Clapton-in-Gordano Holidays from AU$2,942

Very comfortable stay and helpful welcoming hosts. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of choice. We had a good night's sleep and the room was very clean.

Room was quirky, as was the Manor House. No tv in the bedroom, no shower, or tea/ coffee facilities. Very small double bed. We were told if we wanted a drink we could ask but it would be served downstairs. Reception was closed between 9pm-8am. Poor Choice of wine by the glass. First choice not available. Outside was definitely in need of investment and general taking care of. Grounds were overgrown and quite shabby. Outside the restaurant was under fig trees which was very overgrown. We booked this because of the chef reputation but food was not amazing. It lacked imagination and quality. Four choices of starter but three were pate type! Asked for Koffmann pommes frites but I got regular skinny fries which were incredibly salty. Breakfast was included but cooked breakfast was extra with lots of dishes at extra cost. Overall it lacks a lot, especially investment. Staff were unhelpful. Reception area looked unfinished in a dark room, with empty bookcases and pictures on the floor. Good to experience but won’t be back! It could be amazing, but it wasn’t. Shame!

It’s tired but ok just ..
