The Queens Head Inn
“Inviting riverside inn with treats from the grill” - AA Inspector
NASSINGTON, NORTHAMPTONSHIRE
Our Inspector's view
On the banks of the River Nene, The Queens Head Inn is built from delightful mellow stone and has been a hostelry for some two centuries. It still functions as a pub, but food is the main draw with a charcoal-fired Josper grill taking pride of place in the kitchen. Impeccably sourced steaks are a real treat.

About the area
Discover Northamptonshire
Northamptonshire is a mainly rural county of gentle beauty, with farmland, forest and great country estates. Rivers, canals and meadows are all part of the tranquil scene, providing a haven for wildlife.
This is a great area for walking, touring and exploring villages of stone and thatch. There are also some impressive Saxon churches at Brixworth and Earls Barton. Northampton is the county town, and along with Kettering, has long been associated with the production of footwear. Kettering was the second largest town until it was overtaken by the rapid development of Corby as a major centre of the steel industry.
Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park is set in Northamptonshire, although it seems that Austen never actually visited the county. Other famous connections include the poet John Dryden (1631-1700) who was born in the tiny village of Aldwincle; King Richard III (1452-1485) born at Fotheringhay Castle; and American revolutionaries George Washington (1732-1799), whose family came from Sulgrave Manor, and Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) whose father was born in another tiny Northamptonshire village called Ecton.
