6/10 Good

Nice little pub

Very nice staff, unfortunately it was one of the most hottest nights of the year, no fan in the room and couldn’t sleep, not the hotels fault but a fan in the room would have been a help, but again nice pub and nice staff

Staff nice. Room poor and overall dated and in need of a full revamp.

Excellent stay, I had a compact but functional ensuite single room. The continental style breakfast was very good with lots of variety. If I'm in the area again I will definitely stay again.

Kevin & Friends Fishing trip

Had a lovely relaxing stay. Staff / management were friendly, welcoming and attentive. Atmosphere in bar was great with plenty of friendly locals. Room was clean and comfortable and breakfast more than sufficient with a wide range of cereals, juice, cheese and meats along with toast, crumpets and croissants. With off street parking and a large outdoor seating area. Great value too. We will definitely be back

6/10 Good

Warm friendly staff but if looking for comfort and more than one night stay then not really the place for you Met my needs for a short stay with no frills and if that’s what’s needed then not a bad choice Breakfast basic and again no frills
Martin, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not happy!

Dirty cobwebs in the shower space, mouldy paintwork, dirty sink plug. No curtain in the bathroom which faced the beer garden! Bedside lamp and only socket in the room was near the foot of the bed. Car park motion light was above the external door which was next to the back door to the pub! I did a video but couldn't upload on here. The staff were great but the venue itself wasn't good at all.

Steve, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a local no-frills pub with a few rooms for accommodation. It was ideal for our overnight stay. We had a few drinks in the bar, had a brilliant spicy pizza ( cooked to perfection) and enjoyed a pleasant conversation with a local worker. Breakfast was plentiful with food to suit all tastes. The bed was very comfortable and all programmes on the tv were accessible through TNT.

10/10 Exceptional

This was the perfect place for me to stay while visiting family near by, Nigel and everyone at the Rifle were welcoming and helpful. If you’re looking for a clean, affordable “room at the inn” this comes highly recommended.

2/10 Poor

Nightmare

Sorry to say it was awful! Toilet didn’t flush. Had a karaoke event right under our room extremely loud. We could feel the vibration on the floor and on the walls and even on the toilet!! We were not told before we booked about it or we would not have booked!

Nice accommodation option very close to Ware town

First stay here, pub has great choice of beers, room was small but clean, en suite was fine. Some of the other bedrooms were bigger than ours so will try and select them on our next stay. Excellent value for money and we would stay here again

Great locals pub / B&B with helpful, friendly staff and welcoming locals. Rooms were basic but clean, comfortable and very reasonably priced. Breakfast was more than adequate with a good choice available. Parking on site also available. We will definitely use again.
