Thoroughly enjoyed a weekend away at the Forest of Arden. Comfortable and clean, but not luxurious rooms. Super staff and delicious food.

The reception staff were friendly on arrival. The rooms were clean king size beds in all of our rooms. We ate in the Oakes Bar the first day for lunch, not much choice. Very noisy as the day went on as a wedding party arrived and seem to take the whole bar over. Evening meal was very good even though... More

Just returned from a weekend stay which was varied in the level of enjoyment / service . Check in seemed good and very friendly ( see later comments ) and room was as expected - clean and well presented. We ate in the Oaks and found the food very good especialy the sweets - there was an error on table... More

An absolute must for the Golf, and the wife really enjoyed the Spa and treatments. Lovely room, excellent staff who could not do enough for you to make your stay a pleasure, Great restaraunt and bars.

Stayed at hotel this week for two nights. Room was ok, clean but shower head in bathroom is very low so anyone taller than 5.8" will have trouble washing above their neck level. Hotel car park has a security barrier entry and exit system which requires a code to exit. the code changes daily which is bizarre as hotel is... More

Have just spent the weekend here for a college re-union. I am rarely driven to write reviews but seriously, you would have to go back 50 years to find food this bad in England. I am at a bit of a loss how to describe the awfulness of it. Thick gloopy sauces, charred, overcooked meat with no seasoning or perceptible... More
