I stayed one night here to attend a nearby birthday party. This is a charming, characterful hotel. The en-suite room was perfectly equipped, very clean and its quiet and peaceful - the garden is very tranquil too. Breakfast was great quality and service was personal and attentive. I can't go without saying a thank you. I left a kindle in the room and the owner immediately contacted me and posted it first class, taking care that it was well packaged. This is stand out service in my book and I have no hesitation in recommending if you prefer charm, character and service than indistinguishable chain hotels.
We had a very enjoyable one night stay. The property and grounds are stunning. The reception staff were friendly, efficient, and very welcoming upon check-in. Our bedroom and bathroom was clean and modern with great amenities. The bed was super comfy. The Spa facilities are fabulous, with a nice size pool and clean facilities, which we made the most of before dinner and again the next morning, before checking out. We didn't make a reservation for dinner, which didn't phase the restaurant manager ( think Sylvia was her name ). We were happy enjoying our free drink ( courtesy of the drink voucher you get for booking direct ) at the bar, and we didn't have to wait long to be seated. The atmosphere was great, with all staff being efficient and friendly. A special mention to Milly, who looked after us. She was observant, friendly, and chatty, making us feel even more relaxed. The food was outstanding. Tasty, hot, with good-size portions. The only letdown and the reason for not giving full marks for this review was the breakfast. Nice attempts to present the hot breakfast foods attractively. However, the buffet area has clearly been designed to look pretty rather than achieve its function. The hot lamps don't line up with the hot counter and, therefore, are not over the food. The food temperature was not good and left us with our final experience of the hotel as less than positive. Thankfully, with the great dinner the prior night, we knew this was not indicative of the other areas of the hotel. Had we only experienced breakfast, it would have deterred us from having dinner at the hotel. We also felt, with the coffee machine so close to the blazing hot roller toaster, uncomfortable and clustered with other guests in the most congested areas. Maybe the two areas people use the most at breakfast - coffee and toast - should be separated for ease of use? And with only cold plates available, it didn't improve the breakfast. Having said that, we would definitely stay again, probably giving breakfast a miss.

We have stayed in over 15 hotels in the past year or so but this is the only time I have felt I disappointed enough to write a review. We stayed in an ‘executive room’. The room needs updating. Pillows are yellow underneath the case. Paintwork needs touching up. The shower head was so full of limescale that water was trying to escape elsewhere. The worst thing though was that the room was so hot. The underfloor heating in the huge bathroom was turned up high and would not turn down with a thermostat in the room. We had to sleep with three windows open which is not ideal or safe when you are at street level. Another guest came to our door to complain that their room was also very hot. Evening meal at the pub was ‘ok’. At breakfast the food was served on hot plates but the food was actually cold. The pub staff were very welcoming though so can’t complain about that. Location was wonderful in a very picturesque village.
