly destination, particularly for those seeking a charming, historic English town experience without the high costs of larger cities.

For solo travellers and couples, accommodation can be found at reasonable prices, especially if booking guesthouses or independent hotels slightly outside the immediate town centre. Ampthill is relatively compact, making it easy to get around on foot, saving on transport costs.

Much of Ampthill's appeal lies in its free attractions. Visitors can enjoy leisurely strolls through Ampthill Great Park, explore the ruins of Ampthill Castle, or wander through the town's historic streets and market square without spending a penny. Dining is also affordable, with several traditional pubs and cafes offering good value meals and local ale.
