The only way to leave a review is to first make a booking. That's how we know our reviews come from real guests who have stayed at the property.

When guests stay at the property they check out how quiet the room is, how friendly the staff are and more.

After their trip, guests tell us about their stay. We check for naughty words and verify the authenticity of all guest reviews before adding them to our site.

Very nice location with lovely grounds and ample parking. Clearly restoration going on which did not affect our stay. We loved the old world charm high ceilings, old leather chairs and beautiful woodwork in main part. The gym and pool, which we used every day were excellent, great gym and equipment and good sized pool. Staff were very extremely friendly and very helpful. Meals were excellent especially breakfast, evening menu slightly more limited but still good quality. We will definitely visit again.

Really lovely room. Parking opposite on road or close by in market place. Free WiFi. Stayed 2 nights and found it very comfortable. Great location. We did the brewery tour 5 minutes walk away.

We booked an evening meal for 7.30 not knowing the kitchen closed at 8.30. We felt we were rushed to eat our meal and were told if we didn't order our dessert we wouldn't get one because the kitchen would be closed!

Good, clean (if slightly dated) accomodation. Great location in walking distance of the castle and the (wonderful) gardens. Excellent reception staff.

The most appalling breakfast service. Grumpy, unhelpful staff, who treated guests as if they were a nuisance. Not a smile to be seen. Pretty awful breakfast, too. The worst overall breakfast I have experienced in more than 50 years of travel.
