Historic 17th-Century Coaching Inn with Wedding & Event Spaces, Pet-Friendly Rooms On the A1
Property & Grounds
The Sibson Inn Hotel occupies a 17th-century farmhouse dating to 1670, set on a rural plot with gardens and views over open fields. The building retains foot-thick stone walls, beamed ceilings, and a courtyard where guests can sit outdoors. Free parking is available on site, and an electric vehicle charging station is provided for guests with electric cars.
Accommodations & Pet Policy
The hotel offers 20 rooms, including Superior Double Rooms and a Superior Triple Room, each with en-suite shower or bathroom. Selected rooms are designated pet-friendly, allowing dogs to stay in those rooms with direct access to the courtyard. Room amenities include tea and coffee making facilities, a hairdryer, iron and ironing board, and complimentary shortbread.
Dining & Bar
The on-site restaurant serves fresh British comfort food, including homemade pies, fishcakes, and salads, with gluten-free and vegan options clearly marked on the menu. A separate bar offers local ales, a selection of wines, and non-alcoholic alternatives such as non-alcoholic wine. Breakfast is cooked to order and supplemented by a buffet with cereals, yogurt, fruit, and toast.
Weddings & Events
The hotel holds a wedding license and can host ceremonies and receptions for up to 200 guests, with exclusive use of the entire property available for complete privacy. Customizable wedding packages are offered, and event planning support is provided by dedicated staff such as Bret. A business center and meeting rooms are accessible for corporate gatherings and private functions.

The Sibson Inn Hotel sits directly off the A1, 6.5 km north of Junction 17, making it a convenient stopover between south and north England. Peterborough city center, Stamford, and the East of England Showground are all within a 10-minute drive. The nearby Nene Valley Railway is less than 5 minutes by car, and Sibson Aerodrome is visible across the field from the car park.
