My fiancée and I returned recently from a pre-wedding trip to England, and the Hopping Hare was our jumping-off point for things we'd scheduled to do while in the Midlands. At every opportunity, the staff went above and beyond to make it a most enjoyable stay. We had one of the smaller rooms...small, but nicely appointed and well-maintained. In the mornings, I'd get the day started with a Full English, while my fiancée went through some of the other options. One evening, we stayed in for dinner and drinks. In every case, our food choices were exceptional. If you find yourself in or near Northampton and need a place to stay, stay here. You won't be disappointed.
