Fiona
Clean room, friendly, helpful staff, excellent breakfast. Our second stay here didn’t disappoint.
Howard
This a lovely and well appointed inn. The room I had, no 12, was spacious and the bed comfortable. The one big problem is the lack of Aircon or effective airflow through the windows. It was 29°c when I got back from work.and there was no fridge. The window latches are broken and hard to secure a window at the right angle. The.solution is to not visit when it's hot
virginia
all so good, food top quality staff attentive to every detail
Jean
The room was clean with lovely crisp linen and fluffy towels. The bathroom was huge and (should you need one) accessible by wheelchair. The room was in the outside area but still quiet except for the occasional car, but if you park directly outside your room, you won’t get anyone else there! Lovely breakfast included and a great night sleep. Super friendly staff.

Breakfast was lovely and freshly cooked. Plenty of parking most of the time but did get a bit busy for a while early evening
Mark
good stay , however unfortunately we had a room on the main road and the room was very warm and had to have the window open and the traffic was too noisy , not much sleep had at all , a room at the rear would have been better
Jeremiah
Lovely hotel. Nice rooms.
Tracey
Our room was clean and very comfortable. We had both dinner and breakfast in the restaurant and they were excellent. Staff were all very friendly and attentive. We would definitely stay again.

Alan

Maria
Rooms were lovely and clean. Staff were friendly. Cosy atmosphere and the breakfast was nice.
Brian
Lovely little hotel/pub. Rooms are good and food is also good. My only complaint is the pillows, which have mentioned before. They are flat and hard and very uncomfortable. It is like resting your head on a wooden board. Change the pillows and I would be very happy.
Joanne
Room so clean, staff friendly and helpful and breakfast such a great start to the day
Elizabeth
This was the ideal location for us as we were at a wedding nearby. The hotel is lovely, easy to find, easy to park. It's secondary to the pub though so we waited to check in and had to press the bell three times before someone came but check in was quick and efficient when they arrived. No one came at check out so we had to leave the key on the desk. Room was nice, spacious and comfy, the bathroom was too hot, the towel radiator was scorching and no way of turning it down. There was a little road noise but otherwise couldn't fault it. Breakfast was great!
Aline
Lovely hotel, clean room and very friendly staff.
Daniel
Room was really nice and spacious. The food here is also amazing. Would definitely recommend it and would stay here again.
Philip
Great stay again,
Warren
Lovely place to stay great staff & food was amazing
Meryl
Lovely place full of character. Great choice for breakfast and dinner was good here too. Had very good service from all members of staff that we came into contact with. Our room was clean and comfortable with plenty of storage. The only criticism was that we were disturbed at times during the night by noise from the car park area that our room overlooked e.g. the delivery to the kitchen that arrived at 4am! Apart from that we enjoyed our 2 night stay which was very handy for a wedding at Cronford Park.
Susan

Good location, good food, blackout blinds would be better on road rooms. Overall good
Mark
Very friendly staff and very smart hotel.
Brian
We like this hotel and have stayed many times before and have future bookings. However, our one gripe is that the pillows are awful. They are thin and hard and very uncomfortable, like sleeping on concrete. These need to be changed for something more comfortable otherwise we might have to reconsider our future stays.
JOY
Great Hotel
Regularly stay at this hotel and always receive excellent service.

Debra
Although the Harvard Inn was busy with Sunday diners we were greeted warmly and efficiently. Arriving slightly before check in our room No 9 was ready. First impressions were positive. Spotlessly clean everywhere. Absolutely no complaints about bedroom or bathroom facilities. Only comment would be room was very hot, bathroom window could only be opened slightly (due to hooks in the wrong position) and the lack of a box of tissues. The room was noisy but it is on a busy main road. There was an excellent choice at breakfast all freshly cooked to order. Can’t recommend highly enough especially if like us you have a function at Stock Brook Manor - a very easy 5 minute drive away.
Simon
Lovely convenient overnight stay
We stayed here as it was convenient for a local wedding. We paid for an early check-in and the room was ready when we arrived. The room was de-luxe and comfortable. the staff were very friendly and courteous.
Breakfast provided a good choice, was leisurely, wholesome and tasty.
Our only downside was the road noise which is not really surprising for a Coaching Inn from tudor times and earlier

The staff at this property is top-tier! Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Our room was lovely, clean and had all the amenities. Our stay included free breakfast, which was an added bonus. The attached restaurant and bar served as a great place to gather with friends. I would highly highly recommend this hotel.

Nice inn in village location
Nice village inn. Room was clean and had everything you need - just a little compact and underwhelming (more like a motel as we were in the anex directly off the car park).
Breakfast excellent - good quality and freshly cooked.
Dinner in the inn pretty good and service friendly and efficient.

We really enjoyed our brief stay, we were visiting family & Stock was a good base. The room was very nice & very clean. Breakfasts were excellent.
Only real issue was the shower panel, not big enough & water went all over the floor.

Lovely hotel/pub in a pretty village. Comfortable beds and super shower facilities. Breakfast was very good too- can recommend the full English and bacon sandwich.

The Harvard Inn: A Historic Boutique Hotel
The Harvard Inn is a charming independent boutique hotel that exudes character and history. I stayed here while attending a local wedding.
🌟 **Atmosphere and History:**
The Harvard Inn stands as a testament to the past. Its walls have witnessed countless stories, and its wooden beams seem to hold secrets from centuries ago. As you step inside, you're greeted by an ambiance that transports you back in time.
🍸 **Caramel Espresso Martini:**
The bar at The Harvard Inn is a hidden gem. Their caramel espresso martini is a delightful concoction—a perfect blend of rich coffee, velvety caramel, and a kick of vodka. Sipping it feels like indulging in a decadent dessert.
🥗 **Harvard Salad:**
For foodies, the Harvard Salad is a revelation. Fresh greens, juicy cherry tomatoes, and crumbled feta come together in a symphony of flavors. The tangy vinaigrette ties it all together, leaving your taste buds dancing.
👩💼 **Exceptional Staff:**
The staff at The Harvard Inn deserves applause. Their warmth, attentiveness, and genuine care elevate the experience. Whether you need local recommendations or extra pillows, they're there with a smile.
⏰ **Room Request:**
The only minor quibble? A clock in the room would be helpful. Sometimes, amidst the historical charm, we still need to keep track of time.
In summary, The Harvard Inn is more than a hotel—it's a living piece of history. If you appreciate unique stays and crave a taste of the past, thi

Defo Stay again
Very comfortable, great staff, super convenient parking.
Didn't eat here in the evening, but Breakfast was excellent and served with a smile, all the staff are spot on.
Beware the full English, it's a whopper, there is a small English which will be my choice next time.

Verified traveler
2 twin beds pushed together with no topper and completely different mattresses so not comfortable, noisy with pub deliveries in the morning due to situation of room even though a quiet room was requested. Staff and food lovely

Margaret
This property is beautiful, it had a lot of character.. So welcoming. Our lovely room used to be the old tables. Cosy clean, private and quiet. The bathroom was a lovely shower wet room. We went into a gorgeous restaurant, the staff were really attentive. The food melted in your mouth. the bar was comfortable, the bar tender, had good knowledge of what he was selling you. The breakfast, my goodness, yet another tasty meal.when you ate there was really soft, nice music in the background. We have stayed in a lot of places over the years. I can honestly say we have never come across anything better than this. We would not hesitate to go back. Thank you, staying with you made the weekend of our daughters wedding, more special.
David
We always return to Stock when visiting friends in the area as The Village was our home for 12 years! We have eaten and drank at The Harvard many many times and never been disappointed! Always good to return, reminisce and see the Village develop.
