Beautiful place, room was lovely and had everything you could need. No evening chef (which we knew about before arrival) - had a great meal at Dolce Vita in Catterton. Bed was comfy, shower was a bit "trickly". Breakfast was good and staff were so friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

Needs investment!

Amazing staff, pet friendly and good breakfast but no other food available. Rooms need massive makeover! Beds were very old and uncomfortable. Has potential to be a great place to stay with investment.

Lovely place, welcoming staff, the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Would visit again if in the area. The only down side of the room that it was too hot, they did have cooler in the room which helped.

The hotel was fine overall. The hotel and the room needed some refurbishment as it is very tired. The room was generally fine. Bathroom was very tired and the shower was very difficult to operate due to its age and condition. Overall, the staff were great and we had no issues
