Short stay

A pleasant hotel with a good room apart from very limited storage for clothes etc. Restaurant meal disappointing with the smallest portion of mushy peas I have ever seen - less than the tartare sauce and just one mouthful!

Myself and my sister had a lovely stay. The only critique would be the bathroom could do with an upgrade and air con would have been a plus.
The breakfast was lovely and nothing was to much trouble and a special thank you to Tina who was on breakfast duty was amazing.
The bedroom was spacious and welcoming and the extras was a bonus.

A very pleasant break.

Pauline, Gloucestershire, stayed: June 2025

Excellent buffet breakfast. Staff very helpful and friendly. As it was during the recent heatwave, the room that we had booked (on the top floor) had been changed to a lower floor with air conditioning which worked beautifully. Sadly though our view was limited to about two feet as the building backs onto a grass bank. Whereas the view from the top floor would have been of lawns and a rather neglected lake. Having stayed in the Hotel previously I was a bit disappointed with the Evening meals.The first evening I had Prawn cocktail for my starter. Unfortunately this was not as expected.The prawns appeared to be chopped up shrimps, but with no discerneable sauce. Lots of hard to chew lettuce and quite dry. I had the same problem with the Caesar Salad. Very little sauce with it which made it dry and disappointing. Both my partner and I enjoyed the Complimentary afternoon tea, and can thoroughly recommend it, particularly for a special celebration.

Brilliant

Anon, stayed: June 2025

Fantastic hotel. Staff very welcoming and very helpful..
Had a dog friendly room which was very spacious.They also provided some trays and toys for our dog.
As we had our dog with us we ate in the lounge area, which was very nice. Located next to the main restaurant.
All the staff were very friendly and very polite. The grounds are well kept and there are a variety of walks that you can undertake. which the hotel provide detailed directions.for.

Recent Stay

GH, West Sussex, stayed: June 2025

Have stayed several times over the years. This time we stayed with friends. No surprises really The Hotel is nicely sited in its own grounds and a good base for trips in the Cotswolds.. The refurb undertaken some years ago is getting a bit tired and is now seemingly a stop off point for large coach parties - coaches being parked outside our ground floor room and engines left running for extended period. Menu choice is quite restricted and evening meal on this occasion just average. Wine is ( like most hotels) exorbitant. Breakfast and overall customer service was good. Very happy with this aspect - our party of 4 (including a friend with gluten intolerance) was well catered for.

Great value country break

VM, Gloucestershire, stayed: June 2025

Booked late and got a great deal at this lovely hotel. Impressed with decor, staff, food (lovely restaurant and bar area) and welcome. Particularly impressed that the promised champagne was chilling nicely on arrival - not all hotels remember the detail so we loved that they d done this.
