Breakfast was ok. Would have liked oat milk to be available and better quality bread like sourdough.

Our bathroom (room 32) was very small with no ledges to put toiletries etc on.

As above.

Attending a diesel train gala on the Great Central Railway, Rothley Station is nearby
Pros:

Rothley Court Hotel is a Grade 1 listed building that is simply full of history. There is a huge selection available for breakfast.
The restaurant offers a varied menu in the evening. Archie a member of staff helping behind the bar & working at table service was particularly helpful.

Cons:

Because of its age, the windows in our room, particularly in the bathroom were susceptible to condensation.
