The Cricketers Clavering
What Guests Say
We stayed in one of the rooms in the Willows complex. The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was huge! Excellent breakfast and we had dinner both nights as well. Good value for money and the staff were attentive and friendly. Highly recommended.

I believe we were given an upgraded room which was very nicely decorated and a good size having a settee and chairs. The room was separate to the inn. The old inn was very welcoming, low beams and again tastefully decorated, we had a lovely breakfast there. We were just staying the one night prior to flight out of Stansted.

We thought it would be a room above a pub, but it was much better. We had an enormous bedroom across the street in a converted bungalow. Could park the car 10 feet away, so readily accessible. Room was warm, well stocked with goodies. Check in was effortless, and we were well looked after in the restaurant by a very nice lady. Breakfast was nice too, and also a nice lady there serving us.

This is a wonderful pub in a rural area, but still only 15 minutes from Saffron Walden and within easy reach of London and Cambridge. The rooms are a delight, the pub is gorgeous (very low ceilings - but that's part of the charm and authenticity!), and the staff are exceptional. So kind, caring and attentive. We enjoyed our stay immensely, had a lovely evening meal (remember to book) and a mind-blowingly good breakfast included in the room rate. All in all, a great treat and highly recommended!

Location was perfect for our stop-off en route to Norfolk. The room was beautifully decorated and supremely comfortable although it was a little tricky to plug the kettle in as it really needed an extension lead, but we managed! The dinner we had and the breakfast were both absolutely gorgeous with a great choice and fantastic quality. We would recommend The Cricketers to anyone and will definitely be back.

Lovely large bedroom in the Willows converted bungalow across the road. Tastefully decorated. Bed was superb, super king and so comfortable. Bathroom had a bath and separate shower cubicle. Very quiet and looked out over a field. Traditional pub with oak beams and open fire. Lovely atmosphere with good mix of guests and regulars. Breakfast was excellent, with good quality ingredients. We ate there in the evenings too. Above average pub grub, good sized portions in comfortable surroundings. All staff were friendly and attentive. A special mention for Gail who as well as running breakfast service took time to suggest places of interest to visit. Thank you

Lovely stylish, characterful property. The decor was nice and the staff were friendly. We were leaving in the early hours, so we wouldn't be having the included breakfast, so some sandwiches were prepared for us to take with us, which was much appreciated. Highly recommend based on our experience.

Lovely old pub with loads of character, we were greeted by the manager who took us across the road to our room, with parking outside, wow, very large and plenty of storage, big and very comfortable bed, bathroom had bath and walk in shower, everything was spotless, lovely touches, ground coffee and cafetière, couldn’t fault it, had a drink in the beer garden before eating, meal was very good, plus in the morning one of the best breakfasts, lots of choice beautifully presented, stayed only one night, but if in the area again will definitely return

Lovely country pub with comfortable clean rooms,which we could park right in front. Nice and quiet with plenty room. The staff were really lovely especially Gail who served us our breakfast both mornings. Nothing was too much trouble . Gail is a real asset to The Cricketers, what a wonderful warm hearted welcome we received from her. We felt really looked after by Gail and The Cricketers.
