The personnel was nice and pleasant, and the host too. The double room was spotless, modern, with an excellent bathroom. Coffee/tea makers, flat-screen TV and a writing desk turned out to be good. We loved their FANTASTIC customer service.

small portions

overpriced menu

The fox inn is just lovely! The rooms were super spacious and the bathrooms were super clean. We loved the cozy ambiance with wood fires and the staff were so friendly. Breakfast was amazin, and those yorkshire puddings were to die for! It's a gem in such a quaint little village.

only downside was the food portions were kinda small n some things on the menu were over priced.

Spacious garden area, historical pub charm, easy access to M25

Cleanliness in the rooms could improve!!! The noise from the fridges is disruptive!!! Limited breakfast options do not meet expectations!!! Room decor feels significantly outdated!!!

quick service

comfortable dining area

A Hidden Culinary Gem!

Good experience! The dining area buzzed with comfort, and the vegetarian sausages stole the show- delicious! My partner loved the fish and chips, too. Pro tip, visit on a cooler day for a more pleasant atmosphere, as it can get warm inside. Will definitely be back!

lack of kids' menu

The kids loved playing darts at the pub! The spacious room was perfect for our family, and the bathroom was excellent too. Breakfast delivered to our room was fantastic, a standout moment of our stay!

In my wife's opinion, a kids' menu would be great.

cozy ambiance

homemade meals

charming, charming, charming

I had such a good time in my Standard Twin Room! The cozy ambiance, especially with those homemade meals bursting with flavor, I mean, that garlic and rosemary crusted lamb was a game changer! Plus, breakfast served by the owner herself? Talk about personalized service that warms the heart!

would recommend ❤️😊
