Boasting a privileged position in the ancient town of Oundle, Northamptonshire, where the River Nene takes its course, this historic hotel offers comfortable accommodation just a short drive from major cities such as Northampton, Peterbrorough or Cambridge. The property has been fully refurbished in 2012 so it combines traditional features with modern conveniences, becoming the perfect option for an authentic and pleasant stay. Every en-suite bedroom is individually designed and has a cosy and rustic look with modern amenities such as free WIFI connection, a flat-screen TV, a free bottle of mineral water and coffee and tea making facilities. Some suites have original wooden beams and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower. Guests might benefit from the two function rooms that are available for weddings and other ceremonies, as well as from the in-house varied dining options.
