The Bedford Arms is a beautiful 18th-century country pub with 18 boutique bedrooms, nestled in the picturesque village of Chenies on the edge of the Chiltern Hills, close to Rickmansworth and the Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire border. Serving seasonal British dishes, expertly kept ales, premium wines and handcrafted cocktails, we're the perfect place for everything from relaxed lunches and one

of the area's favourite Sunday roasts to family celebrations, private dining and special occasions. As a licensed wedding venue, The Bedford Arms provides a beautiful countryside setting for intimate weddings, receptions and celebrations, with stylish accommodation for guests to stay overnight. With 18 comfortable bedrooms, we're also an ideal base for exploring the Chilterns, visiting nearby attractions including Chenies Manor and Warner Bros. Whether you're joining us for a meal, an overnight stay, a wedding or simply drinks with friends, you'll always receive a warm welcome.

We're Open as Usual! 🚧
📍 Access via Claypits Lane
Just a little travel update if you're visiting us today or over the weekend.

There is currently a burst water main at the top of Latimer Road (from the Amersham Road end), along with roadworks at the other end of Latimer Road into the village.

Good news, you can still reach The Bedford Arms via Claypits Lane, and we're open as normal for food, drinks and overnight stays.

Thank you for bearing with the temporary disruption, we can't wait to welcome you! 🍻

Meet the Team Thursday! 🎉

Say hello to Dave, our General Manager (and Stevie, our pub dog)! 👋

⏳ Time at The Bedford Arms: 3 years

⛳ Fun fact: Dave is an avid golfer... although he'd be the first to admit he's not very good!😂

🍽️ Favourite menu item: Our Sunday West Country Roast Beef, with a cheeky piece of Dingley Dell Pork Belly on the side.

If you see Dave around the pub, be sure to say hello, he's always happy to have a chat (especially if it's not about his golf score! 😉)
