Location
Longs Hotel & Inn is located at 18 Bedford Street, one of the oldest sites in Woburn that dates back to the Tudor era. Its origin as a Coaching Inn traces back to the 17th century, offering guests a chance to stay in a piece of history. Visitors can explore nearby attractions such as Stockwood Discovery Centre and ZSL Whipsnade Zoo, both within a short drive.
Dining
The on-site restaurant specializes in local, seasonal ingredients, fostering relationships with local farms and butchers. The head chef hand picks meat, fish, fruits, and vegetables to guarantee both quality and freshness in dishes. The menu is allergy-aware, providing a variety of options to accommodate dietary needs without compromising taste.
Electric Vehicle Charging
The hotel provides a Type 2 (32A/7kW) electric vehicle charging station in the car park. This amenity supports travelers who prefer eco-friendly transportation options during their stay. Charging services are available for guests, making it convenient for those with electric vehicles.
Entertainment and Attractions
Guests can venture to the Stockwood Discovery Centre to explore regional history from prehistoric times to the evolution of the Farley estate. The nearby ZSL Whipsnade Zoo is one of the largest zoos in the UK, accommodating approximately 3,000 animals on a sprawling 600-acre site. Activities in these attractions make for engaging day trips for all visitors.
“Longs Hotel & Inn in Woburn presents a mixed bag, standing out primarily for its historical roots as a 17th-century coaching inn and its dedication to locally sourced cuisine. The allure of individually decorated rooms is tempered by reports of tired decor, yet the exceptional breakfast and pet-friendly policy remain strong draws. Ultimately, it's a property with character, best suited for travelers who value history and local flavor over modern polish.”
