A beautiful spot, loxation and accomodation just needs a few tweaks
Pros:

Was a beautiful spot and perfect to get into the local town

Cons:

There was anyway we could get in late at night and had to wait so maybe a access card needed? A long wait to be served for breakfast

Pros:

Lovely historic building and the irregularities which added to the charm of the stay. Views were superb. Very friendly staff. Food was good quality and cooked to perfection.

Cons:

There was nothing in particular. My only comment would be that i did not get all the tv channels available as it would not load free view and some were pixelated.

Proper country house
Pros:

This was a very last minute booking on a busy weekend so we weren’t too sure what the room would be like. The hotel itself is beautiful, proper country house, grade 2 listed and kept in a non glitzy, classic manner. Not super slick like some over done up ‘country’ house hotels, just super comfortable. Gorgeous building, lovely terrace, long country views, it was just peaceful and nice. The staff were young but full of smiles, more than competent and the service was good. The food was excellent. We only stayed one night but would def stay again.

Lovely venue for a short stay
Pros:

The staff were very friendly, with the younger ones putting in a particular effort. The room was spacious with a recently updated bathroom. Excellent choice of hot breakfast dishes.

Cons:

Would have liked croissants at breakfast - perhaps not quintessentially British. ;-). As night owls, we found the 11:30ish closure of the lounges and bar a little restrictive.

Lovely birthday meal.
Pros:

Lovely meal at Willington Hall. There was no trouble for them to accommodate the fact that two of our party don’t eat garlic. The chef was able to adapt their choice of food. That is going the extra mile .

Overall pleasant, although sometimes staff would be hard to find and some fixings weren’t properly maintained.
Pros:

Location and setting was extremely tranquil. Staff were pleasant and helpful in the main.

Cons:

Some furnishings and decor was either broken or not working. 2 lights in the bathroom, a couple of window panes cracked and bath panel loose. I don’t expect perfection in an also Manor House but for the price I would expect a bit better, especially considering the 4 star rating.

Pros:

Beautiful setting .Staff very good nothing was an issue extremely friendly and professional . Food very good lovely meal unfortunately missed the breakfast due to our early start before 8 the following day but the staff managed to look after us with a snack.

Perfect stay in a gorgeous country house delightful will be recommended to my family and friends
Pros:

Location was stunning, it was perfectly situated in a rural country location views were superb was sister was pleasantly surprised at the setting
Breakfast was delicious although we had a bit too much toast. Had further options of cereal too.

Cons:

Sausages could have been cooked a bit more and one piece of toast would have been enough.
