Gardens and building Lovely
Could do with fan in room as unable to open window as sash cord broken
Tv had linited channels as most weren't working
Not able to order food in the evening in restaurant on a monday
Cocktails £12 but it would have been helpful if there was a description on the menu of what each cocktail consisted of, rather than have to ask what each one was

Very lovely enclosed courtyard and parking area that was safe for dogs - lovely staff and facilities. Could offer dog food perhaps as some pubs do now!! (dog friendly sausage & mash for example)

I stayed for 1 night in February, Very glad I found this hotel. The location, though tucked away, is peaceful and beautiful. I had an very nice room for a bargain price. The restaurant was excellent. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

We have been staying at the hotel for the past 15 years. We also recommend it to family and friends. We love the location and the appearance and lovely grounds. We hardly spent any time in the hotel on this occasion. Our room was lovely and spacious. The bathroom is looking tired but it is very clean. Breakfast was lovely, and ordered from the table. We feel that the hotel and Makeney is our "happy place". Overall, a lovely stay and we'll definitely be back. Thank you

Unfortunately our room was above the function room and there was a wedding on. The dico was very loud so we couldn't think about sleeping until after midnight when the disco finished!
The shower was very poor as you had to hold the attachment in your hand. I couldn't use it as there were no grab handles or slip mat! The bed was far too soft for our liking .... you could feel the springs!
We arrived at breakfast half an hour before service finished so fried eggs were solid and they had totally run out of butter!
On the positive side. The rooms were very spacious in the main building. We were also able to check in at midday rather than 3pm as we had arrived early to park the car and go to a different venue for a wedding!
Apart from the solid eggs and lack of butter the breakfast was good.

The room was separated from the neighbouring room by a internal anointing door and you could hear every word that the neighbours were saying and they were not quite, we paid extra for a king size bed but we were given two single beds pushed together and one was at least 3 inches higher than the other as shown in pictures. The room was like something out of a 70 time warp and it was not clean the carpet was dirty the staff were nice but it in no way made up for its shortcomings.

Polite and friendly staff. Cleanliness was obviously a priority. The hotel proved a wonderful centre for the places we had planned to visit and a great place to return to to rest. The meals we ordered were splendid and the breakfast choices were splendid.
