The Plough at Brockley Green, Hundon is an independent country pub where food, wine and real ales are our passion. We refurbished our accommodation in 2007 to create 8 en suite bedrooms – B&B with style! We are close to Cambridge, Newmarket and Clare - ideal for a relaxing break.

Our team of Chefs are passionate about food and produce a mouth-watering selection of daily special dishes, along with a la carte menus that change with the seasons. We always aim to make the most of the very best local produce, using local butchers, grocers and cheesemongers amongst our suppliers. We were delighted to be placed within LocalSecrets.com Top 10 Places to Eat in East Anglia 2010, as well as 2nd (runner-up) in the Suffolk category
