About John Barleycorn
Moorfield Road runs quietly through Duxford, a village surrounded by the flat open countryside of south Cambridgeshire, and it's here that the John Barleycorn keeps its traditional pub character alongside just four guest rooms. The setting suits walkers and cyclists, with routes through the surrounding fields and lanes on the doorstep, and the Imperial War Museum Duxford within easy reach for anyone visiting the area's aviation history.
Rooms are en-suite, with accessible options available, and the hotel operates as adults-only accommodation with a 24-hour reception. Guests can order drinks to their room, and free WiFi is provided throughout. Downstairs, the restaurant and bar serve as the heart of the property, with breakfast included and a proper pub atmosphere maintained alongside the hotel side of things. There's also a spa and sauna on-site for guests wanting to unwind after a day out.
Beyond the pub itself, Duxford offers further restaurants, bars and entertainment nearby, plus a golf course for those who play. Pets are welcome, and free on-site parking makes it a straightforward base for exploring the surrounding countryside by car, bike or on foot.
