Lovely hotel. Renounces to be at the foot of a National Historic beauty spot. Inside felt cosy and warm. As we are in the middle of summer the beautiful windows are part of a feature in good working order inside our room. The staff are friendly and the cooking is excellent.

I always enjoy the stay at this hotel. It's a little old, a little rustic, but it's right on The woodlands and you generally get a quiet night's sleep

This building is an old construction and we can not judge this in pictures.Entrance area is smelly and some rooms are also smelly due to mould and trees just outside the rooms. Whenever you plan to visit this place you can consider these things.

As a family we booked 2 rooms b&b to attend a wedding so luckily didn't have to spend much time in the hotel. The dining room and bar looked lovely but beyond that the carpets were stained, the paint was coming off the doors and it smelt damp and musty. We were in downstairs rooms and there were no central lights, only table lamps & wall lights with thick shades making the rooms really dark. The extractor fans in the bathrooms didn't work so the rooms were damp, smelly and there was mould all over the window recesses and the carpets were really stained. Our TV kept losing it's signal, the "complimentary" toiletries were 3 dispensers of hand wash/lotion, there was one packet of biscuits & tea/coffee sachets that weren't replenished the next morning - infact it didn't look like anyone had been in the room to clean as the bins were in emptied and the wet towels hadn't moved. The breakfast menu had 5 options - full English, 3 types of egg options and blueberry pancakes that the waitress admitted they never have. There was tea, coffee and water. Not suitable for children as there was no cereal or jam available. I had to pay the waitress for a cordial from the bar for my daughter. I've given it 1 star as the towels were nice and there was plenty of hot water. Also my mum has poor mobility so the receptionist swapped her 3rd floor room for ground floor. There was no lift and nobody offered to help with bags so it would have been a nightmare getting everything up the stairs.

We just wanted a room for 6 nights. The room was clean and the bed comfortable, but the floorboards need attention.The hot water was excellent but the sink didn't hold the water. Even with the plug in, the water just ran away. Also the hot tap needs replacing. We had the utmost difficulty in turning it off. There was a constant drip from it Having said all this, our stay was comfortable and in a very quiet area.

The property on arrival looked quite nice, it was only once we got inside everything went down hill. I booked a double room for starters and ended up with 2 singles that were awful to sleep on. The room was shocking, damp patches on the hall carpets, window frame in room was very old & tired with cracks in the glass, same in other rooms as spoke with other people staying there. The breakfast was VERY basic, never staying there again

The staff and restaurant were great, the hotel itself is overdue a refit. Also there were contractors in the bar who were way over the top and drunk as can be loud and swearing. Not great if your are staying over for a weekend break. However again the staff were great. Thanks.

The downstairs was lovely, Had dinner and it was really nice with excellent service. However the room was very tired and could do with a makeover. Everything we needed was in the room but I think it’s in need of decorating.
