Three of us for Sunday lunch, was a bit concerned as it was 1pm and nearly empty, asked for the beef to be rare, was all over cooked, luke warm gravy, cauliflower cheese cold sent it all back a disaster, paid for our drinks and left. Will say that the young girls serving were excellent. Would not recommend or go back.

Been to this hotel many times. Buckden is a nice place. We were visiting friends. Hotel seemed to be struggling since the pandemic. We stayed 3 nights. Did not get cleaned on first night. Perhaps struggling for staff.

Dont waste your money ! Awful place to stay!!!!!!|Looked inviting but it was bloody freezing!|The Staff were great 🙏|Room-comfy bed, clean sheets but freezing cold. Had to get a heater because radiators were off.|Bathroom- Clean but no hot …

An absolutely grim experience, booked in for two nights, left after one. Room tired, housekeeping shoddy, bar with sticky tables and floors, I can’t even bring myself to describe breakfast. How this can be described as a hotel is beyond me, I’m assuming none of the owners or staff have ever stayed in a hotel. Best just to avoid.

I booked this hotel for a two night stay on business, only to find that on a Monday and Tuesday they close the bar and restaurant areas at 09:00. On the first night I had my meal and purchased a drink at the bar, I then went to sit down the bar area only to be advised that I and the other guests would have to go to our rooms to finish our drinks this was at 09:00. Also in the morning my breakfast was cooked by the waitress and not a qualified chief. The food was bland both in the evening and at breakfast.... I cancelled my second night and all my future bookings x 5. There loss and my gain. This is no way to treat paying guests.

It was like a episode of Gordon Ramsey kitch nightmares! Burger was nasty, I really can't remember another time I did not actually finish a burger and I did have an appetite. The wings came with a weird thick batter that warm on the outside and refrigerator cold in the middle. The chef obviouly does not care about standreds and more importantly the basics of food safety don't eat here!!!

We had a lovely Sunday lunch with my family, there was about 16 of us, a few vegetarians, GF and we all catered for with enough choice to satisfy all. The roasts were fabulous, beautiful fluffy roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings and the …

They advertised two vegetarian meals but had none. My wife then asked for Sunday lunch without the meat. When it arrived the had 2 slices of carrot, 4 old looking soft roast potatoes, one very small broccoli, a burnt Yorkshire pudding and gravy that smelt of old musty socks. My friend and I had fish and chips which was not great as the fish was soggy. His wife had a chicken roast which was similar quality as my wife’s meal. The waitress was great a it’s not her fault but the manger, which was no place to be seen should get a new chef, perhaps a new manager is needed. Now we know why we were the only ones in that restaurant on a Sunday.

We stayed for 2 nights and had a meal both nights. The meals were great and the price came in under £50 for two people, two courses and drinks. I'd recommend the 2 course set menu.|The restaurant was busy with 2 big groups and lots of …

We stayed with our friends on the Sunday the 9th of July as a stop on our way to Yorkshire. We are polite inclusive people who do not tell lies. The welcome was non existent the bar staff gave us drinks in an unopened can with no glasses, and closed at 8pm? The whole place was filthy, dated and not as shown in the photographs advertising online. Our room had old style 3 pin plugs ( probably not of todays standards, electrical inspection needed) breakfast was booked for8.30 but no one was in to serve this, then the owners arrived saying they were not told we had breakfast, when it was served, no choice was given or allergies asked about and just served. The next day 2 of our party of 4 were stricken down with diarrhoea and sickness. We were not asked on leaving if we would stay again as stated in my friends review reply, it therefore appears we are being accused of doing what the owners do I.E lie. We support small businesses but have to be honest in reviews as hopefully, people learn from honesty. No we would stop again. However the area is very pretty.
