The PitStop

This small, AA 4-star gold-rated boutique hotel with a motoring theme has a large American-style kitchen, unique bedrooms and Morgan sports cars to hire on site. There is free parking and Stansted Airport is just a 15-minute drive away.

Melvyn and Sindy built The PitStop in 2009 and some of the windows were saved from the original Morgan factory.

BREAKFAST: Guests can help themselves to a full continental-style breakfast from the American-style fridge at a time that suits them. The huge kitchen is styled as an American diner and can be accessed 24/7 exclusively by the guests.

Room themes include Art Deco, Edwardian, contemporary and exotic Indian. Each has an en-suite bathroom, a TV, free internet access and a computer. With free WiFi, all rooms are located on the first floor and there is lift access.

The PitStop hotel is also convenient for the M11 motorway, while Bishops Stortford is just over 3 miles away.
