A gem of a place
Wonderful one night stay as part of exploring Rutland Water and area over a weekend. Worth staying here for the fabulous food alone (amazing menu and incredibe service). Room was large, clean and comfortable. Lovely peninsula walk (5.5 or 7 mile options) right on the doorstep and a short drive to two nature / bird reserves. Would recommend and we will hopefully be back.

Lunch service on a Friday was poor with an uninspired menu served by an indifferent and sometimes surly team, breakfast Saturday excellent and with friendly natural service - lunch for large group on Saturday was average for both so overall i can only recommend the stay and breakfast , the information and web site grossly over rates the venues culinary and service capabilities - i dont say this lightly as im a Food and Beverage Director so know about challenges but feel honest feed back is better than the usual blah blah blah everything was wonderful when it wasnt

Fun charming stay in a beautiful location
The Finch team gathered for us a jug of shampoo to utilise their gorgeous big baths but could have been better if they were already their of a bath bomb etc.
We have booked again for Valentines weekend because it very clean, great location, food and drink was great and the service was excellent.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and the accommodation was good value. Food in particular was lovely!
Service was quirky but that just added to the relaxed vibe of this lovely place.

Certain lack of attention to details. Bath body wash dispenser empty.
Bar tables, inside and out, left cluttered with dirty glasses etc.

What a great place to stay and eat
What a great place!
Excellent rooms, great food and drinks.
Service was perfect
My only gripe was a very squeaky floor in the bedroom
