Comfortable and warm, needs a bit of TLC
Pros:

Room was very comfortable and roomy, bath and shower very adequate. Complimentary tea/coffee and biscuits was a nice touch.

Cons:

The room didn't have a socket by the bed and there were some areas of decorating which needed a little touch up in particular in the bathroom.
Charging £17.99 a night for my dog is a bit excessive.

Pros:

Clean comfortable room, nice dining and reception area..great staff ,lovely location.

Cons:

Being older no grip handle to support getting in and out of the shower/ bath...an accident waiting to happen. Unable to safely use that facility, had to wash around the sink..not impressed and I,m sure I,m not the only one.

Pros:

The staff are excellent and room was exactly what we wanted
Breakfast and the overall ambiance was superb to relax for the weekend and will make this a regular getaway to relax and use the facilities next time as my wife and I recognised that we had stayed here before about 13 years ago and we still cannot believe it is only a 3* it pits many 5* hotels we have stayed in to shame !!!!
Others please take note how to run a hotel as this is the benchmark and standards are too drawer
Thanks again 🙏
Look forward to next time

Lovely hotel - but not a spa break experience
Pros:

Staff delightful and friendly, relaxing lobby area, good quiet location with nice grounds. Evening dinner extremely good menu and very good quality. Nice upgrade to larger room.

Cons:

"Spa" is being generous. Pool and jacuzzi area, dark messy, cramped and in dire need of a makeover. Jacuzzi extremely poor condition, No music or suitable seating area. Saunas are poor quality and separated in male female toilets. Not a relaxing experience which was a shame it was the purpose of our stay...

Overpriced for a spa break.
Pros:

Friendly staff, nice grounds. Food good but expensive.

Cons:

Really basic spa facilities for the price. Never nice to walk past urinals to use the Sauna, pool was cold and only 4 chairs and 2 loungers to sit down on. No steam room either.

I enjoyed the break and relax. I would visit again.
Pros:

Was lovely and not too big. Just like a Manor House. Nice ambience and staff were lovely. The spa area was also a nice atmosphere. Intimate and cosy. Dogs were welcome and that was a bonus.

Cons:

The only issue I would mention is the dog cost. I normally pay 10 per night at other places but Flackley charge £20. Just saying ……

Pros:

Location

Cons:

Have stayed at Flackley a number of times in 2025 & this was my first of 2026. Was disappointed with my room this stay. The previous two stays I had a much much more premium room. My room this time round was tired & lack lustre.
