Sparkford Inn

The windows didn’t close in the bedroom, didn’t open in the bathroom or lounge area. There was no hot water either the evening we arrived or the next morning so cold showers. Food was ok. Nothing near the inn to do apart from the Haynes museum which required walking on a major route with no path. Ok for a bed for the night, the bed was comfortable.

Not much to dislike, the hotel is very old and as such is tired in places, could use a lick of paint in areas and a freshen up. But this is in no way negative when price is factored in.

NOT A HAPPY CUSTOMERS.
We booked for a Sunday evening.
When arriving we didn't see one person, no customers as pub closed at 7pm.
We arrived at 6.45pm , no staff anywhere. As pub now closed.
Room key left on table in entrance hall.
So much incorrect information on Bookings website and pubs website.
Luckily I rang them the Saturday morning,. they informed me that food finishes at 5pm Sunday.
I asked about Breakfast, told they haven't served it for two years.
Then they rang me Sunday morning to asked when we were arriving, thats when they informed me the pub closes at 7pm.
When I said the website information was incorrect,
They said they have tried to change it for two years.
What annoys us is we picked and booked through booking.com information of the pub.
We were meeting up with a friend from France staying in a campsite very close to pub. We were going to have drinks and evening meal at the pub. But had to drive 3 miles to another. then in the morning meet up for breakfast.
So totally spoiled our visit with our friend. All due to your out of date information. NOT HAPPY .

Le manque de protection rapport au soleil. Quand nous sommes arrivées, il y faisait très chaud (période de canicule).
La salle de bain pas vraiment en bon état. L'absence de petit déjeuner (un des points forts dont je me souvenais d'un précédent séjour il y a 5 ans). Pas de moyen de se connecter au wifi.

The room was very unclean. Cobwebs everywhere. Dirty grimy floors in the bathroom.

The 1st room had the shower hanging of the wall and windows that were dirty and did not open, the second room was just as filthy with stained walls and torn wallpaper and the two room were deluxe rooms and cost me £162 for two nights worse than a youth hostel

Breakfast

Just the extractor fan needs fixing. No coffee and breakfast service but wasn’t a problem.

No breakfast available. Dirty bathroom. Previous users items in a drawer. Bedside lamp cable didn’t reach a socket ( but staff provided an extension lead when asked). Evening menu basically “ frozen and fried”. Room not serviced on second day.

NO BREAKFAST AVAILABLE!
Booking.com should only offer up accommodation that can provide a breakfast for travellers. This venue can offer lunch and evening meals but not breakfast! A breakfast is probably the most important meal if the day so why not offer it? This has put me off from EVER booking this accommodation again!

Smell of cannabis one night so had to close the window and it was a hot night!
Mould in the shower along with a funny smell, cob webs

Slightly outdated, and windows hard to open due to position behind desk. Shower ventilation fan also had noticeable dust.

The room and the bathroom no fridge or breakfast as indicated on booking. Com
