Room wasn’t overly clean. Was dusty and had cobwebs.
This was a gold room and in picture advertising it showed a lovely bath which is why we chose it. When we got there it was a shower and we questioned it to be told it was just a catalogue picture and they had no baths! The shower was stained with orange and needed steam cleaning and bleaching. The bed was metal and squeaky when sitting on it and only a double so small for a gold room. Couldn’t open window as level with bushes so let all bugs in and it’s was 30 degrees outside.
The breakfast was nice however cups were all stained with lipstick and dirt.
Staff in the evening weren’t helpful and taking our drinks order got it wrong which was only two drinks!
Password for WiFi is all in capitals on back of door when actually it’s only one capital letter the beginning. Really disappointing stay.

The outside tables could do with replacing. Accommodation was good but the bedside lamps didn’t work and toilet roll holder needs replacing.The food was excellent and restaurant is very well presented but the inner door from the conservatory closed with a loud bang that we could hear clearly from our room.

Lovely.

The room was fine however there was a synthetic air freshener smell I hated. I think it was placed under the bed. If we had stayed longer I’d have asked for it to be removed but we were in and out quickly.
The room was good for our requirements.
The inn itself looks wonderful. We had a quick drink before we went elsewhere. Wish we had eaten at the Fountain as breakfast was superb - 10/10.
Staff were all incredibly nice, happy and chatty.

Staff were fantastic from checking in to servicing the room and our needs. Nothing was any trouble. Restaurant staff were amazing along with all the chefs.
Food was amazing cannot fault any meal we had. Nice garden area to sit outside
The only thing to mention is outside our hotel room door (room 5 first floor) there must be a generator as every morning from 7am onwards. Along with the sound it also caused vibrations on our door. So if you are a light sleeper bear this in mind. We were there 3 nights and got used to so this did not cause to much bother.
Will definitely return

Okay, but definitely not worth the money I paid.

Double bed (queen size bed advertised). No free bottle of water (as advertised). No restaurant from Monday to Wednesday (hotels.com say restaurant available). Walls are paper thin where I could hear the guests conversation in the room next door as well as every time they used the toilet. Definitely not worth the £98 I paid.

There is no lounge or bar area to relax in. You can only buy,a drink with a meal, this applies to residents as well, there's a nice paved,garden area where it would be nice to sit out on a pleasant day, but you can only do this if you buy food.
Rooms very basic and small and at £90 overpriced
