About The Brocket Arms

The Brocket Arms is an old village inn set in Ayot Saint Lawrence, near Welwyn, with just five rooms giving it the feel of a small, characterful retreat rather than a large hotel. Original features and a traditional bar and restaurant give the building plenty of old-world charm, while free WiFi and air conditioning bring things up to date.

Guests have use of a garden, a gym on-site, and meeting rooms, making the property suitable for both a relaxed stay and small business gatherings or weddings. Breakfast is served on-site, and free on-site parking is provided, along with luggage storage and a lift for ease of access.

The surrounding Hertfordshire countryside offers a quiet base, with Whipsnade Zoo within reach for a day out and Welwyn North station around 4.5 miles away for onward travel.
