It is unable to access and honour previous bookings from this site. So when booking on this site you won’t be booking a place to stay. Luckily they had one room left for us. But there are little other accommodation options in the area, so be careful. ##### Nicole Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacqui 28 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a wonderful stay at The Chequers in Lamberhurst for our wedding anniversary.

A fantastic find . the manager (Caroline) couldn’t have been any better . Amazing service , great choice of drinks . I had the burger for evening meal and it was “banging” a great meal . The lib is set in a beautiful little village backing on to a small water feature . Plenty of parking and good wifi . Shower in the room was lovely .

Room was lovely - bed super comfy. Nice touches of decent shampoo/ shower gel etc. And I don't think I saw on the listing, but a TV with access to Netflix etc. Good location for going to walks / biking. There's a public footpath right next to the pub and a few biking options a short drive away. Breakfast was delicious. We ate in the pub both nights, food was lovely and service was great. And on the Saturday night was treated to a brilliant local jazz band. All round great, friendly service from the team. Would definitely recommend. ##### Louise Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Phil 21 Jun 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Staff were pleasant, the Pub was a bit run down but comfy, but the most annoying thing was they removed half the menu at a moments notice, just as we sat down to order, this resulted in us walking half a mile away and having a meal at another pub spending in excess of a £150.00. sorry would not recommend, shame . ##### Phil Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Clare 12 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service ##### Clare Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andrew 1 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness ##### Andrew Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Bryan 9 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Bryan Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jackie 17 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Jackie Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ##
