Absolutely perfect in every way!

We enjoyed every single moment of our stay at the wonderful Saracens Head Inn from the initial welcome we received on checking in, right up until the day we had to leave (very sadly) and checked out. We stayed 3 nights over Easter in a very well appointed and comfortable room overlooking the River Wye. The facilities in the room were excellent and each day our room was fully serviced and any tea / coffee / sugar etc. we had used was restocked, meaning we never had to ask for anything. Breakfast really was excellent with so much to choose from - fruit, cereal, yoghurt, pastries or a full English. Nothing was too much trouble and drinks (coffee / tea/ fruit juice) were in plentiful supply.We ate in the restaurant on two separate evenings and again, the choice was great, served quickly (even when the pub was very busy), piping hot and always with a smile too. The Saracens Head is located in a beautiful valley and the scenery is absolutely stunning. We loved everything about our stay and will definitely visit again.

Stayed In room 11 - room was clean, beautiful and spacious. The bed was super comfy. breakfast was lovely and very good value for money . Personally didn’t use the restaurant other than for breakfast as it seemed pricey. Not much around the area other than the beautiful walks and scenery. Other activities just a couple of minutes away in the car but if you’re looking for a peaceful stay with plenty of walks it’s a perfect off grid break . There is a canoe hire on site also

Great room and breakfast.

Room 12 was really nice, more of a suite than a room with a little outside space for two overlooking the many people and the hand water ferry. Food was good if huge. Breakfast was outstanding, fresh and delicious. Well done. Peter.
