The room was dirty, smelly, and hot due to water boiler in the room. Only a small window for such a hot room. The service was terrible because they were not bothered about these complaints.

Great price
Although a little tired and dated the price was excellent therefore difficult to complain about much.
Hole property needs brought into the 21st century, we paid for a superior room !! If that was the superior I’d hate to see the standard room, bed was rock solid , bathroom was a disgrace…dirty looking, broken and loose tiles on walls, dirty grout and silicone, no double glazing, no air con or even a fan, 14”tv, every floorboard made a loud creaking noise, the hotel inspector would have a field day with this place……bad bad bad !!!!
Outdated hotel but nice rooms comfy beds. Breakfast prices for kids is the same as an adult not worth £15 for kids to eat breakfast. No one was at reception when we tried to report the curtain fell down when we closed them
Arrived at night to find no parking available in the grounds, no designated car park, ended up parking up a side street, check in was fine, was told we were in the newer part of hotel so was very shocked to see the room, wouldn’t like to see the older part if this was new part. Was on ground floor with garden view but had a transit van parked outside, bathroom consisted on wash hand basin in the actual room with toilet and shower in a separate cupboard with sliding door which did not fully close and was dirty, if we had not been travelling all day and arrived at 10pm would have turned and left hotel. Breakfast was just ok.
It was beautiful. There was a heat wave and a fan would have been nice but we all had a great time.

The room we was given was not fitted with air conditioning, the only access to any kind of fresh air was through a window which had been modified so it would only open approximately 2 centimetres and the room was like being in a sauna.
We was not offered any alternative room or a fan to help with the very very very hot room!!!
As a result I will not be choosing this particular hotel next time I stay in the area and definitely won’t be recommending them to anyone either.
Good value hotel which was comfortable and centrally located. Breakfast was also good value.

Over all I enjoyed my stay, lounge, Dining room, and bar were nice entertainment on 2nd night was unexpected and good. I had a dog friendly room on the ground floor it was old fashioned and tired but the bed was comfortable.
Room was above kitchen and roasting hot all night long. Had a terrible nights sleep, only to be woken at 7am by loud rock music coming from the kitchens below. Not good.

Clearly any refurbishment taking place had not been done on room 119 - in very poor condition, windows very dirty, curtains left in closed position to block out the view of the rooftops and gutters which were covered in pigeon poo and dirt, sheets didn’t quite fit the bed, mattress uncomfortable with springs causing discomfort, bathroom ceiling paint flaking off, paintwork very yellow, bathroom ceiling light cover broken and door did not close properly, drinks in the bar expensive.
We arrived early evening and managed to get a meal in the restaurant. It was lovely and the staff were also. But when we went up to our room it was a different matter. While the room was adequate and clean the bathroom was discussing! The shower was not just moldy but rusted out. There was a soap dish attached to the wall, right above a dirty rust one that was hanging loose. No toilet roll holder, you had to twist around to get that, and you had to pump the handle to get the toilet to flush. The shower curtain couldn't slide accross, the fan didn't work, the door wouldn't slide shut but did flap open at the bottom and the water heater went from freezing cold to dangerously searing hot in a blink of an eye. And the heater in the room didn't work. When we went down to express out disappointment the lady on reception was very apologetic but couldn't help as they were fully booked and told us to talk to the manager in the morning. Morning came and we spoke to the manager who quite frankly couldn't care less, he didn't apologise he just said that he couldn't move us because they were full. When we asked for a refund he fobbed us of and said you'll have to ask WotIf. He didn't even offer us a free breakfast, which by the way was also discussing and not up to the standard of the night before. We will nevwr stay at a Bespoke Hotel again!
Mould. So much mould. In desperate beed of renovation. Water stain all down the bedroom wall. Disgusting shower see pictures. Sheets dudnt fit bed. Breakdmfast adequate. Not enough staff. Nobody on reception because she was serving in the bar. Big coach group in hotel, i imagine they are given the nice rooms if there are any as they would lose their main source of income if they all complained to their tour operator.
