Pros:

Country Pub feel.

Cons:

No cooked breakfast option in the morning. Ran out of produce or it had not been ordered. No eggs or sausages. So cereal and toast didn’t warrant price paid for my stay.

Pleasant one night stay in nicely decorated room with helpful staff
Pros:

Just a one night stay for a friend's wedding nearby. The room was well decorated and comfortable. The bar staff were helpful (I needed ice to keep some food cool in my room as I was travelling the next day) and they immediately gave me a whole wine-cooler full.

Cons:

Minor areas of bathroom that needed tidying up but it was clean and serviceable, so this is a small point.

Overall a very nice room and location
Pros:

Room very comfortable and nice restaurant, bar and garden area.
Reception and bar staff very efficient and friendly
Despite worries about public transport, there were plenty of bus services into Harlow and thence beyond

Cons:

one slight drawback was that some restaurant staff seemed a bit disinterested/distracted so that on one evening the order was wrong and one main meal was delivered some time after the other. Nothing which really spoiled our evening.
