Disappointing
When we arrived at the hotel it looked great - the buildings are located in beautiful wooded grounds with plenty of parking. From then on it went downhill. The room was spacious, but was showing signs of wear although reasonably clean. We had an evening meal in the restaurant. It was quite a long wait to order drinks and food, so we ordered both at the same time. Mistake! Appetizers were finished before the drinks arrived, and although the menu looked interesting the food when it came was nothing special. It was then a long wait for desserts - eventually we grew tired of sitting looking at empty glasses so gave-up and found someone for the bill

Still smoking at front doors! Come on management!
The hotel still permits smoking immediately outside the front reception doors which is most unfortunate; it's disgusting to inhale second hand smoke on a beautiful sunny morning when all you want is a deep breath of fresh air! Otherwise hotel is good as ever and I would recommend.

Good break but not to standard we hoped for.
The swimming pool suffered badly from green algae were tiles joined grating. Breakfast sausages were served not fully cooked inside. House keeping didn't empty bins and used teaspoons put into clean mugs.

This hotel is situated in a very pleasant wooded area with ample parking spaces however there did appear to be only 1 space designated for Blue Badge holders. Earliest Check in was 3pm which was smooth. The room (240) was clean, tidy & spacious with ample storage. The breakfast was of a good quality with a varied variety, however if you need to use the toaster make sure there are long tongs available so as to avoid the possibility of burning one's hand when retrieving the toast etc. The bar was pleasant enough hover the staff appeared to be at sixes & sevens and were not familiar at using the coffee machine. Prices for the bar & restaurant are pretty hefty. No experience of the Spa as my stay did not allow time for this. Overall stay was pleasant but reserve judgement on its 4* rating.

Very nice 1 night stay, will return at a good pric
The room and hotel was clean and tidy, unfortunately did not have enough time to explore the hotel. However the hotel has a very strong outdoor farm smell. Be aware that the hotel in slap bang in the middle of the countryside if you are not used to farming odours.
