“Sunday lunch in Harry’s Bar.”

Went for a family meal in the hotel’s Harry’s Bar. It Was very very busy , as a Sunday, with all tables full (looked a little cramped in there if I’m honest) but fortunately we were given a table, a little outside in the bigger area, as we had a few members of our family with us dining.

Went for a family meal in the hotel’s Harry’s Bar. It Was very very busy , as a Sunday, with all tables full (looked a little cramped in there if I’m honest) but fortunately we were given a table, a little outside in the bigger area, as we had a few members of our family with us dining. As it was very busy had to wait but when the food came it was delicious , especially the lamb and the gravy was gorgeous, which is important to set off the whole meal - obviously a very very talented chef - BIG well done! Our young waitress was excellent too - thank you. Only comment would be one of the child’s meal - the garlic baguette starter wasn’t quite a “baguette” more two slices of baguette. Also the child’s fish and chips was very small - especially the amount of chips - ( one of our young diner’s wasn’t impressed they could count the amount of child too easily ) whereas the other child’s pizzas was more than value of money and they said it was tasty. Lots of local people use this restaurant regularly I’m told and return many times - so well done on the whole and I’m sure we will return - just increase the size of the child’s fish and chips option to make the youngsters happier and be far better value of money . Thank you.

“Good Venue. Poor Entertainment.”

Hired Four Ashes Suite for a private function together with rooms. Venue and staff were excellent and would recommend.

Hired Four Ashes Suite for a private function together with rooms. Venue and staff were excellent and would recommend. However, from my experience, would advise against using their recommended DJ Ian Rogers. Having paid and booked well in advance, no DJ turned up to our function on the night. Alternative arrangements were made at short notice which was appreciated, but music started almost 2 hours late. We were advised that some reimbursement would be made to compensate for the stress and anxiety caused which did spoil the event, but having tried to contact Ian Rogers, no response or apology was received. Some friends and family stayed overnight and rooms were clean and good value. Breakfast was excellent.

“Disappointed”

Attended a family member's 60th birthday party at the hotel and booked a one night stay refurbished room. Upon booking I mentioned that my husband was over 80 and had mobility issues.

Attended a family member's 60th birthday party at the hotel and booked a one night stay refurbished room. Upon booking I mentioned that my husband was over 80 and had mobility issues. I was very disappointed with the room given as it was a good walking distance to get to and very cold and noisy with building work being carried out above our room. My sister had the same problem with her room being far and having to climb stairs she had her room changed to a more accessible one. Also a few of us had travelled from London and got to the hotel a bit early to check in but the reception area was not big enough to accommodate enough guests. We asked if there was somewhere in the hotel we could go and sit and have coffee only to be told it was closed and there's a Costa a few minutes away down the road. On a plus side the Garden room for the partywas beautiful and the food was delicious.
