Can’t fault this hotel it has everything. Lovely rooms, place to relax in the swimming/sauna area. The restaurant was so nice with amazing food and lovely staff. The lounge is a cosy place to chill and have a drink in front of the fire places. Overall a lovely hotel that’s not far from anything, is affordable and offers so much. We have already planned to return

Excellent Hotel for those looking to break a long journey going north from The Home Counties. However, unlike many quality hotels, who are well sign posted, this one is not, thus making it difficult to find.

Definitely not a 4-Star stay
The foyer was pleasant and staff throughout did their best to accommodate. However our room was dirty and the decor in no way reflected the pictures on the website. The general standard was very poor- cups were unclean, the shower should significant signs of mould in the tiles, floor and around the shower head. The pillows were lumpy and stained. I requested a move and all that was available was damp, cold and musty. The carpet in the replacement room was worn and had large fold that could have been a trip hazard. The Spa could hardly be referred to as such- it was a swimming pool with a jacuzzi at the side and to use the facility there was an additional charge. Children were having official swimming lessons making it overcrowded. The only real adult time was either dinner time in the evening or early morning. Our food was average at best! It took 45 minutes to arrive and my Parmesan and Truffle oil pasta has no Parmesan! Throughout the hotel I noticed worn carpets and scuffed doors and skirting boards. While based on website photos some f the hotel must have had an upgrade but they clearly give poorer rooms to those not booking directly.

We have just returned from a two night stay at the hotel with one morning spent in the spa. The hotel was really easy to find and the location was great for getting to towns nearby. The staff were friendly and accommodating. We had breakfast in the restaurant which was really nice and dined there in the evening. We would highly recommend. Thank you for a great weekend.

Excellent hotel that we enjoyed, HOWEVER we we informed after booking that there is a £15 per person fee to use the pool and spa for those who book through Expedia/Hotels.com....... A fee is mentioned in the hotel description if you go and read through the info, but the value of the fee is not mentioned. So whilst i actually booked thia hotel specific for the pool and spa, we did not use either. The actual fee need to be mentioned in the hotel details on their listing. In future if we use this hotel again, which we might because it was very nice, we will book direct as the spa fee only applies to third party bookings.
