A stunning location with beautiful rooms.
Pros:

The room was well presented and very clean with spectacular views. The Mill is in a wonderful location and is very peaceful.

Cons:

We were disappointed with our meals. The Guinness and ale pie was watery although it tasted ok. The cooked breakfast wasn't great either. The Mill did seem to be fully booked which may have impacted things.

Last minute weekend away
Pros:

Nice size room, historical building, good value breakfast, friendly staff.

Cons:

It's an old building so don't expect AC. We had a first floor room at the front that over looked the smoking area. Unfortunately we had to close the windows which made the room hotter.

Super Lage, nette Bar und Personal, leider nicht sauber und sehr in die Jahre gekommende Zimmer. Dafür zu Teuer. Das Frü
Pros:

Die Lage und die Bar.

Cons:

Es war nicht Sauber (Toilette), die Zimmer müssen dringend renoviert werden und neu ausgestattet werden. Der Tisch hat überall geklebt (Weichmacher lösen sich?). Das Frühstück war nicht gut. Kein frischer Kaffee oder Obst.

Sudbury town is worth a visit, the hotel isn't the highlight of the trip.
Pros:

Lovely building in a beautiful setting.

Cons:

Sadly the hotel is slowly deteriorating, breakfast get slightly less impressive every year, it seems to close the facilities earlier and earlier, and each visit, I feel the customers are becoming less and less valued.

We enjoyed our stay, the staff were very nice (could probably do with more) the breakfast was good.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

We booked two rooms, a twin and a double. The twin was very nice indeed, unfortunately the double was small and on third floor, no lift and the stairs were worn and tired looking
