We’ve stayed at this hotel several times and really enjoy the location and the service from the staff. Only let down on this stay we felt was that the rooms seemed a bit dusty. Surfaces could have been willed down with more care

Lovely room and grounds, poor meal service

The grounds are beautiful and the room was decent - thank you. I was disappointed with the restaurant; had to wait 10mins for our empty table to be wiped. We were not asked if we wanted a drink. I asked for some sauce when the meal arrived. I repeated the request to a different waitress. The sauce eventually came when I had almost finished my meal. The food was fine but I was not impressed with the meal service.

Very pleasant stay. Would have liked to know that the golf course surrounds the property before arrival but it will not stop me going back. I loved the furniture in my room. Very stylish and well looked after. The breakfast was also very good

Lovely property. Thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast and the staff were great. Only slight gripe was the noisy golf parties that took over the pool and were noisy till quite late. But still a lovely place.

The hotel is nice but outdated. It needs a renovation. I’d not bother to go to a restaurant. It’s expensive for cheap food and the service is not great.

I won’t be too harsh, as I was only at the hotel for less than 12 hours while playing golf at The Belfry. The staff were great, and the rooms were tidy. However, I felt the pricing on the bar menu didn’t offer good value for money. I understand that hotels can charge a premium, but £20 for fish and chips that were overcooked wasn’t great. The staff were accommodating and replaced it, but the explanation that it was due to the beer batter wasn’t convincing—I’ve had beer-battered fish plenty of times before. The second portion was slightly better, but still not up to the standard you’d expect for that price. Aside from that, everything else was good.
