Dumbleton Hall Hotel  

This is an excellent location for a hotel.. we spent over an hour exploring the hotel grounds and lake .. and there was still more to see! A lovely romantic night away in a fantastic location .. without hesitation .. book now .

The hall itself was a very impressive building. The estate was large and interesting and we enjoyed the animals and wildlife, especially the black swans. The attentiveness of the staff was excellent Excellent value for money !

Unfortunately, we didn't get a four-pster bed !!

I was very excited to stay at this beautiful hall that is situated not truly in the Cotswolds but on the cusp. The manager on duty was extremely nervous and I felt as if he kept "following" us. We arrived late and every time we turned around, either he or another man on duty was there....at 11 pm!!! Even outside, we tried to get a nightime view of the castle and the manager came outside to move his car fifty feet? I also overheard them discussing me in the lobby concerning an issue I had with booking. I understand that these issues must be discussed for training purposes, etc but not so I can hear! I thought that was rude and not very professional. The hotel is nice but my friend's room was very musty smelling with a big stain on the wall. She actually ended up sleeping in my room.

Dumbleton Hall is set in beautiful countryside, which is perfect for a long walk, and is maintained to an extremely high standard both inside and out. The staff were extremely helpful, the lovely young lady on reception even recommended a local pub for my partner and I to go to for dinner one evening. The food was very good - we ate in the à la carte restaurant on the first night and the breakfast both mornings were delicious. Overall we had a lovely time and would definitely go again and recommend to friends.

The only complaint I have is not with regards to Dumbleton Hall itself, just that there is not a pub within walking distance to the hotel - and on a rainy spring afternoon, it would have been nice to waste away the afternoon sipping local ale rather than one of us having to drive. But as I said - not a complaint against the hotel - I can't recommend it enough.

Quietness and attractive grounds with easy parking

Location and the superb building

Extremely disappointing restaurant which offered a boring menu and no attempt at what might be defined as 'fine dining'. On Valentines Day there was no special menu and indeed I demanded credit on one of the meals as it was awful. No apology forthcoming. We would certainly not consider staying there again. Money wasted .

Food, location and comfort

Asked for light bulb to be replaced in bedroom but it wasn't during our stay. One of the radiators didn't work. When you came out of lift on the second floor, looking right all you could see was a cage with possible dirty bed linen. Lookked awful.

I was very impressed with the building itself and its ability to combine historical setting with luxury. It was excellent value and provided for all our needs. There was excellent walking in the immediate area. The staff were very accommodating as we were a party of 8. I would definitely go there again

Everythings was perfect !!!!!!!!!!!!!...Very nice manager Philip !

Luxury manor ! everything was exellent !

As an older couple we liked being offered help with our luggage. We also liked the warm atmosphere in the dining room. The log fires were a lovely touch.

To access our room we had to walk through workmen. There were tins of paint and tools left in the corridors when not working. Our room could have been warmer. Our bathroom door hinge was loose (mentioned to receptionist) The washbasin tap had the end missing (mentioned to receptionist) Steak on Saturday evening was so tough, my husband could not eat it. IHe mentioned this to waitress who apologised. When we said we enjoyed our dessert, we got the comment "that made up for the steak then".

The location was great for my trip and the environment was very relaxing. The staff were friendly and helpful

The hotel was idyllic - Downton Abbey / Pride & Predudice like. The family room we stayed in was a lot larger than we expected and was very comfortable. Everywhere was very clean and all the staff were very courteous and helpful. The breakfast was cooked lovely and was very fresh.

Nothing to dislike for the purpose of our one night visit. If staying longer it does need more facitilities.

It was an interesting old house with lots of history. The staff were friendly and helpfull. The food was very nice.
