Charming staff & location with delicious menu. From the accountant, who described himself as "playing with ink in the office," and rekindling the coal fire with candles; to Peter who is justly proud of this fab family enterprise. If you are in the area sample this
Excellent, discrete service and the food as excellent as ever. The ambiance is akin to being in one's own dining room. Intimate and cosy.

Warm, friendly family run Hotel & restaurant. First class food and hospitality. Great venue for that special occasion or wedding. We love Redcoats
We had an excellent lunch at Redcoats Farmhouse Hotel & Restaurant on 25th February. It was my 65th Birthday and my daughter came with our grandchildren - 2 years old and 8 weeks old. The hotel staff were so friendly and helpful - it was a pleasure.
Nice selection of starters (delicious pate). Excellent service - discreet but efficient. Relaxing ambience - plenty of space around the tables in the conservatory. Delicious desserts especially the creme brulee. We will come again!
We have lunched, dined and had our wedding breakfast at Redcoats for in excess of 22 years. They never fail to deliver. The addition of lunch on Saturday makes the experience complete. Thank you.
As usual the food at Redcoats was great. This is a wonderful place to eat.
Our favourite place for a special occasion. The service, the food and the overall atmosphere perfect. Thank you again
The food is fantastic, the location is amazing especially on a summers day and the owners are great too
Redcoats is a restaurant & hotel in a beautiful bit of countryside just outside Hitchin. I've always enjoyed eating there, particularly in their sunny conservatory, but I've just been reminded of how nice a place it is to visit as we went for lunch last sunday. It's just a perfect combination of exceptionally good food, attentive, friendly staff and a lovely setting. You do have to book early though as it's popular....
From a casual drink to a formal occasion or a business meeting venue, Redcoats has it all and they get it right every time too. I have no reservations recommending your business as the perfect destination for all occasions. Best Regards for 2011 Geraldine from Pebble
We wanted to say the biggest thank you for al of your hard work and help. Everyone who stayed over absolutely loved the hotel with beautiful rooms, fantastic staff and a warm welcoming atmosphere. The breakfast was hearty, just what we all needed after a great night. Liz, a special thanks for accomodating all our demands and to the big boss for letting my dad prop the bar up into the early hours.
Thank you all so much for helping to make our wedding so special. We look forward to seeing you on our anniversaries!
