Disappointing
Don’t be fooled by the lovely country house photos, rooms are actually in a separate, square, characterless 1970’s/80’s block. The size and decor of them is reminiscent of basic summer school college accommodation. Room was cramped, dated, smelly and dirty. Even the ‘executive’ room I was moved to, though better decorated, was still small, had grimy tiles in the bathroom, a very worn and battered desk and no toiletries. Receptionist at check-in was pleasant and helpful - obviously used to being asked for a nicer room and helped me with no quibbles. On check-out it transpired breakfast wasn’t included as I’d thought. I asked why nobody had mentioned this to me on arrival when I enquired about where breakfast would be - usually hotels offer you breakfast and let you know how much extra it will cost if they know you’re ‘room only’. Was told, rather rudely, that it was up to me to ask! Ended up paying an extortionate £13 for a decidedly average breakfast. Had I known it would cost that much I wouldn’t have had one. Very unimpressed by this place and will not be going back. In short - avoid!

No lift, had to haul all my luggage up two flights of stairs, no automatic doors so had to put luggage doe to open all the doors to get to my room. Room was what you’d expect to pay no more than £30 a night for; terribly noisy, hard uncomfortable bed, cobwebs hanging down from light fittings, bedside lamp not working and no soap or handwash in the bathroom!!

Late for work on day of check out because night porter doesn’t know how to print VAT receipt and receptionist didn’t arrive on time. Teach Night porters how to press print. I’m frustrated that the receptionist running late has a knock on affect on my day

Property in need of renovation. Small rooms with poor sound insulation, so you get to hear your neighbours snore. Don’t bother with breakfast, what you get is made early and left to keep warm in heated servers. Powdered, tasteless scrambled eggs, boiled bacon, hard luke warm sausages and soggy hash browns. Not what you expect for £12.50.

The rooms are so small with very small beds. Yhff Ed room wasn’t particularly clean . Told at reception the only way you get breakfast is if you book direct through hotel & it’s cheaper but too be fair we looked when we booked & it was well over £100. Compared to other hotels we’ve stayed in for £70 it’s not great .

I booked this because im suck of premier inns... i wanted something a bit more upmarket for a change. The pictures are very misleading. I thought i was booking into a country house but actually the property has other buildings as part of the park and these buildings provide very badic accommodation. It felt like a mid range B&B. It was clean but very small and the TV was tiny. I would highly recommend that it is made clear that although the country house may be high end there are god awful rooms aswell. If i had known this i would never have booked. Also the matress was very cheap and the bath was onlg big enough for a child. Not happy and will not be staying again

Our room was tiny as we opened the door there was just a bed right there so wasn’t very spacious. It also wasn’t the most comfortable and thought the photos online look nicer than the hotel in person.

Very disappointing for what you expect.
Disappointing. Felt more like a boarding house or mess. Room was cold and can’t control the heating, the shower pressure was hopeless, towel was stained, tv didn’t work, etc.

Check postcode
The hotel is fine but the advertised postcode doesn’t take you to the hotel. I had to call reception who gave me the correct postcode and said it wasn’t their fault (not sure who else is to blame??)

Rooms clean and linen fresh, towels lovely. Bed wonderful. Shower so poor couldn't use it properly. Corridors worn and dated and in urgent need of update. Steps outside and stairs inside steep coming downward. Sealants around windows, in the room we stayed in, were dirty and need replacing. Gardens outside the residential block lovely but the main garden rooms need a lot of attention. Lovely location: main house and front picturesque lawn so beautiful but if you see that on the web for a weekend: not what you get!! Expected to stay in an historic house but slept in a 1970s block. Thought we were staying in a Country Mansion and ended up sleeping in a 1970 block. Disappointed with what we got but happy with our 1 night stay - hade evening meal and breakfast elsewhere-: be aware of what package you book!!
