Initially no problem but deteriorated.
Pros:

It was close to where we wanted to be.

Cons:

On the Sunday (we stayed 2 nights) we had been out during the day and when we returned we discovered our key for the room wasn’t working.
There were no staff and everything was locked up. A sign on the desk gave a number to call but this was just an ansaphone number to leave a message.
No response was received and we tried again. We were stuck for well over half an hour unable to access anything until finally a staff member arrived and sorted out the problem. My wife was very distressed by all of this and we were both angry. No apologies have been received and no refunds given.

Pros:

Easy check in, great location and good facilities.

Cons:

We had a power cut on arrival - so took a while to be able to start working and having a cup of tea (not hotel fault)

One of the most pleasurable couple of days away my wife have had in years. Well done Sreveton House Hotel and well done

Location was quiet & peaceful. Staff were exceptionally attentive. Alex deserves a special thankyou for her kindness. Our party of three were celebrating my wife’s birthday and Alex made it special. Hope she enjoys her time with her father back home in July.

Cons:

Price vs value unbeatable
