This represents one of the best examples of pubs. Wide selection of booze, local ales, fantastic food made by a chef who cares, not pre-made nor microwaved. The rooms were cosy, clean and well equipped. Complementary and generous portion of port was a great touch made even greater by its superb taste! The only thing warmer than the staff is the log wood fireplace in the entrance!

There was no absolutely no sound insulation in our room and so can very vividly hear everyone below. However, the pub was dead quiet after closing time, which combined nicely with a comfortable bed (and port) to result in a very good night’s sleep.

Just what we wanted for an overnight stay to explore the Kent coast. Was clean and comfortable offering everything you could want in a room for one night. Nice touch was a small carafe of Madeira wine (I think, but it was delicious) and there was a Nespresso machine with several pods, a kettle and teabags and fresh milk and bottles of water provided with extra of everything at our disposal. Breakfast was generous, tasty and beautifully presented. Lovely staff and would be more than happy to return.

The noise from downstairs was somewhat loud but this subsided in plenty of time for us to enjoy a restful night.

The staff greeted us so enthusiastically. The rooms were beautiful in a wonderful Kent village. We had our dog which was no problem at all. The food was exceptional xx

The WiFi was so bad we couldn’t even listen to bbc sounds for the news. This was the only downside. Also the rooms at the front are above the bar so if it was a busy or loud night that could be an issue. Ask for back rooms if your staying over a weekend xx

Excellent value for money, stayed on steak night so took advantage of the two steak and bottle of wine offer which was delicious, nice to see three real ales on, comfortable room, friendly staff, very well cooked and presented breakfast. Lovely village and traditional pub.

As stated in another comment, you can hear chatter from pub, it's an historic building, but as soon as last customer left all was quiet.

Really relaxed, exceptionally dog friendly. Great staff- friendly and helpful. Extra touches in room were really appreciated. Great food both in the pub and at breakfast. Perfect location for visiting around Kent and lots of great walks from the pub.

Very hot in room and unable to leave door to terrace open because of our dog getting out.

It was our first time in B&B Pub and was surprisingly good. The room was spacious, clean and we really like the decor. There was a welcome kit with a delicious chocolate wine 😋, coffee, water, tea and other amenities.

We were lucky because the Pub closes early on Sunday and we stay from Sunday till Monday, Its very noisy during the open hours.

We couldn't stay for breakfast as we had an early start. I was gutted that we were going to miss out on an amazing breakfast. The staff left a hamper outside the room of 3 fruit pastries, 2 bottles of Kent fruit juice and muesli. The staff were amazing and so helpful. The evening meal we had was truly spectacular. I felt like I was in a Masterchef kitchen!

Unfortunately there was no milk for the muesli. There was also no milk in the room for the tea and coffee.

Nice pub with good food in the center of a small village. The pub is great with a nice atmosphere and good food. I would definitely recommend to have dinner here! Staff is very friendly and welcoming.

The rooms are nice, although the furniture all feels a bit cheap and unstable. Unfortunately they forgot to prepare the breakfast basket they kindly offered us because we needed to leave before breakfast was served in the restaurants.

Lovely and freshly cooked breakfast with an amazing selection of items. Well appointed rooms and great location. Adam was incredibly helpful providing good advice about reputable taxi firms in the location. The team were all very helpful and the pub had a lovely warm and welcoming feel. Lots of lovely local people to chat with too.

Nothing major though there was abit of a challenge with parking as its a village location but Adam was very helpful.

We stayed at the Duke William for the second time and were welcomed like old friends. Team, rooms, pub and location are all outstanding. Ickham is a lovely village and the perfect starting point for excursions towards the coast or Canterbury. The team is very kind and happy to accommodate special dietary needs (gluten-free diet). There's nothing better than coming back to the lively pub for dinner after a day out discovering Kent and the beautiful rooms feel like home. We will be back for sure - the sooner the better!
