I often stay here for work & always feel warm & welcomed. The food is great as is the service. Rooms are a great size, really comfortable with luxurious extras. Warm in the winter which is always welcomed. Theres also plenty of parking. Theres nothing I don't like about this place & highly recommend it to everyone - don't stay in a charmless chain hotel, stay at the Tuckled Trout for a memorable stay. ##### Sarah Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard 30 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Recharge very relaxing and lovely breakfast ##### Richard Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ian 31 Mar 2025 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Honest review disappointed Lovely rooms, very friendly staff. Great breakfast, no cereals or cold buffet. The food in the restaurant was very disappointing. After reading previous mixed reviews. Over priced 2 dishes were inedible. Unfortunately the food is no where near as good as it used to be. ##### Ian Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris 24 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Single night stop-over, but will return.... Another relaxing, stress-free stay. As a family we've been very lucky to be able to stay here for a second occasion. The room is spacious, clean and essentially luxurious. The staff are attentive, friendly and polite. The food is fantastic. As a family stop-over it may appear to be a little pricey, but when you consider the location, the luxury, the food, the parking and the hospitality, it's great value. Heartily recommended. ##### Chris Stayed 1 night in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter 10 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The best of the best. My wife and I have been driving around the UK for 2 weeks and found The Tickled Trout to be the best we’ve had. Spotless, The Bed was soo comfortable, Great shower, and the Roast in the restaurant was amazing. We were greeted at check in by Charlie and his female off sider, who both came out to the car park and helped with the baggage. We were taken to our room and shown about. When we went down to the restaurant for dinner, Charlie and the female staff member ( sorry don’t know her name) were there to greet us, and serve our delicious meals and drinks. The friendly atmosphere of the pub is what I will always remember. I cannot recommend this place enough. ![The best Yorkshire pudding ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/323B379C3AFDF5F44D2FE4C446DC81DD0C6B2D1F1718046936971.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ali 1 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Lovely pub/restaurant/ hotel , room was comfortable and clean food was a very good standard and the atmosphere was very relaxed , would stay again ##### Ali Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ADRIAN 25 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent place to stay ##### ADRIAN Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lee 26 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great stay in a lovely pub set in the kent countryside close to the medway.
