The worst hotel we have ever stayed at
Where do I start !! Bedroom - no towels. Run out of loo rolls. Toiletries not as described as shown on website. A dress was hanging up in wardrobe (not mine). Bathroom was mouldy Dining room. Carpet needed a vacuum there was chips on the floor at breakfast so clearly no one had vacuumed up from the evening before. it was the same poor state the next day at breakfast. If you state the veggie sausages where quorn then you should serve quorn (though I did get quorn on my second day) The lounge carpet smells really bad hence I decided not to eat in there with the dog Needless to say we won’t come back even if it was free

Olde Worlde charm, sumptuous wood panelled lounge, bar and nice restaurant with good food. Some aspects a little dated and could benefit from an upgrade.

We booked two rooms for a weekend wedding. The rooms were located on a separate building that we had to walk to down hill or through muddy grass. The two rooms are very outdated and not as clean as we expected. There were loads of spiderwebs and dead both live and dead spiders at the entrance and in the bedrooms. The bathroom had mould and the shower dripped all day and night. The walls are also super thin and we could hear phones vibrating and doors being slammed all around. We also had no choice in weather or not we wanted housekeeping. There was no sign to put on the door so we were surprised to find someone had been in our rooms without our consent. Rooms given were no where near what is advertised on Expedia. The service and staff were fantastic though.

Room was lovely. Hairdryer was very dirty but was replaced quickly and easily. Staff were all friendly and helpful no question was unanswered. Being on my own at breakfast was not as awful as I thought it might be due to the friendly staff. Thanks
