Have stayed here before and it was excellent, stay, food very good. Very different now quite stark due to Covid 19 restrictions and no restaurant working. Breakfast in a paper bag outside your door with rather sad contents. Little ambience sadly.

Meh! Average hotel
Not so amazing. Hotel lacks character or any atmosphere. Originally got a room just above reception which smelt like the open fires they had downstairs, I opened the windows to air the room and when I tried to close the window it fell apart exposing the sharp glass because the frame was so rotten. We were given a new room which was far nicer although much smaller - very pleased though as they had several Christmas parties whilst we were there and the original room would have been very noisy with merry people shouting! Hotel felt quite dated on the whole, the original room we were give (25) was particularly so and seemed quite dirty but new room better. Didn’t eat here and didn’t have any desire to either to be honest. Good location for Oxford and Newbury though. Went to The Red House nearby for dinner which was nice. The hotel have what looks like a lovely pool - and the reason we booked but later discovered that it’s been sold off and you’re not able to use this, the gym is a room which was closed too. On the whole, for the price - I’d say the location was good, free parking too. But wouldn’t stay again. I’d paid the £10-20 extra for a different hotel with an atmosphere, cleaner, up to date with more facilities. Be warned the lane from the road to the hotel is very rough, with plenty of potholes and rubble in the road.

Nice stay but communal areas need a good clean
On the face of it lovely hotel with gorgeous setting. Staff were very helpful but in short supply when there was a wedding on. Rooms were clean but very old creaky building so you hear everyone walking about overhead and in the hallways. Nice shower and clean bathroom. Net curtains torn and room a little cooler on the old fashioned side. For the price however it is what you’d expect altho I did get a good rate for booking early. Problem with the kitchen meant we couldn’t order any hot food for dinner other than pizzas (over priced) or sandwiches. Breakfast room offered nice view outside but the dirty glass roof as did the cobwebs ms dead flies hanging from the chandeliers!

Room 34
the hotel itself looked nice and was reasonabley priced for a last minute booking , I stayed in room 34 which is Twin bed - that was okay. unfortunately I didn't get much sleep because of a generator right outside the bedroom window. I did tell the reception on checking out but couldn't stay to sort due to another appointment elsewhere They didn't have tea / coffee ready in the room either as had to ask on reception. . he grounds were lovely and peaceful though although the secret garden area and old tennis court part looks like is in need of some TLC as looks old and tired. If I were to stay again it will have to be booked earlier in hope of getting a better allocation.

Wedding stay
Had an overnight stay during a recent wedding. Hotel and grounds are lovely as are the staff. Food was good . Drinks pricey. The room we stayed in was comfortable and quiet but a little dated. Hotel and lobby etc very nice, need to spend some attention to the rooms.
