Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about The Lower Buck Inn from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Lower Buck Inn offers guests spacious and clean rooms, with some providing views overlooking the beer garden while maintaining a sense of privacy. Rooms are equipped with amenities like irons and hairdryers, and while the pub itself doesn't serve breakfast, guests appreciate the thoughtful touch of fresh milk, cereal, and pastries provided in the room; a few guests have noted cobwebs in some rooms, though. The inn is conveniently located in Waddington near multiple pubs and is just a minute's walk from Waddington Arms for breakfast.

excellent stay

large roomspacious bathroomgood breakfast
i booked a room here because a family member couldn't get into another place. the room overlooked the beer garden, but it felt private thanks to the window coverings. the room was large, and the bathroom was equally spacious. breakfast included cereals, milk, tea, and coffee.
i noticed some cobwebs under the sink, they were visible. it needs attention to housekeeping.
