Duncan

Disliked: Staff & service
Many factors about the position of the room and poor maintenance made for an unpleasant stay. Kitchen playing loud music and shouting until it closed and then kitchen deliveries early morning. Breakfast also not great, undercooked egg whites and massive portion of dry granola and the smallest amount of yogurt to go with it. All in all not good, fed this back to management via email and heard nothing, clearly not very bothered about customer service. Won’t return.
Muffins still cold in the middle, egg whites not cooked.
Completely disproportionate granola to yogurt ratio

Great place to stay, service and food was outstanding in the pub for dinner, the rooms were quirky and very clean, if you like an old building with character the windmill will be a good fit

Good stay without being amazing

Overall a nice stay at a good price with a friendly welcome. room was lovely and clean with good facilities Tv set up needs looking at nice to have amazon and netflix etc but whole system is all apps no freeview or sky to just watch channel of choice as you normally would. Problem with heating sorted quickly. Lose tap on sink minor but reported. A lovely stay overall and would return ideal for serious foodies with expensive but good quality food menu which we didnt use as we had other plans. Perfect location for a leeds castle trip or a overnight stay to onward european trip or just a couples get away at the right price.

Highly recommend staying here!

The hotel was really lovely and comfortable. They thought of everything you could possibly need, incuding individually wrapped ear plugs, in case of noisy next door guests! It was also so authentic in its decor

Pub with character

Stopped overnight enroute to LeShuttle, very convenient just off the M20, in a village. Room spacious and comfy, with good quality tea/coffee. Enjoyed a tasty meal downstairs in the restaurant. In the room you could hear the people in the restaurant talking, but it was silent after 10pm (and they do provide earplugs if needed). Having originally booked room only, we decided that we would have breakfast as the dinner had been good. However when we went down the external stairs from the accommodation, the pub was all locked up and the agency chef was standing outside not able to get in. We waited until 8:05, but decided to head off as we needed to catch our train. It was a shame as breakfast was advertised in the car park as being available every day feom 8am.
