The Heart of Historic Stanford

In the heart of beautiful Stanford, the Green Man is simply enchanting. A historic coaching inn with low beams, crackling fires, and the soft hum of conversation. A large conservatory plays host to private events and celebrations a plenty. The ale is proper, the welcome heartfelt, and dogs are treated like royalty. The extensive garden glows in the sun, and the rooms throughout are a snug retreat. It’s the kind of place you never want to leave, comforting, charming, and quietly full of soul.

Rich in History

The Green Man in Stanford, founded in 1796, is a glorious old coaching inn that has welcomed travellers for over two centuries. Perched on Scotgate, it once served the great north stagecoach route, where gentlemen and horses paused for rest. Landlords like John Meadows in the 19th century and dear Bill Lunn in later years kept its heart beating. With its ancient mounting block still in place and stories echoing through its stone walls, it remains a treasured jewel, graceful, storied, and utterly enchanting.

Stanford & Lincolnshire

Stanford is a gem of a town, quietly dazzling with its honey-coloured stone, medieval churches, and winding lanes. It feels like walking through a perfectly preserved history book, only with better coffee. Nestled beside the River Welland close to the A1 and surrounded by rolling countryside, it’s a place where time gently idles. The kind of town you stumble upon and never quite forget
