Good enough that I'd go back!

Great place to stay, been a few times now. Always clean and warm with a friendly face at checkin. Only feedback I'd give is that the shower pressure in each room I've stayed in hasn't been very good - if thats all thats wrong though, I'll still be back!

This hotel is in a beautiful location - our room was clean and welcoming. It was hot with no AC but there was a fan in the wardrobe. Plenty of parking too.

My stay at this property was comfortable and enjoyable. The hotel is large and has lots of classic country hotel character, plenty of parking with some excellent views across the Nailsworth valley.

Great break, would stay again.

Stay was excellent, in extremely warm weather. The room was advised as being a quiet room at the rear. However with the temperature, we had the windows open wide, to be greeted by the continual sound of the air con units, until 11 p.m. Staff, and service are excellent, superb breakfast. Would certainly stay again.

When you look at the photos there are cows and serenity.What you get if you stay in the tower room is a very busy road instead and a poor nights sleep. Not for me I am afraid,

Avoid.

Piping hot room, windows that cant fully open, guests snoring and the walls were so thin I couldnt sleep. Bathroom shower took only 2 or 3 minutes till it was overflowing due to blocked pipes. Horrible, expensive food at the restaurant. However, staff are lovely and the location is nice.

Dog friendly weekend with friends.

Perfect! Lovely spacious room, excellent facilities, large comfortable bed, great to have plenty of space with 2 dogs. Superb shower with quality toiletries. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Menu and quality of food excellent. So much space both indoors in bar/eating areas and outdoors in beer garden. Best ‘dog friendly’ hotel we’ve stayed in, can’t wait to book again.

From start to finish our 2 night break was excellent. From the warm welcome when checking in to us checking out the staff made us want for nothing. The room we stayed in was clean and was cleaned with everyting restocked. It had all the appliances you would expect, kettle for provided tea and coffee, ironing board and kettle including a safe and T.V. Although in the adjoining country house, we never felt that we was not part of the main hotel building. There was also an outdoor bar which was open when we had pizzas on the Friday of our stay which were freshly cooked in the outdoor pizza oven. The Sunday dinner was of high quality and again, the staff during meal times were thorough and efficent. The hotel is situated just off the common which gives access to plenty of walks. Overall I would recommend the hotel to anyone as it caters for all.
