Best KPortal Reviews
This hotel is terrible the first room smelt of sewage, and had a snail on the curtain, the second room was better but the toilet was broken, the bath was stained, the shower was a rubber pipe fitted to taps, the floors had not been cleaned, it was generally dirty apart from the sheets and towels, only saw one member of staff definitely no cleaners dodgy electrics all extension leads,
we booked for two nights only stayed for one daren't even try the breakfast. would not stay again or recommend this to anyone
First we missed the entrance, of the two signs one was laid on the ground and the other overgrown and obscured. The driveway was uninspiring, a single track around 150m long, in need of repair and covered in moss and tree debris. The parking area was occupied but we managed to park the bike in front of a pile of rubbish, mainly toilet boxes obviously there were repairs being done. First impressions were of a hotel in the process of refurbishment.
Reception was OK, booking in painless and quickly shown to the room. Only one towel provided for two guests but extras were provided on request. The room carpet was obviously not cleaned since last guests. There were only two electrical sockets, one occupied by an air freshener (not working) and the other with a 4way extension. The extension had a broken earth pin in one socket so unusable and unsafe. One light fitting was loose on the wall, but at least it didn't work. Decorative order was poor but adequate. At least the towel(s) and sheets were clean.
Bathroom would be OK if it were clean, shower area was tatty with some black mould and occupied with spiders on the ceiling. We were not inclined to use the shower. Bathroom bin had not been emptied and the toilet had not been cleaned (for some time) and the seat poorly fitted. There was black mould on the end (outside) wall.
There is no excuse for poor cleanliness.
I suspect that one of the refurbished rooms would be acceptable, but the old rooms are in need of serious TLC. At the moment I cannot recommend the hotel.
No hot water for a none existing shower.
No Kettle.
No breakfast.
No door handle.
One towel for a twin room.
The hotel stunk of £&#.?
Please view photos.
I couldn't stay a second night so moved to The White Swan two minutes down the road, absolutely great.
Staff - very polite, late check in was accepted.
Place - hidden behind bushes but can be found easily.
Interior gives you imagine how feel your granddad when he comes to fresh modern hotel. For last 30 years there one piece is added - 22 inch TV.
Never ever have seen trouser press!! That was something new for me. :)
Good place were you can stay for night on business trip when you are tired as dog. Fresh air gives you deep sleep. Somewhere nearby is small town (4k population) and few pubs. I didn't check them because late came and early start my next day.
On arrival there was no one at the property, they had left a piece of paper with a telephone number on to call. When booked on Booking. Com it was booked as a double room. We were shown to our room, the last one on the top floor. It was 2 single beds. Straight away I told the man it was a double room we had booked, but he said no no twin room. I showed him my booking on my phone but he said they we're fully booked. He said we were lucky because this was the last room and he couldn't move us. I actually booked on 28th July 2022 for 3rd August 2022..
When the man had gone to show someone else to their room did we realise one of the single beds was actually 2 mattresses on top of each other, no base at all. There was no light shade, just a bulb, the shower was one you attach to the taps, this was just thrown in the bath, there we're 2 pint glasses in the room, I wouldnt have let a dog use either, they we're really dirty. The sink in the room had no hot water and there was no window or ventilation in the bathroom.
This is a hotel I have passed for many years and said I would go one day, now I wish I hadn't. Me and husband even considered sleeping in the car instead, but we had no toilet, so decided the sooner we got to sleep the sooner it would be morning.
I know the room was expensive but I at least expect hot water and a proper bed.
Set in its own its own grounds. The approach to the country house is delightful. I saw a few rabbits in sections of the garden.
The hotel does need updating/ modernisation, this is just decorative really. I noted that they were in the midst of decorating one of their downstairs lounges.However it was clean, the rooms spacious and our room had a view of trees/ greenery.
They are not doing breakfast currently, so cannot comment on that.
Staff were friendly and helpful.
We arrived on a Friday evening having been to Cadwell Park. We were soaked to the skin, muddy and cold. The owner Kevin welcomed us with a friendly smile and took all of our wet motorbike gear into the drying room. Nothing was a problem for him.
Breakfast was excellent and there was a good choice of food.
Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed.
Kevin just made us feel comfortable and welcome.
When I arrived late in the evening I was taken to my room. I was shown the tea and coffee area but had to point out that there was no kettle. There was one bath towel and nothing else, the room wasn't made up each morning and the lock on my room didn't work. When walking around one side of the bed I walked in a patch of water and looked up to see part of the ceiling hanging down, probably due to the recent rain. On other days/nights the reception was not manned so anyone could have walked in and stolen things. There was however a hand written not on the reception desk with a mobile number and written above it "call me". At best this was a bed (and no breakfast) accommodation and I would advise anyone to steer well clear of booking here.
