This place is a dream. The small town of Oundle is just lovely. Taken back to 400 years ago and the Talbot inn is extraordinary. From the rooms to the food, to the amazing staff and welcome, we fell in love with it from the first second. Our fave was Alisha our waitress. She was also delightful.

The Talbot Hotel, Oundle 2-4th July. Paul+Amanda.

Speechless!!! And that's not normal for me but I will give it a go ! Lol .... The Talbot Hotel is truly an amazing place to stay, if you are history nut such as myself the hotel is rich with history as is Peterborough itself, the staff go above and beyond to help any way they can to make your stay comfortable and stress free! ... Myself and my partner resided in the Burleigh Suite (103) ... The moment we entered the room it was just .... Wow !, the furnishings...of course the four poster bed too, we loved the bathroom too ... And loved the radio which we made a lot of use of 😊 all food was lovely and cooked to perfection Paul was a huge fan of The Talbot Burger 🍔 😁he also loved his breakfasts, I'm just not a big eater more of a grazer so unfortunately I never really ate much but all food looked delicious. Other guests were friendly and it was great to meet new people, even just local drinkers especially the couple with their cute little dog Milo (pic will follow as with many more!) also a local drinkers with his two retrievers Jasper and Piper 😊 would alo like to give a shout out to bar staff Andrew and the crew who couldn't do enough, especially Andrew who showed me some cards he acquired off eBay regarding the hotel, much appreciated 👍 ... This was a birthday treat for myself and a well need break for us both WE SHALL RETURN!! We love everything and everyone here, and to leave this morning, we was very sad to go !. But until next time, much love all and thank you ❤️

Everything about this hotel was stellar. The room, gardens, restaurant, staff, and location were absolutely outstanding. I absolutely plan to return. Not a negative, but to be informative, I am 6’3”, and most historic structures were designed for much shorter people. That said, I only had to duck my head a couple of times. It will not impact in any way my decision to return. Couldn’t have been happier.

The Talbot Hotel is a beautifully restored coaching inn that is so welcoming, has a great restaurant in the best setting. For us, it was as if we discovered an oasis on out travels. I will now be looking for the other inns that this group has renovated.

A wonderful, peaceful stay at the Talbot Hotel. Convenient parking, decent coffee maker and everything one needs in a hotel room ie iron, hairdryer, quality toiletries. Great food and relaxed dining options and environment with the added bonus of being truly dog friendly. Staff in the restaurant were engaging with great customer service. A special shout out to Vanessa and Neil and all the staff in the restaurant. Thank you for a relaxing stay.

I really liked how the history of the hotel and its modern updating just seemed to fit together. I was impressed with its layout, the ample space, seating and tabling available for guests to sit outside and socialise. The staff were very helpful, assisting with any query we had with patience and politeness. The bedroom was very well equipped, with seating for two and ample storage space without it being overbearing. Very comfortable nights sleep was had and the food was very good and cooked to our requests. A very pleasant, relaxing stay in a clean, tidy homely accommodation in a small market town, steeped in history. I will visit Oundle again and I will stay at The Talbot Hotel.
