After brilliant 1st vusit disappointing 2nd visit
Having previously stayed whilst on a coach trip and really enjoyed excellent food etc we fully expected the same on this occasion, however were disappointed on arrival during a very cold November afternoon to note that there was no heating on in the hotel making for a very cold entry in the foyer and more importantly in our bedroom. It eventually came on around 4.00 - 4.30 pm. We went downstairs to enjoy a G&T before evening dinner and the gentleman in charge greeted us saying that he had lit a log fire in the foyer lounge which was the only place to sit as the bar lounge and large dining room were not open due to there being few people staying and no coach parties. I immediately noticed that my glass had lipstick marks round the rim so asked for it to be changed. He then returned with my drink. We chose a table in the dining room for our evening meal next to a radiator having felt chilled however both at that time and at breakfast the following morning the radiator was cold and no heating apparent. My meal (vegetarian curry with mango chutney) was missing the mango chutney and my husband’s meal (steak & ale pie with carrots and green beans) was not up to a good standard. The carrots were extremely hard to cut but also of a rubbery consistency and the kidney beans soggy. The pastry too was hard. The area is lovely but the hotel looked ‘tired’ & our bathroom sink had a large crack in the basin. At break’fst 1 serving spoon for 2 types fruit, 1 of muesli &1 yoghurt!
Lovely area around the hotel for seeing wild life
Enjoying heat from fire after cold welcome
Wonderful red squirrels to watch and enjoy
