We booked 2 rooms for one night as it was a great location for visiting Gloucester and Cheltenham. The rooms were comfortable but looking a little run down. The staff was very friendly, breakfast was good and quiet location.

Nice hotel
Character hotel bordering miles of countryside. Comfortable large bed on top floor, with good breakfast. had already eaten on arrival so cannot comment on evening meal. Top floor room did have sloping ceiling, but no issue. Plenty of free parking and lovely quiet setting.

New years eve
Had a lovely stay for the new year. Staff were brilliant but this hotel is in need of some updating. We had a superior suite but the bathroom was in need of updating and the carpet in the bedroom had stains all over it. We probably wouldn’t stay again for these reasons. The New Year’s Eve party was excellent and the staff were great.

Bedroom and bathroom needed a deep clean, carpets shampooing. Needed to ring reception on day of arrival as stains on bottom sheet and tear in quilt cover. Dealt with quickly but expected better. Breakfast was fantastic as were all the staff. Hotel room felt worn. Big lounge but no christmas tree or any decorations which would have been festive.

Nice but a little tired.
The hotel itself is nice with good staff. We had a lovely welcome at reception. Our room was tucked away from any noise but to be fair we didn't hear anything. The room was spacious but felt a little tired and the carpet had a couple of stains. We had a drink in the bar which whilst pleasant felt expensive at £18. I think as a hotel venue people look pass a lot of the issues but as a couple I'm not sure I'd return.
