4/10 Fair

Bit disappointing and underwhelming for the price
Underwhelming for a £250 per night B&B rate. Lovely looking hotel and gardens but room was tired and dated for this price. Small, tired bathroom. Service was bang average again for the price and although staff ok, they could have made a bit more effort considering the price we were being charged. If I had paid £100 for room I probably would have been happier with things. Not the cleanest place with windows and mirrors dirty around hotel. Breakfast was cold and serving filtered coffee - no excuse for not having a decent self serve coffee machine these days. Our room was hotter than the sauna in the spa area and we had to keep the windows open. All a bit disappointing really.

Fantastic place definitely recommend
It was amazing would stay again. Staff looked after us especially me as a wheelchair user. Breakfast was in a room with steps going into it. My route was by the basement got some fantastic info from the staff about what the hotel was previously used for. They have a museum which was not open when we went. But staff filled us in with intresting knowledge.

Good but in need of a facelift
The hotel is very grand upon arrival, the staff are helpful and welcoming. The breakfast is superb and one of the best hotel breakfasts I’ve had - lots of options, both healthy and unhealthy. I would say, however, that the rooms are in need of an upgrade. The bathroom I had was quite dated and a shower curtain was used which felt unhygienic. There was also no toilet lid too. Overall an okay stay but I would look to upgrade to a different room next time

The quality of the food in the main restaurant for dinner was very, very poor. An easily forgotten event. The price of drinks was eye-watering (£16 for a glass of mediocre wine)

Overnight nightmare
We stayed at this hotel overnight in order to break up a longer journey and in order to see a show that was featuring in the theatre. Long story short we barely were able to sleep due to the condition of the floorboards. I would calculate that there was one that DID NOT creak as apposed to the other way around . My husband and I can make frequent bathroom trips during the night so you can imagine the noise every time nature called. Add in to the equation that Room 325 has a bedroom and a small sitting area to walk through before arriving at the toilet! .This was not a cheap overnight as B&B was 325 GBP did we felt really short changed as well as tired. We reported the issue with reception as have had no contact since. Breakfast was standard fare and if wanting anything different like poached eggs or kipper etc there was a hefty surcharge. If they charge a not insubstantial tariff for staying at their hotel they must be prepared to pay to maintain it to a reasonable standard. Positives , plenty of parking, nice grounds and overall cleanliness was good. If staying here avoid room 325.

The hotels grounds are amazing. Even if you don't stay there, it is worth a visit. The restaurant wasn't very good, and the food was expensive. It seems like the hotel has seen better days. Maybe it was worth the price back in the day, but now seems overpriced .

Valley view room gorgeous
A very warm welcome from reception staff 17/08 where we were provided with a shot of whiskey. The service of staff after check in was disappointing as non of them were interested and only wanted to get the job done and not interact with guests. No warmth from housekeeping or in the restaurant. The bar entertainment was lacklustre and the man performing also looked like he’d rather be elsewhere. We had a lovely valley view room- stunning view and the decor was gorgeous. Had a fan running all night as the heat in the room was exceptional and windows don’t open. Breakfast was quite basic quality food. Plates nice and hot as was the buffet hot food which is a big positive for me.

Hotel is situated in a beautiful setting.We used the pool and found it to be clean and well maintained. One minor point I’m not sure that the vegetable based milk to be used for the coffee in our room was a good idea!! Overall really enjoyed our stay and have no hesitation about booking here again.
