Second time visitor
Second time I've stayed here and loved it just as much this time as last. There was some sort of annoying alarm/noise going off quite late at night which stopped just as I was away to call for help. Other than that it was another lovely stay!

Once a grand house but clearly now a bit bedraggled and tatty. The photographer who took the pictures for Bonkle house did an amazing job, or they are from many years ago. It really needs a proper redecoration.

Please sort out banging doors.
Out of a 2 night stay, the 1st night Fri eve was awful due to Front and inner door banging continous by people coming and going from 8pm until 12.45am also loud talking, no respect for others at the hotel. Spoke to receptionest to report and Sat night was peaceful. My room was clean, shower great, big room, comfortable bed Dated decor, but this didn't bother me. Nice garden. I would suggest soft closing entrance doors plus big notice requesting quiteness for other hotel users on the evening. There is a local shop walking distance to grab milk and teabags/coffee etc. My room had kettle plus cups which I appreciate plus hairdryer & t.v. I took photos as to how I left the room, as you put the key on reception desk on leaving. Anyone could enter the room on your departure and do whatever.

1) no body wash refill before allocating room 2) rips in the towels 3) dirty bathroom 4) dusty furniture 5) after the first night, asked for a service and the cup/spoon used, was rinsed and put back instead of being washed so stains in the cup and the spoon was sticky 6) told no heating could be put on, due to it being summer - but understandably given another duvet (probably the night guards) 7) very hard to communicate with the receptionist whose never at reception 8) time of checkout - called the receptionist to say I needed to give the keys back and she said “leave it on the desk” so much for hospitality - also anyone could’ve taken the keys and ultimately blame could’ve gone to myself 9) Noted the building and interior wasn’t the best - but I won’t complain about stuff that can’t be accounted for

We arrived at 8pm and shown to our room. The ceiling lights did not work so we had to manage with 1 lamp. Quite a large room so 1 table lamp was not adequate. There were tea/coffee facilities but there was no way you could fill the kettle. There was a sink in the bathroom but the kettle was too big fit under the forcet. Used the cups instead to fill kettle but the the kettle didn't work. The room was clean and tidy although a little tired. Comfortable warm beds but the room was cold. Luckily they provided heavy quilt covers. Staying for 1 night was fine but i wouldn’t choose to stay longer.

The bed was clean and comfortable. Sink and toilet pan clean. The rest of the bedroom was past its "Best before". Holes in bedroom carpet covered by a tatty rug. Bathroom particularly dusty. The signage was incredibly difficult to see, almost impossible to see from the road. There was no opportunity to have breakfast. It's OK if you just want a basic bed for a night.

Don’t think we will be back…
Was alright apart from the hotel is very dated and needed a good clean. The beds were comfy don’t get me wrong but overall cleanliness was poor. There was damp/mould in the shower which travelling with a 4 month old is not ideal. There windows were filthy and there was cobwebs on them. There was also dead spiders in the bathroom of both rooms which we had booked so a good dusting/ hoover is needed. Such a shame because the views from the windows were stunning. The check in was very unprofessional also.

From the outside I thought this was going to be a nice little stay. I was wrong. The house was run down, dirty and stunk like damp. Everywhere you looked either had a stain, mould, a hole or a cobweb. Genuinely didn’t even want to take my shoes off. The decor was like something from an abandoned house. The only good thing was that the bed was comfy. Despite the holy stained bedding. Never again

The outside is gorgeous and has really cute grounds, just an immediate good vibe. We ended up with a room much larger than expected - it felt very luxurious! The inside decor was all quite nice as well. The employee there was so helpful and kind. Just an overall really lovely experience!

The beds were clean and there was hot water,there was no food the gardens were unkempt and the rooms were in a word filthy not cleaned or dusted properly no staff available if you want something you have to phone someone. On leaving the bedroom door was knocked at 9.45 am to say if your not out by 10am then you have to pay an xtra £10 Pity they hadn’t been so fastidious about the rest of the property .Would not stay here again even in an emergency situation.Take a look round folks get out the paint and rollers and then some bleach .

The room was lovely & large also very clean. Tea & coffee were provided in the room. I chose Bonkle house because it was different to what i usually book & we enjoyed our stay. The only staff we saw was on check-in to give us the key, who was pleasant but i cant comment beyond that. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay & highly recommend

Don't be put off by other reviews!
I'm glad I booked this before I read other reviews, or I might have missed out on a total gem! I booked the superior double room (Manor Suite) and it was just what I was hoping for. Large, bright, warm, clean. Lots of period features. Gorgeous ensuite bathroom. Lots of room for storing clothes in the walk through dressing area. I was travelling alone, and other than some doors banging from other guests, I had a really peaceful and relaxing time. A great night's sleep in the huge bed too! If I ever have need to stay over in the same area I wouldn't hesitate to return here.

The photos on the site are NOT what you will walk into when you arrive. I was prepared for an old and quaint building, staying for 3 days somewhere that was beautiful and quirky. We booked a room for 3 nights, and if my husband hadn’t been exhausted from driving all day, we would’ve left immediately. The room we stayed in was musty and dusty, with a very heavy smell of mildew/mold in the bathroom. The bathroom door was broken so that we had to put something against it from the outside to keep it shut while we used it, and then knock to have someone move whatever was against the door when we wanted out. I tried to call AND email from the room to tell them of our problems, but still to this day, (3.5 weeks later) no response. No one in attendance at the desk to talk to. My son has a mold allergy, and there was no way we could’ve stayed longer than the few hours we needed to sleep, (we had to keep a chair in front of the bathroom door to keep it closed for the least amount of mold exposure, possible) we left super early the next morning, and left our key. Expedia tried but could not get us any type of refund for the 2 nights we forfeit, and I’m sure this place is used to people not staying past the first night, as everyone’s keys were on the desk when we left in the AM, and I’d heard other guests say they were staying longer. There are other places, comparably priced. Skip this one, especially if you have a nose on your face. I’ve never had to write such a bad review before.
