Three Horseshoes
I'm part of the Destination Inns family!
This rural roadside retreat has been a McMullen house since 1880.
Enjoy some seriously relaxed dining where we focus on fresh seasonal treats with daily changing specials.
Set it in its own delightful grounds with acres of alfresco dining, the Three Horseshoes is steeped in relaxed charm. Enjoy the summer sun and dine outside overlooking our pond filled with our much loved and protected terrapins. When the weather’s less clement, step inside and warm by the roaring fires, book the private dining room or just enjoy… kick back, relax, and let us do all the work.
Delicious, fresh seasonal fayre complemented by stylish wines, Hertfordshire cask ales, classic cocktails and world beers await you, along with delightful service of course.
Our splendid function room has AV facilities, and is ideal for groups, meetings, or privacy. It’s available from early until late so if you’re interested in booking us for your event, please click Private Hire to find out more and get in touch!
The team look forward to seeing you soon.
