Great pub - always something happening (mostly spontaneous and funny!), great beer and food and quality accomodation. What more can I say? MAD pub of the year again! Apparently I have to use 200 words so DRINK MORE BEER!

Stayed for one night with friends after attending a wedding at the nearby golf club . Fortunately for us they had no rooms available and recommended The Prince of Wales. It is a lovely friendly pub and the accommodation was spotlessly clean.We really enjoyed our stay especially the large full English!! We would definitely go back.

Just stayed here for a couple of nights to attend a wedding nearby. What a find! We were made to feel really welcome by everyone, including the locals! It's such a friendly pub, the food is brilliant and, according to my husband, the beer is great. Nearly had a disaster as we were about to leave as my OH lost... More

This place is a must if you're staying near Chelmsford. My review is very simple: - Great Dinner Menu ( if you're lucky enough to stay on a pizza night, where they are cooked in a wood fired oven in the pub, then you're in for a treat) - Great Beer, a wide range of real ales - Great service...

Four of us visited for a meal and drink. It was a bit of a squeeze in there. Good ales and food. After the food, we sat outside which was nice. Friendly staff. Old building. Good parking. Out of the way location makes it a quiet area.

I have never stayed in the new hotel rooms so cannot comment on those but have been to the pub many times, the beers are excellent as well as the food. The menu is simple but there are always specials on which change often depending on what time of the season it is, the people are always very friendly and... More

Just stayed here for 4 nights. Rooms are clean and functional, comfortable and set back a little bit from the pub, so noise is not an issue. Nothing bad to say to be honest.....friendly staff, food was great and I never got a chance to taste the beer! Great spot for a weekend
