Food marketed as fine however just average pub grub, house wine pretty awful too!

The landlord and staff were superb. They have very good food in their restaurant with plenty of variety. I used te hotel as a base for exploring the neighbouring area and the friendly staff helped greatly with suggestions. It took me 25 mins to get into Cambridge city centre and it is very close to Newmarket for the racing. I would thoroughly recommend staying here instead of a standard hotel chain. It is well worth the slightly longer commute time for the experience. My room was spotless and comfortable and everything worked , and I was able to come and go as I pleased. Excellent. ##### C Stone ### 8/10 Good #### Andrew, Notts Feb 10, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Golden Boar Great hotel, good room and the food is fantastic. Only complaint was the shower was poor regarding the flow coming out ##### Andrew ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Oct 26, 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### English Inn/Pub Excellent stay.

The Pub advertises that it was built in 1540, the first in Suffolk County. OK, it is fair to say it is not a new property! The restaurant is upscale (posh) and is excellent. I had breakfast and dinner there and enjoyed it thoroughly. But I was disappointed in the cleanliness of my room, and the lumpy bed. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 12, 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jun 1, 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Heathrow Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Slough-Hotels-Heathrow-Windsor-Marriott-Hotel.h3830.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Greenway-Hotel-Spa.h520203.Hotel-Information) > > [Muskoka Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Muskoka-Bay-Resort.h49036339.Hotel-Information) > > [The Porch House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Porch-House.h4595892.Hotel-Information) > > [The Belfry](https://www.expedia.ca/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Belfry.h3976.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.ca/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Toronto - North York by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Toronto-North-York.h34380.Hotel-Information) > > [Burgh Island Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingsbridge-Hotels-Burgh-Island-Hotel.h34611055.Hotel-Information) > > [Millcroft](https://www.expedia.ca/Penrith-Hotels-Millcroft.h26994538.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London-Gatwick Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Horley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Gatwick-Airport.h16918.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Hull Marina by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hull-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hull-Marina.h10609.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Seattle (SEA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/sea/toronto-to-seattle) > > [Flights from Montreal](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/178288/flights-from-montreal) > > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to NYC-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/nyc/toronto-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Houston (IAH) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/iah/yyz/houston-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Florence (FLR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/flr/montreal-to-florence) > > [Flights from Shanghai (PVG) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/pvg/yyz/shanghai-to-toronto) ### Cars ### Packages ### General
