Satisfactory but dated and poor service at recepti

Location was convenient but sometimes we felt like we were in Fawlty Towers. Waited 10 mins at an unmanned reception to check in. Clearly very focused on events and not hotel guests, so appeared very disorganised. Individual people were fine and Stables restaurant was awesome but the hotel is now very dated and clealry more staff are needed.

Its okay, but not value for money.

Reception staff were lovely and helpful. However, housekeepers were chatting outside my door, banging and making loud noises at 8.30am which woke me up. The main areas were clean, however not much attantion to detail, lots of dust, dirty cushions and someone elses rubbish left in drawers.

Lovely! Our room was in the main building, which is pretty old, but has clearly been recently refurbished. It was tastefully decorated in keeping with the age of the building, but still felt fresh and modern at the same time. Bed was comfy and a good size, bathroom was very nice with a separate shower and huge bath. It was freezing cold that day, so the under floor heating in the bathroom was very welcome! Breakfast was very tasty & all the staff were very nice. The event we went to in one of the function rooms was very well run.

Expensive cocktails

Extremely expensive cocktails for a thimble of liquid, very disappointing. £12 for a passion fruit martini in a smaller than normal cocktail glass. Extremely unreasonable. Service very good in the event, and everything else ok, clean.

Away for work

This was a 1-night stay for work. Greeting by reception staff was friendly. I was in room 36, which was a large room with a large ensuite (shower over bath, big step up/down in/out of bath). Room comfortable with a table to work at and additional armchair in room. I had asked in advance for decaf tea and coffee in room, there was none when I got into room, so had to go and ask and was provided on request. Hotel menu a little on expensive side (£17 for fish and chips) so ate elsewhere. Car parking right outside main entrance (space for about dozen vehicles) overflow car park nearby.

Ok but not sure it’s four star. Room was quite cold and couldn’t adjust the temperature on the radiator in bedroom or bathroom they seemed to be turned off. Wanted a shower in the morning but there was no hot water. Room was clean-ish, staff friendly. Didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment.

Heaps of potential but let down by state of repair

A beautiful old house set in lovely grounds. House itself is very impressive with lots of original features which made it unique. However the room I had was very tired, in need of decorating and several maintenance issues. Due to it being an old building, the room was draughty with only single glazed windows. Access to the room would have been difficult for someone with mobility issues or very tall people! Breakfast was great. Served in the old stables, the menu was extensive for such a small hotel and food was cooked to order and was tasty. Overall an average stay. This hotel has so much potential, on first impressions the rooms look well equipped with modern décor, however I would not choose to stay here again due to the general state of repair of the room.

Lovely big room, huge comfy bed..Couldnt get radiator to work in bathroom . Curtains badly hung missing several rings thus hanging down from pole so made them look a bit scruffy . Staff were nice. We stayed when hotel was not busy. Breakfast quality ingredients nicely cooked but no bread or toast with full breakfast which I found unusual. Overall enjoyable stay and would stay again
