Extremely personable landlord, Craig. Room was prepared ready for us to check in early (off to a wedding after a long drive) and sandwiches provided on request which was very much appreciated. The room and bathroom were spacious and nicely decorated and the bed very comfortable. Little communal kitchen area provided everything needed for a late night snack and breakfast which was a nice touch. Heard from local friends at the wedding that the food is great too. Favourite beer on tap which sadly we had no time to sample. There will be a next time! Highly recommend.

The Black Horse was gem in a nice country setting. Craig was a great host, plenty of walking trails around the area. Tuesday was steak night (compliments to the chef it was fantastically done!) An impromptu gathering of locals forming a shanty group was a fun and unique experience. Craig pours a good pint of Guinness which is a bonus! Room was spacious and tidy with my own private bathroom, kitchenet with continental breakfast. Craig was on hand if I needed anything! Would recommend and will be stopping again when in the area for work.

Lovely food in the evening. But the rooms had no TV, advertised as having them but not in rooms? This would help to improve the customers experience we feel.

Beautiful bedroom very large and spacious, as was the en-suite shower room. The bed and bedding were excellent and I had a wonderful nights sleep. The water in the shower was hot and a good pressure. However the flush for the toilet was not working. I would also recommend the owners supply bedside lights as there were none and the main light switch was over by the door. A kettle and teabags/coffee were provided in the room but no milk or water. I would also recommend a fresh homemade loaf be available for breakfast rather than the brown sliced loaf in plastic. With a few small editions it could be excellent.

Did a late booking for a business trip. Great service by staff who contacted me and explained the self check in process as I arrived in the late evening. Accommodated a late change I made and were very helpful. Beautifully renovated property with lots of parking, spacious room with good amenities and comfy bed and bedding. Spotlessly clean room and bathroom. Highly recommended for business or pleasure!!!

Beyond the exquisitely accommodating staff was a community that took us in and made us feel welcome. You would not believe the true tales of generosity so we won’t share them. Trust us that the people of the Black Horse and Brent Pelham will make you feel like a treasured guest. Our recommendation knows no bounds.

Breakfast was self serve up by the rooms but worked fine. No toiletries in the bathroom to shower in the morning . No TV but that did not bother me. Quite a nice change. Lovely pub with a roaring log fire and nice dinner menu in a very cute village Good parking on site

Lovely country pub, with beautifully decorated rooms. Staff were welcoming and food good value. The rooms could be imroved by having somewhere to put your clothes, even a chair or a hanger on a coat rack, but ours ended up on the floor. There was a hairdryer under the sink in the shared kitchen, but I would prefer one in the room. I would also prefer tea/coffee making facilities in the room, rather than walking down the corridor to make a drink in the shared kitchen. The continental breakfast was good, and was left in the shared kitchen, but a tray would have been useful to carry it back to the room. There are no TVs in the room, which is unusual. I would check they are serving food when you are staying. Its a great pub, and I would stay again.

A very comfortable country pub, with great food, top chef and well kept beer. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. My room was a tad small and basic but the bathroom was modern and hey this is a 16th century building and I enjoyed my stay.

Met with a friendly welcome and shown to our room. Whilst we had our own bathroom it was down the corridor from our room. Not a problem at all but unexpected. Food served in the pub is excellent and has a nice beer garden. The pub was very busy when we arrived and had to park a bit down the road but I moved the car into the main car park later in the day. Continental breakfast is available and just help yourself, this suited us. Nice pub and room. Would recommend.

Super welcoming staff - really made a difference. This is a great place to stay if you’re flying to/from Stansted as it’s a far pleasant experience than the airport hotels. It was so lovely that I’d book a weekend break there to explore the local area more.

The Pub was a grade 2 listed building which was a 1700 era the best way to describe it is Quirky! . The internal pub area was full of history and upstairs the rooms fixtures and fitting new with the decoration being fresh but sympathetic to the age of the building. the food was good Pub Grub and the cooked breakfast was great Full English or Full Scottish Both filling and well cooked, served piping hot! Lovely outside area and caters for Dogs.
