Fantastic two night stay this week in the small cottage with the double and twin. All the family had a great time. Room was really nice, like brand new and the kitchen was really useful. Made use of the swimming pool twice and the kids loved it Breakfast was really nice, as was the evening meal that we had on the Friday night. The staff could not do enough Will def return as the whole place is so pretty

Well. we attended a wedding here , we checked in and just put our stuff in the room and went back to the wedding party, we noticed straight away that the room was dated, tired & not clean (bathroom window was cracked, dust on top of TV, toothpaste marks on the bathroom floor, silicone around the bath was marked with mould- just general upkeep, but we were there for a wedding and just embraced it, the bed was so uncomfortable it was like sleeping on a rock, shower facilities were poor to say the least there was no getting the right temperature in the shower, even when you eventually did it would go hot/cold in seconds, overall dissatisfied and wouldn’t reccomend! i think £110 for a room like this for 1 night is quite disappointing, i don’t expect luxury but basic cleanliness and comfort i would expect …

I attended a family wedding back in July and wow, the staff couldn't do more for you!! I left a item of of my suit behind and even though I asked at reception and they took details but I just thought that's it I lost it. However this last week Jonathan found it in lost property but instead of ringing me, he brought it to my work place whilst shopping!!! Now that is service, thank you

Lovely 2 night stay here. Despite being located not far off the main road it really does feel remote, the hotel setting is lovely. I agree that rooms are a little dated but this really didn't bother us. Staff were very friendly and pool facility was nice (often has it all to ourselves!). Overall a really lovely stay.

My self and my wife got married here back on April 10th 2022 and what can I say. It was honestly the second best day of my life (the best being the brith of my daughter on 15/06/22) And honestly Lilly (wedding co-ordinator) was the best! She was the nicest and kindest person that we have ever met, she was super helpful and couldn't of asked for a better co-ordinator! Super helpful and attentive! Highly recommended. The rest of the staff were jist as attentive and helpfull, anything we needed they got straight on to! But. Jonathan. Where to start with this guy! He genuinely made the whole day 1000% better just by his attention to detail and overall kindness! He was there for the full day and no matter what he always had the biggest smile on his face and catered to my heavily pregnant wife's needs and nothing was to much trouble! He honestly was amazing! I would recommend this venue just because of him and lilly! Such a beautiful venue and super helpful! …

Stayed for 2 nights recently for a family wedding and also had our dogs; we stayed in the family cottage which slept 4. Cottage was compact but had everything you needed for a short stay. Plenty of room and comfortable beds too. The only downside was the lighting, which wasn't brilliant, and also lack of sockets in one of the bedrooms. All staff members worked tirelessly and were always friendly & happy to chat. Special mention has to go to Kasha, who, on the day of the actual wedding seemed to be working morning, noon & night...always with a smile and nothing too much trouble! She is a certainly a credit to the team. Another mention goes to GM Jonathan, who provided us with enough titbits to feed our dogs for a couple of days! They were certainly very happy and would love to visit again! Jonathan was always happy to chat, very friendly and nothing too much trouble. The venue is beautiful, great location and we'd love to visit again soon. Thank you :-)…

I’m rating your hotel below .. we came to a wedding (that was knockout.. venue, team & food we’re simply amazing… whole even was first class). Accommodation does need some updating. Broken socket in room, grouting around the bath, no bath mat.. small wardrobe (couldn’t hang dress).. and it was warm.. I am glad we were not staying for a hot, summer wedding or getting ready would have been like a sauna.. maybe aircon is needed, windows don’t give enough air in room. Your team are lovely.. it’s a shame there is a surcharge for cooked breakfast.. I would suggest to include this.. we didn’t bother with breakfast on our second morning due to this. I do wish your overall venue well.. it’s been a tough few years. Your location, wedding venue and team do your justice

We visited yesterday. We had rooms 400 and 401 To sum up this visit I’d say….I feel sad for the building and sad for the owners! Hotels don’t have to be posh, as in, have lots of fancy things they need great basics, such as, cleanliness, places for guests to adequately store their clothes if needed and functioning amenities. I feel very sad that this beautiful very old building has not got these. I feel sad that the owners have such huge potential in their hands for an awesome hotel and they have not realised it. I’d be super happy to not say anymore on trip advisor as I feel this to be unfair to the potential and speak directly via email to the owners instead. Guys you have awesome potential in your hands please don’t let that go.

You can not but be impressed the second you arrive, it's a beautiful building. We were a group of three families, ten in all. Adults, teenagers and young children. We arrived for Sunday lunch and received a warm greeting by the staff. Drinks in the patio to start which was wonderful, a real sun-trap before moving to a private function room for our meal. We all had the three course meal, everyone having different meats. Clean plates by all! Following a break we ventured to the pool. The children (big and small) loved it, the area and water nice and warm. The rooms were spacious and clean and all slept well. The breakfast, a combination of continental and cooked was beautiful. Clean plates once again. The staff at all times were attentive and very polite. To finish off a great stay the resident peacock decided to show off it's plumage, a lovely send off. We would definitely stay here again.…

We have stayed over this weekend as we were attending a wedding. Staff were lovely as was the wedding but i can't rate this hotel as 4 star. We paid £109 for a room, very basic. Not as clean as expected and quite a few cobwebs in room. I appreciate it is an old building but these cobwebs are old and also found them in the breakfast room. Also very disappointerd to find that the room rate did bnot include a full breakfast so as nice as our weekend has been we won't be back

Thank you for your time to review us , l can only apologise as we have really struggled to replace members of the team and get back to a new normal , l have looked into some various issues and sadly a menu card that should not have been out during weekends was indeed placed on tables , l can only blame myself ,as breakfast is included and we could have looked after you. The housekeeping team have been sharpened and we are really almost moving forward in all departments , so l can only say sorry from all of us. Thank you
