    The breakfast times were very early 7 to 9 am and were obviously set to service the work conferences that go on in the week. Not nice for a leisurely stay. The drinks prices were over priced. The breakfast on offer was limited with a toaster for toaster to make your own toast set on a rather high counter top. The cooked breakfast was not hot enough and the sausage tasted like sage stuffing. Beans were placed in an egg cup and were dried up. Not a value for money breakfast. We would book a room only if we stayed again. The room temperature was a little chilly and the radiator did not warm up. We informed reception and it was rectified. The weather temperature had changed and we needed to heat the room.

    The room we were allocated was much bigger than we booked and a lovely surprise. The bed was super king and very comfortable. Nice to have an extra door with access to the garden. Bathroom well appointed with separate shower and bath. Very clean.

    Will always come back, but feel a bit deflated (and tired) given the problem with the bed
    • Business trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    My only sore point is this, which I explained on my departure this morning. Room 1 should not have two single beds made into a double if the mattresses are of different heights/depth. It made for one of the worse nights sleep Ive had in a while which is a shame given its one of the most important parts of the stay

    Not sure of the gentleman's name on reception on arrival but extremely polite and helpful. The room itself was clean with excellent facilities (other than the bed unfortunately which Ill highlight below). I didnt arrive until late into the evening (past 9pm) and given the low number of quests, it was understandable to close the bar early but manged to get a drink. Anyone arriving late can use Just Eat and get delivery from as far as Bracknell which is great. Breakfast was excellent no faults whatsoever. (poached eggs were spot on) There are a multitude of positives with this hotel, location, building, and surrounding gardens which are well kept. Ive stayed here several times and enjoyed my stay each time, and Im a little reluctant to say anything negative about such a nice hotel but need to point something out

    The hotel is used for weddings and events and is a wonderful setting. However, some small room details let it down. There was no full length mirror in the room - could not see how my outfit looked. There was also no plug socket near the only, and very high up, mirror in the room. I ended up using a socket the other side of the room and standing on a suitcase so I could see to dry my hair (I’m 5ft 7ins so anyone shorter would really have struggled).

    Beautiful hotel and our room was stunning. Very spacious and clean. Lovely bathroom too with a sunken bath. The breakfast was plentiful and the setting (in the stables) is just lovely.

    A male and female receptionist wasn't very friendly and was actually quite curt. The female receptionist whom I checked out with actually charged me the wrong price for the additional dog fee. She didnt even apologise when I pointed out the error and made me feel like I was in the wrong for causing hassle. The room was fine, nothing to write home. Clean enough just aged bedroom and bathroom. But for the price and 4 * I have expected higher standards.

    Nice gardens, there was one receptionist lady who was friendly and replenished out water. A gem out of the whole team. Bringing Tea bags and milk with a smile.

    The hotel seemed to have made no provision for the temperatures of the day. A floor fan in the room isn't great for a dog-friendly room. The blinds were open, the windows closed and the room really warm upon arrival. Some rooms have curtains, but ours had roller blinds fitted very close to the windows. This meant that lowering the blinds for shade cut off any ventilation benefit from having the windows open. The room therefore became stuffy overnight, and raising the blinds for ventilation meant early waking due to the light. A bit more forethought from the hotel would have meant that the blinds could have been down all day, keeping the room cooler for arrivals.

    The room was well appointed, very spacious and dog-friendly with access to the gardens. The bathroom was also well appointed and very spacious. Dinner was great, though the restaurant initially didn't seem to have any tables set aside for people staying at the hotel on a DB&B rate, which seems odd. Breakfast was also good.

    The bar being closed when we returned after a meal at the Stables restaurant, although eventually we got served. Bedroom would have benefited from a throw or cushions on bed. Also a fridge in the room.

    The entrance is beautiful. Our balcony was a bonus (once the wedding party moved into the restaurant) attached to our room.
