Pros:

I booked a stay in the spa bath room as a treat after a bad day at work. The parking was convenient and both receptionist i met were polite and helpful. However the spa bath in my room was old and not as clean as i expected- there were hairs and the jets looked dirty- i cleaned it myself and used it anyway as i just wanted to relax on that day and mainly booked my stay because of the spa bath. I had a good night sleep as the bed was very comfy but unfortunately i did a mistake and forgot my phone charger in the room when checked out on the next day. I phoned reception the day after and they told me the charger was not found by the cleaners which i found very disappointing as i only had a backpack and my charger was definitely not in it. I understand that forgetting my charger was my bad but however took it could at least wait a few days before keeping it. That said i won't visit Badgers Mount again and won't recommend it to others

Cons:

Bathroom cleanness
My phone charger was taken

The service could be better
Pros:

The location of the hotel was ideal to where we were going. Just 4 minutes drive away. Also, it was easy to find the hotel to check in at night.

Cons:

On arrival we were given the wrong room because they mistakenly gave it to someone else. We had to show proof of reservation before they could do anything. They had to relocate that person and prepare our superior twin room that I booked.

Pros:

Professional team. Great service. Excellent food and drink. Loved the room (junior suite) - very big and bright. Comfortable bed.

Cons:

Noise from a shower in another room, especially at 5.15am!

Our shower was a little difficult to adjust. Quickly became too hot or cold but managed well enough.

Ticked all the boxes for me and a few more
Pros:

A great Hotel with friendly, efficient staff. Especially Dee who is the "Breakfast lady", her smile and friendly greeting in the morning makes your day😀 The restaurant staff are equally welcoming and make you feel at home. And the food is great, correctly cooked and presented with style.
Love the grounds, and speaking to the Robert the gardener about how he plans the flowers etc to reflect seasons is really informative. And just loved the robot he uses to clean the swimming pool !
A great place to stay and I will be going again soon.
