    At 5'11 i'm not particularly tall yet my feet were hanging over the edge of the bed, it was very short in length. Although there was a heater provided in the bottom of the wardrobe, the room was very cold throughout the stay.

    Really nice location with great surroundings. Rooms very spacious and clean. Excellent food and restaurant/bar staff particularly at breakfast.

    Nothing to say here.

    This was my second stay at Horsley Lodge - as I had enjoyed my first stay so much. Staff were very helpful and friendly, room was lovely - clean, spacious and comfortable - it was really nice to be able to have a bath rather then just a shower - which seems to be the normal these days. My friends and I had afternoon tea - which was lovely, we also ate in the restaurant in the evening and had breakfast the next morning. The food on each occasion was lovely. Would be very happy to stay again and very happy to recommend.

    Purely personal preference, just the pillows, were softer than we are used to. Absolutely nothing we didn't like

    Lovely room. It looked just liked the photos on the website. Really helpful staff regarding our check in time. Breakfast was also really nice. Nice large bed. Room was clean and tidy

    Lovely laid back hotel better suited to holiday or short breaks
    • Business trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Executive Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    My particular room did not offer much in way of window view, and as its an old building the floors in the bedroom above do creek & groan when somebody is moving around. Also it would be better if breakfast started at 07:00 not 07:30, when I'm on business and getting back on the road, that 30 mins will make a difference

    Lovely location, plenty of parking. Evening meal & breakfast was excellent & good value.

    It was just perfect with one exception, in the room in which I stayed there was a high pitched constant buzzing sound, I couldn't work out what it was, it was very frustrating and continued throughout the night, it meant that I had a disturbed sleep, not ideal.
