Bev the host was excellent, room was lovely and very comfortable. Breakfast was lovely 😍 the area was Beautiful. Can't fault the place at all except you do need a car because there are no buses. It was raining a lot so didn't get to see the whole area..I wish I had book for 2 or 3 days. Would definitely recommend this place.

I was born in Oundle over sixty years ago and it has not changed too much in that time only the shops have improved and changed hands. However the last bank closed recently and we couldn’t find a link machine but there might have been one in Waitrose. The architecture is lovely and has a long history as the home of a Public school which encompasses the entire town. It is surrounded by the river Nene great for fishing and has a marina and a renowned boat building company Fairline boats. A lovely country park with old gravel pits now filled with water which attracts plenty of wild life. Plenty of places to have coffee and snacks plus a couple of pubs and two hotels/ Inn. Plus farmers markets are held on certain dates in the market square. There is also a wonderful artist and his shop on West Street who paints fantastic paintings of Oundle etc. It has a couple of supermarkets a comprehensive school, a Grammer school and a Public school which encompasses a lot of the town which is now co- educational and was originally founded by the Grocers of London, a very elite school. Overall a nice place to visit.

Oundle is only a small town but there are some useful and very good shops eg. independent bookshop, shoe shop, cookware shop.
It is easily accessible for some lovely walks and cycle rides. In the evening it is fairly quiet and it is compact enough to wander around.

Historical market down. There is a map and trail that you can follow giving you info on the buildings. We had lunch in the garden of Dexters Bar & Kitchen which was very good. We had an evening meal in the Talbot Hotel which was lovely. The Barnwell country park is nearby amd is lovely for a stroll around

A picturesque and pleasant small market town, with some good quality independent shops. Not a huge range of dining options, but some atmospheric pubs and good coffee shops. Worth spending a couple of days to explore the town and the surrounding area which has some very picturesque villages.

The town is really a school, most of the buildings are school houses etc, really is different. Many visitors may be there to visit family they have there at the school. Its a good place to use as a base for the surrounding area.

Oundle is a rather strange but picturesque place dominated by a public school and its buildings.
the hotel exceeded our expectations and was very good value for money though the food needs some attention.
The hotel was a bit too ancient for me. Car park was very tight. There is no lobby . Breakfast was less than average. If you didn’t want cooked breakfast the fruit was very poor, yogurts were disgusting and the whole continental breakfast area looked very sad.
Food in the evening was over priced and awful . It wasn’t an inviting hotel at all and although I may work in the area again I wouldn’t stay there again. Found the whole restaurant and bar area disjointed and not a nice ambiance.
The dinner was superb. The desserts were a work of art. Great wine too. There was plenty to choose from at breakfast and all good and fresh. Staff were all so friendly and helpful. A very relaxing place to explore Oundle. They had thought of everything in the room, not just the beautiful décor but all the teas, Nespressos, robe, slippers, iron, good hair dryer etc etc.. Loved all the history and pictures around the building.
We stayed in the Talbot Suite. It was nice enough - it had an amazing bathroom. The toiletries were quite nice, as well. The shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion were all top quality. We ate dinner at the hotel, focusing mainly on desserts, and all of them were good. Breakfast was cooked to order and was very lovely.
Absolutely loved our stay at Chapel Cottage, it was one of the nicest holiday cottages we have ever stayed in. It really felt like a home from home which is often not the case. Spotlessly clean and evert detail thought of by Helen. Oundle itself is a lovely place to visit. Highly, highly, recommended.
Nothing went well, since it was completely impossible to make contact with the staff. I actually did not stay at the hotel but could not inform them that I was not coming since they didn't once pick up the phone, despite my many many efforts to leave a message, send an email or get through on the phone.
Helen's cottage was perfect for our short stay in Oundle. The cottage was extremely clean and is well located, just off the high street and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Helen provided milk, chocolates, tea and coffee on arrival and communication was smooth throughout.
The location is excellent.We are regular visitors to Oundle to see our family.So proximity of property to family home was ideal.Property was very quiet And bed very very comfortable zzzzz Fantastic little café.The greedy piglet is next door so excellent for breakfast and snacks
Lovely looking hotel with plenty of charm.
The bedroom had character and a very well appointed bathroom. All the extras you would expect.
Excellent breakfast and the dinner was also very enjoyable and good value for money in a lovely dining room
It was close to home but felt like a world and a lifetime away. Every member of the hotel team we met were helpful, happy and couldn't have made us feel more relaxed and comfortable. The two night vacation has felt like a week away! Super!
i stay in many hotels and the Talbot stands out. They got everything right that I pay attention too - comfortable bed, hot powerful shower, cleanliness and friendly staff. On top of the the evening meal and breakfast were superb.
Really well appointed modern 3 bed house that’s in a good condition and has everything you need for a stay in the lovely town of Oundle. Super fast WiFi and Comms from the owner was also excellent.
