Redcoats Farmhouse Hotel

Near the village of Little Wymondley, set amidst rolling Hertfordshire countryside, yet only a few minutes from the A1, lies the 15th century Redcoats Farmhouse with its relaxed and easy going country atmosphere.

It has been in the Butterfield family for generations and in 1971 Peter and his sister Jackie Gainsford converted the building into an hotel. Bedrooms are either in the main house, some with crooked floors and all with exposed beams, or in the converted stables. Recently two rooms in the main house have been converted into a luxurious suite called Bobbie’s Room, named after a favourite aunt whose room it used to be.

The dining room and conservatory serve outstanding cuisine that has won an AA Rosette eight years running and breakfast has won a special AA award. The a la carte menu changes every month or two, making best seasonal use of local products. The daily menu may include such dishes as fresh sardines and char grilled lamb rump on rosemary mash, breakfast is equally memorable with devilled kidneys and kedgeree often on the menu. Two self-catering cottages are available to rent, short or long-term.

Garden suitable for wedding & other receptions.

A free glass of champagne on arrival to all  guests booking through Signpost.

Pets are welcome but there is a charge.

Hotel reviews

October 2009 : A lovely night out! This place was recommended to me by a friend. I drove up from London with my wife and, in just 40 minutes, we were in an idyllic English country setting. The suite we stayed in was lovely, the staff helpful and friendly and the food was delicious. What a surprise find!
Review by JBJ
November 2011 : We went back to this hotel 25 years after we spent our wedding night there. We enjoyed every minute of it. Room was beautifully furnished, bathroom amazing and food absolutely out of this world (try the brown bread ice cream!). Staff a little bit eccentric, just like the house, but it all adds to the total charm of the place.
