Stopped for 2 nights at the onsite lodgings whilst visiting family. The pub is now under new ownership and has undergone a full refurbishment. The new food menu was delicious and I’d highly recommend anyone in the area to stop by and enjoy the hospitality.

New ownership makes all the difference!

Went for my birthday dinner. Refurbished to a very modern standard. Clean, comfortable, nice atmosphere, very welcoming and friendly staff. All fresh, local produce cooked on site (not microwaved). Super menu with a variety of dishes, not complicated, neatly presented and good pricing.

Thoroughly enjoyable evening and I would definitely recommend it.

Super restaurant in a pub

Well the new owners are making our little local pub absolutely fabulous. The rooms are wonderfully clean and neat. The food is out of this world the goat’s cheese starter is beautifully light and the main of duck and lamb is sooooo tender and tasty. Then the blackberry and Victoria plumb crumble was almost as good as mine. What can I say I wish you every success.

Fab food

Things that need improving: room needs a deep clean; black mould on bathroom walls needs cleaning off and preventing from returning; flaking paint on bathroom floor needs cleaning up; shower door needs attention as it fell off at the slightest touch; light over bathroom sink not working; bathroom sink needs a plughole strainer as objects can fall straight into the u-bend, which may be why the sink drains slowly; need a way to let staff know when we have turned up for breakfast, rather than wandering around trying to find someone. 
Things that are good: excellent beer; bathroom towels are large and fluffy; comfortable bed; staff are friendly and helpful; good breakfasts and nice ciabattas.

Largely ok

We have stayed here 4 times now using the B&B whilst working on a project nearby. Sarah the manager, Rachel and the chef Harley are fantastic and the scampi and burger last night was hot and fresh and tasty and the full English on the two occasions we had it have been hot and fresh and cooked perfectly. The pub has a nice friendly vibe and a lot of that is down to the staff named above. Yes the rooms need some TLC but the beds are comfortable and clean and can have a hot shower so basics are covered. Claire and John.

Nice

The room was stone cold and the small convection heater made little or no impression on the room temperature. The same problem in the bathroom, the heater just wasn’t up to the task. I was in need of the extra blanket from the wardrobe but this was filthy.
The decor was tired - some decoration and cleaning were needed. Some of the sealant round the bath was cracked and dirty.
The hosts were friendly and the food was okay - nothing too fancy but big portions. Breakfast was excellent but an additional cost!

Rooms basic, cold and needed cleaning. Food OK

New owners, pleasant, good-willed people who have to recover from the negative reviews of the previous owners and are working hard on it. Cozy pub with good food. Easily accessible rooms on the ground floor with parking space in front of the door. Near Cambridgeshire. All this for a very reasonable price.

Pleasant pub.

The Black Horse is under new management.
The Landlady is so helpful and the rooms are comfortable.
The food is good 'pub grub' and the beers we drank were fine.
After chatting seems there are upgrade changes coming so we look forward to returning to clock the improvements.

Good place to stay and eat

 A choice of roast beef or Pork.
it was all nicely cooked and generous size portion of meat with plenty of gravy. 
It was hot and tasty, the separate bowl of cauliflower cheese was a nice touch!
Served drinks by warm and friendly lady behind bar.
would definately visit again when next in area!

Sunday Lunch

It appears the pub is currently under temporary management and the website and previous reviews are not completely representative of the current state.  The room we stayed in was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the breakfast was stunning.  The bathroom was not great, the shower was, sorry, really bad.  It was like it hadn't been cleaned for years.  It should be ripped out and destroyed.  There is a minimal ale selection, Landlord (thats good), and the current food menu is also fairly simple.  We didn't eat at the Black Horse, except for breakfast, which was absolutely great.  We stayed for two days as planned but I'm afraid we won't be back.  The website should really be taken down as it creates a false impression of what to expect.
