Dinner meat meals were okay though The beer was lovely (Olivers ? I think). Breakfast veggie avocado was very nice

dinner was disappointing as the yorkshire pudding did not seem fresh and the veggie baked beetroot not very tasty. The cappuccino had no froth so disappointing as it's nice to finish a meal with a good coffee. meat option sausages not very nice apparently. The tea was very weak indeed - you need to put at least 2 of those T bags per person AND one for the pot. I had a Tbag in the room and it was the same disappointingly weak. The iced T was so weak it was completely tasteless

Second time staying here for work meetings nearby. Charming and classic Inn in a typical and charming old English town. The room accommodations were quirky and unique, clean and comfortable. In the middle of the cold winter, the heater was more than adequate. Good Wifi, TV package, and teas, cookies, etc., in the room. The restaurant and pub downstairs is excellent, worth going to and popular with locals and visitors who are not staying at the Inn. Good and classic pub, high-level restaurant (enjoyed my dinner there very much!) and the breakfast is also a gourmet experience. Friendly and efficient staff all around. Some other good restaurant and pub options very walkable. Would recommend Inn, Pub or Restaurant to anyone.

Little to no complaints, really. In mid-January, the bathroom area was cold (no heater like in the bedroom area) but for a building of this age, that's part of the expectation. No direct train station access but easy and regular bus access or taxi to Flitwick, so no problem. Everything else really excellent.

The staff were very friendly and nice. The room was spacious and very nicely decorated and gge bed was comfortable, pillows were good and firm enough. We had dinner (not included) and breakfast (included in yhe price of the room) and the food was excellent. The portions were generous without being too large, and both dinner and breakfast were really delicious. The chef clearly enjoyed his work, and the quality of the ingredients was also clearly really good. Overall, it was all very good value for money.

Although, this is not something the owners could necessarily do much about without significant work, the room we stayed in was not level at all. The floor dipped by as much as about 15-20 cm from one end to the other, which was very disorientating. As a result, the bed was effectively on an incline, with the headboard at a lower level then the foot, so when I lied down it felt like the blood was rushing into my head. This made it a bit more difficult getting to sleep and made me feel quite disorientated and weird overnight.

We enjoyed our two night stay at the White Hart, on arrival we found the Staff to be very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Our room was very clean and comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities and all the toiletries that you need and a hairdryer and straighteners too!! The cooked breakfasts were delicious and we have to say that of all the many B&B's we have stayed at, this was the best that we have had and the menu choice was exceptional! The reason for our stay was to visit relatives living locally so we didn't have an evening meal in the restaurant, therefore we cannot comment on that but with the breakfasts being so good, we are sure that the meals will be just as delicious.

There wasn't anything not to like

The room was well appointed and designed. The food served both at dinner and breakfast was great and above all the staff could not have been more helpful and considerate.

we loved staying at the White Hart - I guess the only point to make which was not a problem for us at all is that communal areas are in the pub which is clearly a thriving local asset especially for brunch. so might not suit someone seeking peace and quiet.

The hotel is modern, very busy and well located. A lovely member of the team, a man, I didn't catch his name. He was so polite, welcoming, addressed you by your first name. He was so professional and helpful. He told us he'd only recently started working there. Room was comfortable and good value. Could do with a "spruce"/ freshen up, but that's me being picky/ Arte in the bar/ restaurant/ terrace on Saturday afternoon is a delight. He's so polite, friendly, helpful and a true professional

Breakfast - choice was excellent, great value and quality. Just all seemed a little disorganised and not sure why as it wasn't that busy. Checked out on the App. Within seconds housekeeping came barging in the room. No knock at the door or polite notice that they wanted to come in the room. Not very quick to exit either!!! NOT GOOD A young lady (Andrea or Andres??? Not sure), so efficient that she verges on being rude/ curt and quite aggressive - not pleasant. A shame as I have many years experience in customer service and customer facing roles. It was also evident that she was not very supportive or welcoming of the newer male!!! This is something that your customers should never witness or pick up on

Great accommodation in the lovely little market town of Ampthill. Our room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed relaxing in the bar with a drink and later on had a wonderful meal in the pub's restaurant. We really liked our freshly cooked breakfast too. Without exception all the staff throughout our stay were helpful, very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.

I hadn't realised that the pub didn't have its own carpark, however, just a few steps away there was a pay and display carpark, which was fine.

Friendly staff and great food. It was both the venue and the accommodation.

The White Hart sign was outside my window and made very frequent and regular metal grinding against metal noises; literally thought there must have been a building site across the road until I looked out the window and saw the culprit. As a generally heavy sleeper, it only woke me up 3 or 4 times in the night so I didn't mind too much. If only I'd had my WD40 on me at the time!

Comfortable rooms and a warm welcome made this a good night's stay before a family wedding. Staff were attentive and thoughtful. Breakfast was very tasty!

Restaurant menu is pretty expensive, but the food was good. Breakfast is ordered off the normal bar menu, so no buffet of cereals, toast, juices etc. Not a problem at all, but not what we expected.

The young staff.

For such a Busy place. They should have more staff. There was 3 girls in the morning. One behind the bar. The other 2 had to serve. When I came down for breakfast. I was rushed to a seat. And had to wait to order for 15min. As the girls were serving other tables from outside customs that came in for the lovely breakfast. So Residence had to wait.
