Extremely disappointed this visit

The bathroom was clean but tiny and no room to put my washbag.
The stairs up to room 20 are soooo steep and 3 floors up.Found it difficult to get up with my suitcase and I am 78 years old and no help was offered.
I did not sleep from 1.00am unto 4.00am as someone was either smoking or vaping in their room and set off the fire alarm. I was disappointed as I have stayed several times before.

The choice of food at dinner was reasonably priced and of a very high standard. The breakfast was filling and delicious.
They have a first class games room which is spacious and has numerous activities available including pool, darts and table football.

Not worth the money

The hotel room was £130 for one night. From previous reviews I had high hopes. Unfortunately, the overnight did not live up to expectations.

The room itself is quite nice, we were in the Tolkien suite with a view over the country. The bed was comfortable and we had a good nights sleep. The room is a good size with plenty of room. However, it wasn’t clean. The shower head was covered in dust, dust on top of the bed posts etc. Generally felt like the room hadn’t been cleaned in a while and was just sat for a few weeks.

Unfortunately I can’t speak for the entirely of the hotel as we didn’t really engage with it. This was due to some weird and off putting smells around the property. I’m from the country, I’m used to the smell of manure etc. but the dinning area, bar and hall ways just smelt horrible. It was very off putting, so much so we didn’t go down for breakfast as we were put off eating.

Staff were friendly, which makes it even more of a shame that the experience wasn’t enjoyable.

This hotel is not disability accessible, lots of tight corridors and steps. The rooms are up two sets of stairs, through a small door at the back of the hotel. Rooms locks are quite high up so difficult to reach.

For the price we paid this was not worth it. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Wedding Guest Stay

We stayed for a night after a wedding we attended at the Shireburn and had a lovely time. The beds were really comfy, the room was spacious and decorated nicely and breakfast was good in the morning.
We were in a room on the front close to the road and it was a little bit noisy, around 7am there was a big truck that sounded like it was parked right outside our window making a really loud noise for about half an hour. Apart from the noise everything else was really nice and the actual venue for the wedding is gorgeous with stunning scenery and gardens

Nice enough room but noisy location. Food was just about ok. Staff lovely. The biggest issue was being a solo traveller when a wedding was going on in the function room. What I had expected to be a cosy night by the fire in the pub with a good book and a nice meal was entirely ruined by the booming music which dominated the entire pub every time anyone opened the doors from the function room. My advice would be to avoid if there is a big function going on as the pub loses it's charm.

Mixed feelings.

Traditional English pub. Large comfortable room and modern en suite. Difficult to regulate heat and window wouldn’t open in bedroom. No armchair for comfort.
Breakfast chaotic. Not enough staff on to explain the system or cope with service.
Staff very hard working but checkout was embarrassing as the check in staff hadn't recognised we paid up front. All sorted amicably but then confusion over bar bill.

Lovely stay.

Lovely stay, great staff and very good dinner. Our room was clean and comfortable and it was good to stay in a hotel with its own ambience and character. Set in beautiful countryside with great walks on the doorstep.

Not sure whats happened, stayed here several times over the past 12mths. Last visit was poor. Think there has been a management change...Food was average and breakfast service was shocking. Wont be back.

Room was comfortable, but no obvious way to open window. Menu was fine, but chef seems a bit heavy on hot spices. Service was good and helpful.

A good place but needs sprucing up!

The hotel is in a good place for walks. The reception isn’t on arrival was miserable unlike the lady checking us out. The bar needs more staff at night. The place was so busy the barman had no time clear glasses etc. the other barman waiter served when he could. But was busy serving tables on arrival day. The room had been repaired with plaster but needs a lick of paint. The room was too hot and windows did not open. The food was good.

Great Food

Great Food, Room was spacious but had to ask for it to be vacuumed as carpet had been missed. Headboard too needed cleaning, however staff very reliable and efficient and sorted the problem immediately. Food was excellent, so overall a great stay.

Coronation Weekend Stay

Easy process to book online with plenty of contact before the visit. Booking in was straightforward wnen we arrived. Easy instructions to find the room. Room itself was a very good size with very comfortable beds - a great night's sleep. Plenty of coffee/chocolate sachets provided and refilled the next day. Loads odf shampoo in bathroom but had to ask for a shower gel. A satisfactory size TV. There is a breakfast menu which is very varied. I particularly enjoyed the eggs benedict which was cooked to order. Juice, breakfast cereal, pastries etc were help yourself from the bar area. Leavind by 10.30 was great. The staff we encountered were all friendly and helpful. Plenty of car parking available. A good experience.

Not a great stay.

The hotel looks nice from the exterior, it's part of the James' Place group so I had decent expectations. Sadly, it didn't hit any heights at all. The main problem is the management. There are simply not enough staff working. Two on the bar (queues for service that lasted an eternity). Tables strewn with used glasses and plates. Nobody picking them up. Breakfast was a total disaster. Nowhere to sit that wasn't saturated with dirty cutlery and crockery, no staff cleaning up. We sat down (at a dirty table) for ten minutes, nobody came to help or advise, so we left. Hungry. Our room was clean and tidy, but also very small and overly heated. The shower was a pathetic dribble. The entire experience was poor.

Shireburn Arms experience



Quality of food very good and VFM . Staff ( multi tasking) friendly and willing
Arrived May Day Bank holiday lunchtime at around13.30 pm but no lunch available to us. Apologies made for \"no room at the Inn,\"However although referred to Mitton Hall ( Sister hotel) no effort made to contact this hotel to see if lunch available there for us.
Staff in my view lack oversight and direction by Management. Eg debris of food/drink/ dirty crockery/glasses etc from Monday Bank Holiday which were on table directly outside of our bedroom window, were still awaiting clearance at 10,45 am on Tuesday morning. Not something we wanted to wake up to and look out on !! However, this aside we would stay at the Shireburn again. But we feel customer focus on residents needs attention.

Holiday.

If I had one complaint its the fox hunting paintings on the wall. Barbaric sport which shouldnt be glorified.

Lovely stay in beautiful surroundings

We had an overnight stay, it was lovely. The room was lovely, warm and welcoming. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A good old fashioned, in the nicest way B&B. My only complaint is there was a cobweb in the room, it was quite ‘cosy’ and couldn’t open the windows.

Stayed for 2 nights. Check-in was simple and the room was fine.

Service at the bar was slow and staff seemed to lack experience. I ordered numerous bottles of red wine (the delicious French Malbec), none of which were accompanied with a polished wine glass - every time I ended up cleaning off watermarks and grease, myself.
I requested an early breakfast due to me having work the following morning, I was offered cereal and coffee - no pastries or hot option - not even toast. Disappointing. Breakfast on day 2 wasn't bad but there wasn't a clean table in sight. The server told us to take a seat and then realised that there wasn't anywhere for us to sit, prompting her to clear a table and get it re-laid for us. The tables remained dirty and not 'cleared' for the duration of our breakfast - an unpleasant environment, at best. It was also disappointing to see the server then go and sit behind reception and not make an effort to clear any of the tables, nor refill our coffee or check back to see how our food was.

All in all, it was a disappointing stay. I expected higher standards with the Shireburn being part of James' Places. The hotel itself was lovely and had lots of character, boasting some fantastic surroundings. Lots of potential, let down by operations.
