Dreadful place. The room was terrible. Very dated and in desperate need of decorating. I would not recommend this to anyone and would never stay here again unless I was desperate.

Very tired hotel that needs a lot of renovation to make it nice again. Bad smell in the corridors, walls are dirty, needs a good clean up and a lick of paint. Bathroom in my room looked like it was from the 70s. Health club not open. Breakfast is very short (7 to 9). Overall v poor 2/10

Beautiful Hotel

Overall I'm very happy with my stay. The hotel and grounds are beautiful. The staff are excellent and even printed out some historic information for my son who is studying the Victorian era in school.
Beautiful entrance

so good

Before arriving, on the long drive there, the staff were nice enough to give me and my partner a heads-up (phone call) to welcome us into the hotel and update us on any problems they were facing at the time (they said that the kitchen was currently closed, however they were happy for us to order a delivery at the hotel), which I thought was a nice touch. The nature and environment surrounding the hotel are amazing, with huge trees and nearby lakes and waterfalls. Entering the hotel was beautiful, with marble pillars, golden ceilings, and comfy sofas. We had a standard room, which was more than enough. We had a TV, a good-sized bed, a bath/shower with pressure, closeted mirrors and even a bidet. And this was only £60 a night, such a bargain, especially with the location. I thought that everything was up to a very high standard. The only issue I had with the hotel, which isn't a big deal considering how cheap the stay was, but the drink prices at the hotel bar are extortionate, 200ml of classic Coke for £3.50, so if you're planning on staying at the hotel, I would strongly recommend taking your own drinks. Side note: the swimming pool hasn't been open for a year, which is fine, I think I just got confused with some of the pictures of the hotel online, just thought to let you know before any of you decide to take your swimming stuff. Anyway, I was thoroughly impressed by the hotel and the lovely staff, I will be going again.

One disappointed customer.

The bedrooms were comfortable but the waiters let the side down with their reluctance to serve us the breakfast we asked for. The Saturday staff were very efficient and courteous but the Sunday shift were altogether different. They claimed they were extremely busy when the hotel was far from full and not catering for wedding parties. We had been waiting thirty minutes for our food to be told that they had not taken our order which was standard fare to the menu. It took a further fifteen minutes to receive our order without any accoutrements to the basic dish. This hotel is one of our favourites and we have never had cause for complaint before. Moreover we respect the staff there and have come to know many of them on a personal basis. So we felt very let down by our experience this time.

Could do with some refurbishment but OK.

Hotel is rather tired and dated. Room somewhat dusty and in need of refurbishment though bed was certainly clean and comfortable. Excellent breakfast with very good choice. All the staff were friendly and helpful. One thing which was not acceptable was that the smoke alarm in my room had been covered with a plastic bag. Most likely from a previous occupant but should have been spotted and removed by housekeeping. Overall reasonable value for the price of the room.

Booked the junior suite. Didnt come with a bathrobe as it stated, no fresh water in the room. Jaccuzi bath was hard to turn off due to button. No body wash in the shower bit. Other than that the place is stunning and the staff are amazing so i would go back

Lovely staff - Hotel is tired

This is a beautiful building, the blurb says it’s recently undergone renovation…. Not sure where, it’s tired, we had a Deluxe King Room, there was a good tea tray when we found it, a big metal tray with two water glasses but no water, there was only one bedside table not two, no useable plugs near the bed and no light over the mirror in the bedroom. The bathroom was clean but tired and the water pressure was poor. When we checked in the lovely lady asked us to fill in the forms with pencil as they didn’t have any pens?!? The hotel bar wasn’t well stocked and lacked and snacks like crisps or nuts, if you order a cup of tea there is no biscuit and the staff “don’t have any” they can give or sell you, apparently they used to have snacks. Not enough staff at breakfast to clear plates, you needed to wait for staff to be available to come to serve in the bar, whether time of day. If feels like a key member of staff has left and things are getting missed. It’s a shame we looked forward to a treat stay away in a nice hotel and we were disappointed.
