A beautiful 15th-century thatched inn set on the outskirts of Whipsnade village close to the world renowned Whipsnade Zoo. A log fire warms the cosy main bar that includes soft seating as well as traditional dining tables. The side bar includes many old features such as the inglenook fireplace. Separate restaurant areas may be used as function rooms. The picturesque front garden makes a lovely area for summer eating and drinking. The six guest rooms include a bridal suite.
