Cons:

The whole hotel needs refurbishment. It all needs tidying up, cleaning and painting. Furniture in the room looked like it needed to be in a second hand shop.

Cons:

We ate at the pub, not the restaurant at Orton Hall. We were tired and hungry after a long journey and wished afterwards that we had said we didn’t like the food. The salad was wilted, the veggie burger was overcooked and the brownies were overcooked too. Disappointing when the hotel, facilities and grounds were so lovely.

Just enough to be OK, nothing more
Pros:

Breakfast was good, property was very nice
Evening bar service (internal bar, not Ramblewood) was excellent

Cons:

Reception staff only managed minimum, seems like I was a problem or disruption for their chatting.
On-site bar Ramblewood, unstaffed, took ages to find someone to order lunch

We have been before and we will come again.
Pros:

It’s a stunning location, and a very impressive building. Twice we have been and had heritage four poster rooms. I can definitely recommend. Huge room-enormous bed and lovely views over the garden. The spa facility is great-sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, pool. We ate at the Ramblewood Inn on site, and it was great (as were the staff). The breakfast is one of the best, great selection.

Cons:

Unfortunately we were in a mini heatwave and the room was incredibly hot. The fan we had in the room was very noisy. Other than that. All was great.
