The Crown Inn Shortlist*
Chiddingfold, Surrey
Good Hotel Guide Review
On the corner of the village green, a ‘lovely’ country inn which has been offering hospitality to pilgrims and travellers for centuries. Constructed in 1441, the timber-framed building is full of ‘traditional character’; in the popular bar, local tipples are served amid medieval carvings, ‘massive beams’, stained-glass windows and inglenook fireplaces. In the oak-panelled restaurant, pub grub is attentively served to well-scrubbed tables. Characterful well-appointed bedrooms, all sloping floors and antique furnishings, have chic toiletries, a digital radio; some feature a barley twist four-poster bed. Across the courtyard, two rooms open on to a private garden. Breakfast has a buffet of morning-baked pastries, good cooked choices.
