Super stay, our third visit. The team are always so welcoming. A couple of bits that could have been improved on.... the heating turned on in my room before my arrival. There were a couple of small issues but the hotel was happy to put right had I asked.

Great staff & nice place to stop.
Our second stay at The Moat House, the staff are wonderful, the rooms are spacious, the are dog friendly. The decor is sympathetic to the period building. A couple of negatives, despite asking for advice I couldn’t get the room warm enough during the night. The hotel is popular for wedding/ birthday events, unfortunately some other residents aren’t as considerate, who let their children run and down the corridor at 1am. That’s not the hotel’s fault but it did mean we didn’t sleep too well. Fortunately the excellent breakfast and service helped to make up it

After a long journey we were welcomed warmly. Our booking for dinner in the bar was good and food great. White wine could have been more chilled.

The room was pleasant and quiet. The staff had bent over backwards to give us a ground floor in order to accommodate our disabled grandchild. Very nice area.

A lovely peaceful place with its own moat and fishpond as well as a working canal behind it. Dog friendly, with a dog bed and bowls supplied. My second visit with my two dogs.

First time staying at the Moat House. We had an unexpected room upgrade and we ended up in the Pagent suite which is a beautiful room with patio doors that lead onto the side of the canal. All of the encountered were very friendly but also professional. We had our evening dinner in the restaurant and the food was fabulous. This hotel is a gem. We will definitely go back.
