Voor verblijf voor 1 nacht is het ok, maar de wifi verbinding is zwaar onder de maat.
Pros:

Mooie locatie met veel parkeergelegenheid

Cons:

De wifi voorziening op de kamer deed het helaas niet, ook na het advies van de receptionist kregen wij geen goede verbinding. In de huidige tijd is dit zeer onvoldoende.

Pros:

Food and staff were great. Breakfast room was wonderful and full of character

Cons:

The bedroon, on the second floor, was not quite what I was expecting. Whilst comfortable it was somewhat shabby, paint peeling, windows lacking shuttiing furnature. However, whilst that could have been better the overall experience was good.

Family birthday weekend away
Pros:

The staff were lovely. All friendly and smiley and ready to help in an instant. The food was amazing, breakfast and dinner. The hotel has a lot of history if you are into that sort of thing, very olde worldy and there is a chapel attached to the hotel which is almost a 1000 years old! It is set in a lovely setting in the countryside about a 10 minute walk from the village of Rothley. There is also a historical railway a 10 minute walk away and we spent a couple of hours on the platform watching the old steam trains coming and going!

Cons:

We were booked into one of the superior bedrooms - room 4. It was very dark and foreboding due to all the wood panelling on the walls. I am sure some people would love this look but it's just not for us, unfortunately. The room was a little tired looking too - the arm of the chair was threadbare. My brothers room, room 3 was much more to our taste, no wood panelling so much lighter and room 11 was a lovely little room too.
