Just a one overnight stay at the hotel but a lovely stay it was! It’s a beautiful building both inside and out and has wonderful members of staff. Dinner was excellent and the breakfast spread was impressive, although the restaurant is a squeeze when it gets busy. Great location for visiting Stratford or Alcester and would highly recommend.

“Pleasant”

We recently had a pleasant 2 night stay. It's an attractive period building with some interesting panelled public rooms and attractive gardens. Our room, though in a modern block, had been designed to give a period feel. It was quiet, and what seemed like a truck/van depot adjacent to the room didn't particularly bother us. The service sadly was a tad mixed; sometimes charming and efficient, other times slow and bordering on indifferent/rude. Perhaps there's a training opportunity? We had breakfast and a dinner at the hotel. The breakfast was buffet style and was entirely adequate, though not outstanding. Dinner was tasty and enjoyable. Value? Decent enough.

“Very pleasant but not luxurious”

I spent two nights there with a friend for a spa weekend. It's a delightful location which is very easy to reach from the M40 and only a 10 minute drive from Stratford. We had a spacious and clean room with a modern and clean bathroom and the beds were very comfortable (and I'm a fussy customer when it comes to mattresses and pillows!). The garden is gorgeous and we were lucky enough to have a room overlooking it. It would have been good to have had some herbal teas in the room as well as tea, coffee and hot chocolate but otherwise I couldn't fault the room at all. The restaurant was very cosy and we had a really tasty meal (satay cauliflower as well as a selection of sharing starters) there on the first night. However, there was limited choice for vegetarians/vegans. The swimming pool is a decent size for a small hotel and there was plenty of space to swim lengths. The sauna is small but adequate. The steam room wasn't hot or particularly steamy on either day that we were there. We had a massage in the spa and mine wasn't great. It somewhat lacked the luxury feel I expected, including the couch being very firm and not very comfortable or well heated. Furthermore, It was advertised as a 60 minute treatment but I was told on arrival it was a 55 minute treatment and it actually only lasted for 50 minutes. Breakfast was a very basic and "no frills" experience. The breakfast staff were not very attentive. My tea order was wrong on the first morning and didn't arrive at all on the second morning. The breakfast experience seemed somewhat incongruous with the dinner experience and was more what I'd expect at a basic budget hotel. Overall, we did have a lovely stay and wouldn't fault the hotel as a whole and would recommend it but a few very simple touches could give it more of a luxury feel.
