“The character of this old village inn is truly its charm, beautifully balanced with a contemporary restaurant that surprises with quality food. The rooms retain a historic feel, though some headroom might require a moment's adjustment, and little touches like complimentary spirits are a genuinely welcome amenity. Breakfast is particularly noteworthy, prepared to order, making it a delightful start to exploring Cookham's riverside.”
