Delicious food

We had an amazing stay. Staff were friendly, breakfast was delicious and we chose to have an evening meal which was also great with a varied menu to suit everyone. Thanks to team Trout!

Excellent location. Understaffed, very pleasant man behind bar also needed to check our booking, take us to our room, act as waiter and serve at the busy bar. Room (hare's ear) dark and cold, despite ambient weather, In desperate need of revamp particularly bathroom with loose lavatory seat, loose shower controls, mould around bath. Breakfast (our only meal) was a shambles Very slow service, unusual menu with no cereals, fruit juice or fresh fruit menu offered pastries and one choice from long list of main courses. The tea/ coffee served first, twenty minutes later, when drinks had cooled toast and marmalade arrived and after the same time cooked breakfast arrived and looked cremated rather than fried. I am glad we only booked one night and we shall not repeat.

Disappointed. More shabby less chic. £180/ night - terrible value, totally ripped off. Room 2 (something Hare) needs complete renovation: frayed carpets, no info in the room about anything (wifi? How to use coffee machine?), bathroom needs complete refurb it was embarrassing for somewhere with 5* ratings!, shockingly bad, cracked tiles, mould, paint coming away, cobwebs in every corner of bedroom & bathroom.. I don’t think the room was cleaned tbh. Location was handy for thames path walks and restaurant food was good (breaki wasn’t great - poached eggs were hit & miss), bar staff were friendly. Won’t be returning.

Spotless, comfortable accommodation. Lovely food at family evening dinner and good breakfast all served by pleasant, helpful staff. I had booked the "two bedroomed suite" which didn't quite match the description. A bit pricey but we all enjoyed it.

Could have been perfect

Overall we found the staff very friendly and helpful. The room was quiet and pleasant and we particularly liked the little seating area outside our room. The breakfast was excellent (apart from the smell of the hoover which was going during our meal) I did however mention this and the waitress closed the door. The evening meal which was roast did not represent good value and there were limited vegetarian options. The room was nicely furnished but needed touching up in places. Tea & coffee facilities good but no biscuits! The wifi also didn’t work.

Scammers at the trout at tadpole bridge

Be very careful when staying here and check your bank account because they took payment from me numerous times and only because I have push notifications set up on my bank account was I aware that it was happening
