The actual hotel is idyllically situated in a gorgoues cotswold village location, the venue offers a lovely bar and dining experience as well as a more formal dining room ... and that for us is where the loveliness began and ended. With the cost of things the way they are in this current day, we accept that nothing is cheap anymore and at best, trying to get value for your money is a struggle to say the least. So, we paid our £120 for a double room (Not inc breakfast) and whilst the rooms was okay, it was certainly in need for some TLC to say the least. To fair, it was clean(ish) and the bed was comfortable but again, thats where the good ends. The decor is beyond tired, the bathroom was really shabby (indluding a dented bin and a horrible plastic wall mounted hand pump), the bedding and furnishing is in great need of replacing and the television and remote (that was held together with sellotape) simply needs removing, binning & replacing. Our overall stay was nice enough but I'd rather have paid a little more and recieved a little more. I guess it just about does what it says on the tin. How ever, marketing as a wedding venue is questionable... when spending any money these days you really do want to feel the guest is the priority. We dined in the bar, we found the menu & food to be lovely, the staff were all super too ... a shame that despite several requests from other guests previously that they don't offer a cheese board dessert option but other than that, a really de

Disappointed
Overall, the condition of the accommodate is tired and is of need redecoration. The bathroom was clean but the shower head was inappropriate for female guests and the bath tape dropped all night. The restaurant was was in poor set of repair, the tables were damaged and not well cleaned. Cutlery was in a used state with only one size for all courses!

The hotel room was lovely, we had a family room and was so spacious and clean. It was very warm in the room due to the 30degree weather and there was a nice suprise of a fan in the room! We will definitely be staying again.

Clean but pricy and in need of modernisation
Bed was comfy and room clean and quiet but decor and bathroom fittings quite dated and would benefit from a refurb to bring up to modern standard. Room pricy for the overall quality.

Excellent Visit - just needs a phone connection.
Once we were in the hotel everything was very good with no real complaints except that a breakfast earlier than 8am would have been much appreciated to facilitate a days walking ahead of us. The hotel was exceptionally clean and tidy and the reception staff were very helpful and friendly. What would have been really good would be the ability to communicate with these outstanding professionals in person, at the booking and confirmation stage. Having to navigate the online system that did not (seemingly) enable me to book breakfast with our bed and have to book an evening meal via another website in some sort of Krypton Factor test that left me in need of another weekend break but alas, too exhausted to book! The inability to easily confirm our booking (in a 30 second phone call say) meant that there was a anxiety-laden anticipation of whether we had a room for the night right up until the moment we engaged with the Reception Manager. Overall, we had lovely and highly recommendable stay. Thank you very much. PS. It's good to talk!

Lovely hotel, and fantastic staff. My bed was super comfy and they gave me loads of pillows (a necessity that most hotels neglect to provide). The room was quiet, and I slept like a baby. The bar is great. Dining room is pretty standard, the food was fine.

Lovely local area. Room warm, clean and tidy. Breakfast was really, really good. - No sockets by the bedside. Couldn't charge devices over night there. Appreciate it's an old building. Cables could be run around the side though?? - On arrival, staff made us feel like an imposition. We ordered food from the bar (chips) but then a live band started playing and it was impossible to hear one another. We (2 of us) asked if it would be possible to sit in the restaurant area where it was quieter (there were still guests there from earlier). The member of staff we spoke to was rather unkind about it all. A simple "Really sorry we can't... You could try sitting..." would have been totally fine.
