Very Good

Primarily chosen as it was near to an event we were attending at the Nene Valley Railway (a short drive from the pub). We liked that the accommodation was in a separate building to the pub (although the pub was not loud). Good breakfast, evening meals, and friendly staff. We have a lovely walk around the village one evening, went back following day to try the local tea rooms but they closed early which was a shame. Will definitely stay here again
Quite basic but roomy chalet/rooms xcellent shower owner Harriet and staff Nicole only too happy to help lovely little village 👌

Great Pie
Pleasant staff on arrival nice and prompt attention, lovely surroundings outside. Comfortable room with great corner bath for much needed relax. Most excellent steak pie for supper. All positive, only negative would be poor wifi connection booster required i would suggest . Nevertheless great stay for business travelling
Lovely country pub, with easily accessible rooms with motel-style parking. Only negative with our room (7) was the rain shower with a silly design, no chance of a shower without getting your hair wet - not always ideal for ladies! But nice with a walk-in shower! The cooked breakfast was great.

Weekend stay
Have stayed a few times over the years, the room was nice, but could do with a make over, and the shower needs something doing with it, it isn't a walk in shower, more like a climb in. Food in the restaurant was delicious, even though there wasn't a big choice, it was all delicious, the chef even made fresh apple sauce for one of the party. Hopefully next time we stay, we will see a difference min the room

Needs updating asap!!!
Staff lovely people and the owner. Can’t fault that. The rooms and back of pub. My god needs a good upgrade. Didn’t sleep much at all. I felt dirty. Smell in room not nice. Room 4 boiler in room loud and cold room.
Stay many places always about for business. Booked this short notice on the reviews being 8.5.
I didn't experience 8.5 service!
On arrival place fully locked up, sign on the door, list of names, room numbers and keys in each door. Help yourself attitude to the letter and list.
I had room 7. Cleanish but a strong damp musty smell. Damp in the walls I suspect, carpet rotting or breaking up. Bit run down in places generally.
I paid extra £10 a morning for breakfast. No where near worth the money, terrible service at breakfast as well.
Evening meal is ok but not much choice, expect to have something with chips!
Bed was comfortable seemed clean and the location means it's quiet here. Those being the main bonus to this stay.
Free parking free WiFi also a bonus.
When I mentioned my experience I was told they've just been taken over. All prior reviews are for the previous owners / business operator.
So beaware things could get better or be just as bad.
Look at my photos as proof
First time in the area, what a pleasant surprise.
Convenient room, a little tired around the edges but didn't detract from the stay.
Breakfast very tasty.
Certainly on the list of places to explore further.
A comfortable stay here . Rooms are behind the pub a motel style room ... Everything I needed ...clean comfortable . Tea making facilities.
Plenty of free parking.
Pub excellent for food and real ale.
beds were comfortable though it was a bit hot with the quilt on. room was a bit dark. could do with another window. internet was good. plenty of space in the room. enough for 3 of us. though the toilet door wasnt lockable, the bathroom door would open if someone opened the front door. grounds were lovely just needs a little tlc. didnt take any photos of room

I could hear rats or mice scuttling in the ceiling at night. Food all tasted microwaved/defrosted, hair in the food. Would not recommend.
The room was cold and somewhat dated. Could not run a full bath as not enough hot water, no shower to use as an alternative. I was a solo traveller in a double room so no way could two people have had a bath.
WiFi was virtually non existent and no phone signal at all so a poor location if you are on business.
On a positive the staff were grand the breakfast was okay
The pub picture looks inviting and the price was afordable. The bathroom was pretty basic and mouldy. The bed was ok but nothing like standard hotels. That said the price was a bit cheaper. Everything else was good and the staff were very helpful
We stayed at Queen's Head for a weekend and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The family room was clean and comfortable. Although it is a bit dated, it was cosy and warm. The staff were nice, and breakfast was also very good.
Fairly basic accommodation in a lodge bedroom en suite. The bedroom felt slightly damp and it and the bathroom were a little tired. The bathroom would have benefited from a deep clean and was dated. Parking was immediately outside the room. Breakfast was fine, but lacked items such as muesli and fresh fruit. The staff were friendly and helpful. Overall the place needs some investment and modernisation. We wiould not be keen to repeat the experience!
