Friendly, welcoming and helpful Staff. Comfortable stay. Tasty Supper. Good Breakfast however the bread would have been better toasted underneath the smashed avocado and poached eggs which were exemplary. Thank you all. Best regards from Amanda

So-so
Room was standard but walls are thin. Could hear snoring from next door and people talking/walking in the corridor. The central heating was very noisy. So all in all not conducive to sleep.
Our room had a bath but reception staff advised beforehand it only had a shower.
Food in the restaurant was good and there was plenty of room for our family gathering.
It is a very convenient place to stay if you're exploring the local sights, such as Puzzlewood and Symonds Yat, which were both worth a visit.

One night stay.
Lovely setting and close to Cleawell Castle where we had a wedding to go to. Quiet hotel even though busy. Lovely breakfast in the clubhouse and service excellent.
