2/10 Poor

This place is deceptive. The whole country manor image draws you in. Then you find out the rooms are out the back and are no better than a two star roadside motel. Breakfast restaraunt feels like a commercial cafeteria although food ok. Very clean and staff are outstanding. However you are paying four star prices for two star accommodation. The stars are because they have a pool and a spa not because they have nice accommodation. Very tired and disappointing. Overall poor and overpriced.
Shaun, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful, old building set in lovely gardens. There was a lot of open space and the accommodation was well spread out. It was nice to have a terrace to sit and enjoy a coffee. The Spa was very nice but I can imagine it gets very busy at certain times of the day.

Linen & room clean . Great water pressure with shower. Lovely to have Birthday card & gift. Outside stairways looked like some needed replacing. Brilliant breakfast , but dead & alive flies evident on inside of windows.

Incredible staff, lovely surroundings and fab breakfast!
Julia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

One night bed and breakfast stay. Excellent facilities including both indoor and outdoor pools with spa facilities. Very comfortable bed and well equipped room. The only slight criticism was the bathroom could do with a refurbishment. (Room 18). We choose to have an evening meal at the ferryman pub, just a short walk away but the cooked breakfast was excellent. We will definitely stay here again.

Lovely settings and period hotel, great facilities, food is good albeit a little pricey, rooms could do with updating. But generally quiet and very good amenities.

Lovely stay. We had a beautiful room located near hotel facilities. Would go back.
Elisha, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent stay. Great facilities and staff that went out of their way to cater for a food intolerance (unfortunately this is not what we usually experience!). We wish we could have stayed longer!
Emma, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The description is very misleading as it seems to be a beautiful country house and yet the accommodation is in these very basic modern huts. The pool also appears to serve as a public leisure centre so it’s full of kids and so busy that it’s hard to even get a seat despite being a guest of the hotel. The changing rooms were filthy with water all over the floor and there were no facilities around the pool area for any drinks or refreshments. Our room was not clean with an empty beer can left in the cabinet and dirty hand prints all over the mirror. It was very disappointing and I would not recommend this location.
Laura, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good short stay, staff busy and room service unresponsive
Nick, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel. Staff were super-friendly and helpful and the food in the restaurant was excellent. The room was spacious, well equipped and quiet. Its a great location and not too far into the town if you want more dining options.

Family spa trip

We had a lovely time. Our initial room wasnt suitable as the bunk beds were too small for my girls but they changed the room for us which was good. The swimming pool was lovely & warm. The breakfast was also good.
