Quaint Inn with Historical Vibe

A quaint little inn nearby Windsor Castle and Heathrow. This inn has quite the history and I was unaware of how connected it is to early London (1100s and 1500s). As such, the inn is very old and rustic but the vibe is very modern and local. The staff were very courteous and helpful and accommodating. The restaurant has really good food and local drinks (they even distill their own gin). We stayed in the apartment suite that accommodated our group of 4 quite nicely. It was very clean and the decor was updated and comfortable. Again, the inn is old so for those looking for a more modern and updated feel, it may not be your cup of tea. We were quite pleased with everything and will definitely consider this inn for any future trips.

I needed a convenient overnight stay near Heathrow and really didn’t fancy spending it with one of the big hotel chains so we tried the Ostrich. Typical old pub, lots of character and history. Car park had plenty of parking space (remember to enter car registration on arrival ). Room was very comfortable with all we required. Staff were friendly and couldn’t help enough. For the evening we booked a slot in the bar for dinner which a typical pub menu and good value for money. We left early the following day so didn’t have time to sample the breakfast at extra cost. You may ask why not 5 stars Excellent on everything. Well you need to understand a very old inn has very narrow stairs, lots of tight turns, narrow corridors, doors to negotiate when carrying your holiday (full to the limit) suitcases from the carpark to your bedroom, especially when you are in your senior years. Definitely a challenge but we made it and it gave us a workout for free. Despite the later would definitely use again. Well done.

This is a hidden gem, especially if you are fly in/out of Heathrow airport. The rooms are beautiful with some quirkiness. The pub food is excellent, especially the breakfast.
