"I stayed in this hotel for 2 weeks with my kids. Traveling from CA. All staff are extremely friendly! Breakfast was great! Wish they had waffles but nonetheless food was good. They have a shell gas station with bfast sandwiches, snacks and amenities across the parking lot. Also a KFC. I would definitely recommend!!"
"We always enjoy our visits to Bosworth House Hotel - lovely staff, wonderful extensive gardens and lots of places to relax. It really is one of my favourite hotels. The very pretty village centre is also just a short walk away.
A perfect 'getaway'."
"The room is what you would expect with the Hotel being situated on the side of the M1.
It can be a little noisy depending on your room location but the rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable.
Good value for the price you pay."
