Lovely friendly place with good facilities although a bit 'busy'
Pros:

Very friendly welcome - all the staff were very friendly - bedroom/bathroom very clean and comfortable - with a (small) bath. Breakfast was excellent and freshly cooked and friendly staff on hand to help and take our orders. Spent a couple of hours in the bar over drinks to relax after our journey, again the bar staff very friendly and attentive. Overall very pleasant stay.

Cons:

Bedroom was on first floor up a 'narrow' timber stairs. Could hear sound from other guests TV at about 11.30pm and trains passing nearby occasionally sounding horn. It was a very windy night and the youngsters could hear a 'whistling' noise outside their first floor bedroom (maybe a vent terminal/cowl?) through the night.

Pros:

Afternoon tea was lovely, so much food.
Lovely waitress, enjoyable experience

Cons:

We paid for 75+ for our room, we checking in and dropped our bags then went out for a meal. By this point it was late and to late to change rooms. The bathroom was not good. The bath had broken seals and joins/grouting. The grouting was a discoloured, missing, pulling apart. Just didn't look appealing and clean. The shower tap had clearly been moved and changed position due the hole and cracked tiles. Unable to use the bath, you couldn't enjoy yourself as would be staring at the rundown grouting, gaps and discoloured.
On further looking other residents have had the same issue with this room, as described the same. Room facing the carpark, room 6 ect.
The bed was solid. And you can hear everything from your neighbours, bathroom light on, off, on off. When they walked around there room, our floor board moved. Could literally feel the movement from our bed.
Would not recommend stopping

I regularly stay at Badgers Mount when travelling for work in Barwell. This is a an excellent hotel with a good restaurant and a hearty breakfast. The rooms are generous, comfortable and well equipped, and the staff are always friendly. There is plenty of parking too.

Cons:

The room heating wasn't on when I initially got to the room, but it soon heated up fine.
