Featherstone Farm Hotel  

The farmhouse itself and the adjacent restaurant are beautiful 17th Century buildings, but ruined by artexing, PVC windows and furnishings which are not in keeping with the period. It could be really special if someone striiped it out and took it back to how it should look. Breakfast, however, was very good and the young couple managing the hotel were pleasant and helpful.

Room 0 was a twin room but no space to swing a cat! Just enough room to get round the single beds. No bath, just a shower. Tiny washbasin, so small it is impossible to fit the kettle under the tap. Bathroom ledges were dusty and the wardrobe had six useless plastic hangers. Not even a piece of soap. Bedstead obscures the TV. Lumpy, hard foam pillows. Come on!!!! You cannot be serious!!!! I would suggest that the staff try to stay in it for a night, watch TV etc. The only thing I can say is that it was a place to sleep for the night. It would be OK if that were the first bed and bathroom one encountered after spending 3 months backpacking around Africa. Then, no doubt, it would seem like luxury. Would not go back unless it were seriously upgraded in room size, furnishings and general comfort.

The local knowledge of the hotel owner.Close proximity to the business I had tyhe following day.

The bathroom was in need of serious refurbishment.The fact that it had no restaurant for evening dinner.

The fact that it was a disused and very old farm, so in the country, & quiet. The lovely breakfast room. The old fireplaces. The cosy feel. The attached pub (which we didn't have time to use).

We found the bathroom fittings unsatisfactory, and our room for two had only one chair and one towel, while having two cups for tea. There were several odd little things like this, including the need to use a cup to transfer water for tea to the electric kettle, because the kettle would not fit under the tap in the basin (which was minute itself). But overall the place was pleasant and met our needs. One of us would recommend ff, one wouldn'T.

Very quaint, lovely house, nice people. Indian restaurant is fabulous too!!

Bathroom is tiny and nowhere to hang towels or put toiletries, hooks would help! Room wasn't totally cleaned as we found previous occupants belongings in a drawer, and towels werenot replaced on the 2nd day. Just minor things though!

We arrived to book in very late because of the snow, Staff were very helpful and set a large fire going in lounge for us to thaw out. Grounds very pretty. On site Indain restaurant lovely, very reasonable, food excellent. Would definitely stay again

The staff were lovely and I enjoyed tucking into the breakfast, the room was lovely, warm and very comfurtable, and the facilities were just right. It was nice and quite and not to far out from anywhere. I love the country cottage home from home carisma this hotel offers, would be happy to stay again.

Friendly, welcoming, engaging and helpful staff and a delight to find such a well run and appointed hotel that would readily accommodate dogs.

Good location for my business. Friendly staff Good Breakfast Beside a nice Indian Restaurant

Very creaky floors from guest in room above woke me up at 6am. Very poor towels in room - strugggled to dry myself using two at a time. Ironing board on request had seen better days. Difficult to find any other restaurants in local area other than attached Indian.

Location, it was close to the village my mother grew up in. Breakfast was excellent. The Hotel was very clean and the staff helpful and obliging.

The floorboards of the room above ours creaked very loudly, if we'd wanted an early night we'd have been disturbed by it.

Great break, lovely staff and room was lovely.

the history of the hotel is worth reading . the breakfast was excellent & although we didnt eat at the indian resturant it was always busy & has a reputation locally for superb food. lovely room with inglenook fireplace. lots of oak beams .

the only down side was the creaking of the floor above everytime someone moved & you could hear people talking quite clearly . so will just req upper floor next time !!

Staff were incredibly friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Really comfortable bed and excellent breakfast.

Squeaky floorboards on room above.

Relaxed atmosphere in a very quiet location, so no problems sleeping. The staff were extremely relaxed and accommodating which was excellent.

Room was very small and the electrics were playing up. No easy way to fill the kettle up. No big deal...
