Lovely hotel, very accommodating. We would book it again if we are in the area.
Pros:

The hotel was easy to find with plenty of parking. Our room was upgraded and was lovely with a superb bed. Ensuite really nice with a powerful shower and lots of little extras such as a sewing kit, comb, toothbrush, shower cap etc. together with a generous helping of toiletries. We had a lovely meal in the evening and the breakfast was well catered for. We had the traditional english breakfast which was very nice and hot as well. Plenty of other choices for breakfast as well.

Cons:

There wasn't anything we didn't like.

Lovely wedding with lovely people in a lovely place.
Pros:

We attended a wedding at the hotel so staying overnight was very convenient. Food was great, service good and staff generally friendly and helpful. Lovely grounds, very scenic.

Cons:

Building in general was too hot, and room was hot even with the window open all day and night. No temperature control in room.
A bit disappointing that as we were attending a wedding and had said from the start that we would arrive midday that there was no option to check in early or even a spare room to quickly get changed in other than the toilets.

Pros:

Really lovely staff team who are very welcoming and helpful. The front of the hotel; reception, bar, lounge and restaurants were lovely and well looked after.

Cons:

Once you got past the reception and went towards the rooms at the back the corridors were grubby and needed a paint and everywhere smelled of stale cigarettes. The bedroom, which was a privilege room, was just tired looking and the bathroom was grubby and outdated.

Pros:

The bed was very comfy and the view from the room was very good.

Cons:

Whilst the bed was very comfy, we felt the room was somewhat tired. There were scratches on the walls and the toilet did not like to flush. the shower tap needed replacement.

Pros:

Lovely location, the tree in front of the hotel is magnificent.
Room was comfortable and clean.
Staff were friendly.
Food was very nice.

Cons:

The decor was nice throughout but somewhat tired.
Breakfast was a bit disorganised, no hot water for tea, only from the coffee machine which was very busy.
Hot breakfast choice was good but trays were empty so had to wait 20 minutes until fully restocked.
There was a wedding party present so was very busy at breakfast, so possibly not the normal situation.

Sadly we won’t return as this definitely is NOT a 4 star venue
Pros:

Location fab, staff lovely, breakfast value for money

Cons:

The cleanliness of the room was very disappointing, the shower curtain was not clean , it was hard at the bottom with soap scum. The sofa bed in our family room was disgustingly dirty with a layer of dust and human hair/ skin along the back

Old rusty and dirty
Pros:

Nothing, the Hotel was old, rusty, dirty the door from the bathroom could not be closed, the water in the shower was also running the whole time. It was hot in the room

Cons:

As I said, the room was old, dirty and rusty. The door from the bathroom could not be closed, the water in the shower was running the whole time. It was hot. And when we asked for a refund booking.com didnt respond. In the Hotel they told us just booking.com can approve our request.

Room for improvement
Pros:

Le cadre est vraiment magnifique, en pleine nature anglaise. J’ai beaucoup aimé pouvoir me promener dans le jardin, et le fait de pouvoir boire un verre ou manger directement sur place est un vrai confort supplémentaire.

Le petit-déjeuner était vraiment très réussi ! Beaucoup de choix et rien à redire de ce côté-là.

Au final, c’est un endroit avec un cadre superbe et beaucoup de potentiel. Avec quelques améliorations au niveau des chambres, de l’entretien et du service, je pense que l’expérience pourrait vraiment être excellente.

Cons:

Malheureusement, nous ne sommes restés qu’une nuit, et je pense que c’était préférable car le confort n’était pas tout à fait au rendez-vous. J’espère sincèrement que mes remarques seront prises de manière constructive, car je trouve que cet endroit a énormément de potentiel et mérite d’être à la hauteur de son cadre.

La chambre était équipée du strict minimum. L’éclairage était particulièrement peu agréable et, comme notre chambre donnait sur une cour arrière sans réelle vue, nous avions très peu de lumière naturelle. Dans la salle de bain, le sol en vinyle commençait à se décoller, il y avait de la moisissure dans certains joints et le réglage chaud/froid de la douche nous a demandé un petit moment avant de comprendre son fonctionnement. Le gel douche mis à disposition était également vide.
Pour le prix de la chambre, je pense que quelques améliorations seraient vraiment appréciables.

Côté restaurant, c’était correct, mais certains détails nous ont un peu déçus. Payer £9.50 pour un « warm chocolate fondant » qui est un dessert que l’on peut trouver en supermarché, et qui n’était malheureusement même pas correctement réchauffé pour être fondant, m’a semblé un peu excessif.

Le service pourrait également gagner en efficacité. Par exemple, environ 15 minutes se sont écoulées entre le moment où l’on nous a proposé un dessert et celui où l’on nous a finalement apporté la carte, alors que plusieurs membres du personnel semblaient disponibles.
