No complaints.

Staff were super friendly even before we arrived, they were really helpful in recommending a taxi driver to us for our stay. They remembered our request for an early check in and were really accommodating. Room was really clean and comfortable for our 1 night stay. We missed the breakfast slot in the morning but the lady on reception said she would sort us out breakfast and we had a fab full English which was great. Really recommend this place, it far exceeded our expectations and would definitely stay again if we are in the area. Perfect location if you're attending any events at Bredenbury court barns only 15 min drive away

Noisy outside the bedroom window where people were drinking.

Lovely spot Just very dated and has a very strange layout. Could have done with on comfy area with nice sofas to sit in an evening.

Room was extremely dated. Beds very uncomfortable! No replenishing of tea & coffee. Stayed 2 nights - but room wasn't cleaned. Ironing board was snapped - so ironed across the beds. Photos are very deceiving/cleverly edited - so dont see real room!!. Thought I must have booked wrong hotel when I'd checked in.

Outside area was great. Evening meal was lovely - but very expensive -£19 for fish and chips!.

Good

Nothing to complain about. We stayed mid week and they stopped serving food at 8:30pm

Great location, comfortable homely facilities, lovely grounds / outside area. Good food (feedback from others in our group I arrived too late)

Loved being at The Talbot. Always wanted to stay there. I am local but was walking the Worcester Way over three days so it was a lovely pitstop and surpassed our expectations. The evening meal was very good but rather large portion so we could have shared!

Upstairs area is very uneven due to the age of the building. The bedroom was sloped and exceptionally uneven making it unpleasant to walk around in. Access to the bedrooms area was up a very steep difficult staircase and even more difficult with a suitcase. In view of the beautiful location the outlook from the window was a great disappointment being dominated by a large black flat roof, if you get a front facing bedroom I expect the view would be great. The bed was not particularly comfortable. In view of the stairs/upstairs issues I would not stay there again.

Beautiful location in a very attractive rural part of Worcestershire. Food was excellent. Dining area modern and attractive with great view Bar area pleasant with historic character. Beautiful outside public areas.

the fact that loud music and party atmosphere in the bar below our room continued until 01:00-01:30 am without respite sleep was impossible during this time

the location was good as were the staff in the bar and restaurant the food was of good quality

The bedrooms and surrounding areas could do with a refresh. The staff were very junior and not the most attentive!

The property is in a beautiful location, it was quaint and peaceful. The bedroom was spacious and clean.

steep stairs, uneven floors. Evening meal was very expensive and not well presented. Bar staff unfriendly

The welcome was not as we would have hoped. We arrived just after lunch on Sunday and we seemed to be an inconvenience, the lady behind the bar was rude and dismissive. We were shown to our rooms , we had asked for 2 rooms together. They were adequate however the light switch in the bathroom wouldn’t go off and my partner and I had to be moved to the other side of the building. We stayed for 2 nights the first mornings breakfast was very disappointing. Poached egg was hard boiled, one piece of soggy streaky bacon, half a large mushroom , tomato beans fried potato and bread and black pudding. On the upside the bread was delicious. The first evening we decided to eat in, again the food was very disappointing and over priced, obviously microwaved, the lasagne was dried up. I had game pie which could only be described as glorified pork pie. £19 was extortionate. £17 for microwaved lasagne . The table was sticky and there was a sticker on the table that could at least have been removed.

The location and look of the pub was lovely

nothing all was great

we walked 20 miles along the Worcestershire Way from Bewdley to the Talbot and it was worth every step. a great old fashioned pub, with a bar and separate dining area. they have their own brewery ’Teme Valley’ and bakery. on arrival we received a very friendly welcome from the staff and locals, a great atmosphere. The food was very tasty and good value. The room was clean and comfortable and quiet. spacious bathroom with a large bath with piping hot water, with shower overhead. an excellent breakfast the following morning set us up for our 12 mile walk to Malvern. We’ve walked the Worcestershire way a few times but this was the first time we’ve stayed at the Talbot, but it won’t be the last time.

There is nothing we could fault with The Talbot

Such a beautiful place and the history is embraced which is fantastic! The staff were brilliant and very friendly. The food was incredible. We were staying there as we were going to a wedding, we checked out Sunday morning but we loved it so much we booked another night Sunday afternoon. The whole place was clean and inviting, a stunning building. We would absolutely stay here again! I really must thank the staff again, they were great!

Superb characterful coaching Inn. Very good location. Excellent bed and shower. Food and drink is a real delight here with beer and bread baked on the premises. Great staff. Some of the rooms are dated in style but kept very clean.

Great rooms, comfortable and clean. Excellent evening meals served and breakfast is tasty and plentiful. I love the old charm of The Talbot. It's a great place to stay.

There is nothing negative to say.

Exceptionally clean and the bed was lovely and comfortable. The breakfast is one of the best I have ever eaten and the home made black pudding deserves a special mention. Would definately recommend and will be back again. Oh and is properly dog friendly and relaxed.

Nothing

The room / staff and food was excellent - although Kitchen was closed at the time they arranged a ploughman's for my arrival in the evening - the breakfast was awesome - excellent establishment.

Stayed in January 2023

Service varied a lot. Ignored for a long time whilst at the bar on the first night but really friendly on the second night. Menu was good and food was fine but needed to be much hotter!

The room was comfy although could do with some redecoration.

Stayed in January 2023

Beds very squeaky & room bland & bleak. Bleach stained old mat in the bathroom. The pub was cold - the area cold have been condensed down in the winter.

Food was excellent.
