Feature Room was not great, shower pressure poor and shower head didn't stay put, water temperature intermittent and barely warm enough. No marshmallows for the outdoor fire, opened bottle of milk in the fridge, two single beds pushed together and not bolted but even when I managed to bolt them it was so uncomfortable trying to sleep we might as well have had 2 single beds separately. When moving beds which was easy to do as they were on wheels and hard floor it became obvious only partial cleans of the room were being done as behind the bed was filthy dust, dirt and hair everywhere. The bathroom skirting and all skirting was dusty. Grout on floor tiles coming out and generally tired everywhere. All in all not worth £300+ per night, if you charge this amount you have to at least have a clean room to start with!

A very disappointing stay. A very pretty property in a lovey location let down by poor staff and a lack of management. No i will change my mind of this . The staff were not bad they clearly had been given no training and no direction, after complaining 3 times in 2 days. nobody sorted any of this issues nor did management every get back to us. save your money and book somewhere else

The hotel was tired and a bit shabby. Bottles and glasses not cleared away for over 24hours and bird poo all over the exterior staircase outside the room. For £350.00 a night I would expect a little more. I’d also expect to be able to use the hotel pool. I couldn’t.

Loved the location and surrounding area and the reception staff were really helpful and informed. It was an except hot day and the air conditioning was less than useless. Never spent a more uncomfortable night. The whole breakfast experience was awful. The lady that meet us was rude and off hand, they were definitely under staffed and every request was meet with ‘I can but that will take some time’. That was a simple request for more milk and then coffee. There were no options for my child for breakfast that weren’t overly complicated and fussy. I know it’s an al a carte menu, but if the hotel caters for children then shouldn’t the menu too. We weren’t asking for much and maybe just a plain cereal or other spreads for the toast, but it was meet with a straight up no. Overall it wasn’t worth the extra amount we paid and the experience put me off staying again.

Amazing tranquil location and a lovely property. Warm welcome on arrival and very helpful staff. Dining room not open on Sunday or Monday at the time of my visit, but the Old Swan next door was available for guests from the Mill.

The hotel is in an idyllic setting and well presented. Sadly, the spa facilities are only available to guests who purchase a treatment. There was some confusion with communication: I received an email telling me the hotel was closed after I had booked and indeed there was a sign at the entrance of the hotel indicating it was closed, when it was not. The dinner menu was not the most appealing, although the food served was good. Breakfast did not quite meet expectations. Overall, good and I had a pleasant stay.

Disappointed
Disappointed with the stay, although the room was clean and comfortable there was no iron or board in the room as the information stated which I discovered in the morning. Coffee .and tea proved but milk missing. To was woken at 6 am with the noise of an off road buggy moving around with loud engine. I raised my concern at reception on leaving to be advised they would log my points and that was it

Nice setting however the rooms/doors aren’t soundproof at all so you can hear every conversation and door slamming. Rooms are opposite the wedding event venue so there is loud music until 12. The hotel also didn’t have any earplugs to offer. Additionally we stayed for 2 nights and the hotel unfortunately took payment in a bizarre way - they took both a £465 pre authorisation when we arrived and an additional £365 on the day we checked out, meaning my credit card had a pending balance of £830 despite only a 2 night stay. This seems illogical and they should have used the pre auth charge as payment instead.
