"Hi Julie, Neil, Just to say a big thank you for your hospitality last night. We all enjoyed ourselves enormously. The food was superb and I want to say the Mussels were cooked perfectly." facebook Oct 2009
Just a short note following our meal last night to thank and your staff for a wonderful evening. We were looking for a 'halfway house' to meet with long lost friends - we live in Melton Mowbray and our friends in Kettering. We couldn't have found a more perfect retreat to 'wine and dine' - a lovely relaxing atmosphere, excellent food and efficient service - with a smile (often a rarity these days). So many thanks once again - we will most certainly be back.
Good luck for the future

My favourite pub is The Hatton Arms, Gretton a gem of a pub hidden away in one of Northamptonshire's prettiest villages. This is a very historic pub, lovingly and sympathetically restored in recent years. Heavily beamed with stone flags, exposed stonework and open fires, a comfortable cosy bolthole in the winter. With a pleasant terrace and views fron the restaurant over the Welland Valley to enjoy in the Summer. The food is superb with strong emphasis on local, seasonal produce, friendly service and a relaxed eating environment. Whilst locals can still enjoy a drink in the bar (dating back to 1300's) with fine local real ales and ciders on offer.
