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!

Arrived at 11.30pm. Room on ground floor was huge and warm with 2 very comfortable beds. Made a brew and went to bed. Bathroom tiny but not an issue. Staff seemed friendly but didn't really see anyone. Paid extra as we arrived after 10pm.

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.

Lovely old property with some outstanding period features. Room (Manor Suite) was massive! Exceptionally comfortable to stay in. For the price you can’t expect 5* luxury but it was still a bargain.

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.

This was absolutely the worst property I have ever stayed at. There were stains everywhere: Sheets, Floor, Walls, Ceiling. The heat was broken and when we asked an employee to come check on it, he said “it will turn on soon”; which it never did.

Warm and comfortable hotel
We had a huge room with sofa and 2 beds. Decor is dated but still was comfortable and nice and warm. Adequate facilities - bathroom / TV/ tea & coffee. No option for breakfast it is just bed. House keeping could have waited until later in the day to knock on as woke us up early on Sunday, wasn’t very happy about that. Mistake on check out time, I thought 11 and it was 10am, they were understanding which was appreciated.

This property was so rundown and awful we left a day early ( we had nowhere else for escape to on the first night). The caretaking family were sweet and moved us to a cleaner room but it still had a musty smell and the bedsheets were old and soft. We won’t book ahead from photos on Expedia again.

Badly neglected, stained towels, no service
The owners need to put a lot more effort into what could be a nice place, but is currently extremely run down, and service is non-existent. We were met by a child, a bit confused by the paperwork, and taking instructions from unseen adults in a back room. That’s the last we saw of any staff. We had booked for 3 people in the triple room, but we realised in the morning there were only 2 towels and one was stained. The front desk had a number to ring for assistance, and three more if no-one answered. All 4 numbers went unanswered at 8am and none had a voicemail facility. We had booked for two nights but given these issues, made other arrangements for the second night instead. We couldn’t even communicate this to the owners as there was no one there! It’s very expensive as well for what it is. The paperwork seems a bit obsessed with outlining potential extra charges. No breakfast facilities, and no other options in the town other than an Asda. Overall an unwelcoming experience.

Not as haunted as it looks
Ok, this place is called BONKLE HOUSE. That's almost enough in itself. This is a lovely old house. We were kind of hoping it would be haunted - I mean, it LOOKS haunted. But alas, it was not. What a lovely space! We really enjoyed staying here. The room was so much bigger than we expected. The shower was.... tall. But watch the step down. It's a doozy. One thing of note - some places it's listed that they have laundry on site. They do not. Oh well. I found a good laundromat down the street. The staff was so wonderful. Our neighbors had a very loud TV and they took care of it so quickly. Even offered to move our room if we wanted. The grounds were so lovely! I really recommend this place. Just don't fall out of the shower like I did.
