I enjoyed my stay at the hotel. It was very quiet and peaceful and enjoyed sitting outside at the rear. There's no problem parking. The room was very spacious and the beds were comfortable. The only criticism I have is, about the shower room. It needs something to put your toiletries on. There is a small glass shelf above the wash basin, but that is taken up by the complimentary toiletries and 2 glasses. Even without them it's only a small shelf. I had to put my toilet bag on the floor.
The breakfast was enjoyable. Not a large buffet, but it was sufficient. The full breakfast was very nice. I would stay again.

A lovely old mansion undergoing renovation and upkeep in keeping with it's age. Scaffolding on the outside wall which made the entrance rather difficult to find especially as the sign was rather small.
Lovely room, stone which kept it cool (much appreciated) but of course no double glazing which made it noisy from the families shouting and drinking with the children screaming and running, as they do! Actually the adults were louder than the children!

Bed was comfy, room had both a fan and a heater, towels were plentiful and shower, when I worked out how to get hot water, was good. Lovely sitting area, plenty of parking so overall, recommended

We stayed in the lodgings that’s part of the old lodge . There’s no parking not easy to find. Our room was number 29. Upon entering the carpet is filthy the room was covered in dust there was hair in the bath. The velux window blind was broken. The main window did not close properly the window didn’t open properly because of the guttering. We booked 2 rooms for 6 people but only got a double bed in each.

On arrival the staff were lovely. We stayed in the white swan. The bedding was spotless. The room is tied and in need of decorating. There's a smell of damp and unfortunately we didn't feel comfortable opening the windows as we were on the ground floor, which is directly onto the street. We've stayed in the hotel before, which we enjoyed. But unfortunately we won't stay in the white swan again!

I was in room 10 which was very nice but it was next to the kitchen so you could hear the extractor up until about 8 pm also you couldn’t have your widow open during this time. The rest of my stay was perfect, breakfast choice and quality very good ,evening meal very good, staff excellent and ample parking. Outside at the rear was a lovely large garden with plenty of seating for drinks. This was my second visit this year and I would definitely stay here again.

The property itself desperately needs significant investment, restoration and renovation.

Reception and bar staff friendly on arrival. We were initially given room 5 - it had a double and 2 single beds and was filthy. Dripping liquid on the bedside table (not a stain, just not cleaned), no valance on the dirty/stained divan, handle missing from the chest of drawers. The furniture wasn't arranged optimally. Overall, it had a feel of a care home you'd be put in if you weren't nice to your kids!

I requested a room change, which was offered with no quibbles by a reception staff member. We were moved to room 8, which was markedly better, but still not great. Real old world styling, but needs upkeep - peeling wallpaper, a badly repaired 4 poster bed, nowhere to plug the kettle in unless you put it on the floor, a small TV with no Smart capabilities (a luxury, I know), with a really poor digital service - turned off continuously randomly. The bathroom clearly had drain issues and had a foul odour.

The saving grace of this stay was how nice the staff were. The breakfast was lovely, including the service.

The cleaning staff need a good shake up and major investment & effective preventative mainentance is in great need.

Our room was in the Old Swan,it is a property that the Old Lodge must own. It's a few minutes walk from the lodge.It was ok but wouldn't stay again. Breakfast was lovely,fresh fruit, croissants, everything cooked to order.
The only niggle was that we went for a drink in the lounge about 9 o clock,and it was just staff stood there ,one was swearing,which I don't think was acceptable in a posh establishment and while guests were present .
Check in staff were lovely,but we won't be staying again.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
We arrived and walked down to a room in another building , it was a dirty, poorly maintained disgrace, smashed window in the room , cobwebs , pint peeling g , lights hanging out if the ceiling and stains on the floor … SO we asked for a better room it was room 4 , ignoring the noise from in the bar the peeling wall paper and black mould and flaking paint it was ok ! Oh the bed was a 4 poster but not actually built more leaving together. The shower was pointless the smell from the drains horrendous. We would have complained but when we got back after an evening’s entertainment we came back to staff brawling and shouting at each other somewhere behind reception so gave up. When I complained in the morning I was asked to email in .

When we arrived about 5.45pm Sunday evening we could hear a lot of noise coming from the bar area . We went to our room and freshened up arriving back at the bar about 6.15pm. The bar was dominated by a group of \"locals\" who were worst for wear, shouting and swearing. My husband and I retreated to the terrace which was a bit cool. We asked if any managers were on duty and were told no. The staff were just youngsters and had no authority to deal with these people. We were told that the manager wouldn't subdue these people as they were regular customers. We will not be booking this hotel again. As for the room it was a deluxe room but was lacking in fundamental

Booked through Hotel.com. The photos give you an impression that you are staying in a lovely old building with nice grounds surrounding it, but in the small print. You are actually in a building 100 metres down the road near the town. You can drive down and drop off luggage but will need to return car to hotel car park. The path was closed due to utility repairs, so you had to walk on the road . The front entrance had no lighting so needed to use light on phone to go down steps. While carrying all my luggage. The drain at entrance also had a slight smell of sewage. The room was a good size. TV very small. Room was clean but paint peeling off one corner and carpet badly marked. WI-FI was terrible in room and lounge room. My room was next to road and was quite busy and noisy. Actually didn’t use it in the end as it was so bad. Layout of building not well indicated. Entrance to main hotel very tight and not lit very well. Original entrance closed. Never went to main hotel to check out restaurant and bar as it was quicker to walk into the town. When I complained (politely) on arrival the receptionist passed me the key and directions (bad photocopy) and just walked off. Probably fed up of complaints as the two people before me were asking for there rooms to be changed. Very disappointing experience.

Clearly had been an impressive building with great facilities. Needs a massive update and refresh. Who has carpet in a bathroom, especially a hotel? (which had marks/stains throughout the room). Noisy room (7) which was over bar, made worse by dishwashing glasses at 2.00am! Breakfast was average, overcooked sausages, as an example. Over-priced for what it offers as accommodation. Could be brilliant, but needs work to clean the rooms, woyld be a start! Sorry.

Biggest issue was noise from upstairs occupants walking around & talking - not their fault to floor had poor (if any) sound insulation. Generally needs a good clean, windows need sorting out to fully close and reduce road noise and the beds need the slats replacing to offer better support. Was just about ok for a cheap break but needs some significant improvements for me to consider returning.

The property has a lot of character with lovely grounds. If you are looking for something different to mainstream then The Old Lodge is for you. We stayed in a very large room on the ground floor. The bed was a four poster bed with a super king size mattress. Unfortunately the bedframe squeaked as you get in and out of bed which is not ideal. Everything looked clean except the carpet which could do with a deep clean. The room has a view of the beautiful grounds, albeit obstructed by the TV.

The veggie one only had 2 sausages, though meat option had 3 and black pudding. However , during our party of 6 having breakfast, they ran out of tomatoes, black pudding and mushrooms, so that could be better. Wouldn’t stop me going back though- we loved it!
