This was my second stay at this hotel, and once again, it exceeded my expectations. The rooms are spacious, impeccably clean, and beautifully decorated, with incredibly comfortable beds that guarantee a restful night’s sleep. The surrounding grounds are absolutely picturesque—perfect for a peaceful stroll or simply soaking in the view. One of the standout features is the breakfast, which is easily one of the best I’ve ever had at a hotel. A special mention goes to Amanda, who runs the breakfast service with warmth, humour, and genuine hospitality. She creates such a welcoming atmosphere that you instantly feel at home. As someone who works in the hotel industry myself, I know how challenging the job can be, but Amanda handles everything with effortless grace. She’s truly a credit to the team. I’m already looking forward to my third visit!

Stayed 3 nights 28/31st March. Mandy and all staff were warm and welcoming. Room comfortable with modern bathroom, but felt it could use a small drawer unit for clothing not suited to hangers (would fit inside wardrobe) well stocked hospitality tray replenished daily. Good choice of breakfast, evening meal delicious. Beautiful building, lovely areas inside and out to sit and relax. Our room overlooked the road, some traffic noise but this did not impact our sleep. Would highly recommend.

I used to live in Hereford as a child, so it was lovely to come back to a pub that my parents used to take me to. It's a proper old school 'inn' and the food was lovely. We had the Sunday roast and it was very enjoyable. TV was one that you could log into Netflix etc on, so that gave more choice of viewing. Lots of original beams and timber in the room, felt modern and old at the same time.

The road from Hereford to Fownhope was closed just before Fownhope, could have done with a message to that effect from the hotel beforehand so we could have worked out an alternative route, but reception gave us good directions when we phoned them.

Lovely village setting. Nice garden and courtyard to sit and relax with a drink. We walked along the river which was beautiful. Clean room and bathroom, comfy bed and bedding.

We loved everything about the property and Amanda welcomed us warmly, the manager and evening staff were delightful. Sadly I think the breakfast let the stay down. The waitress was stressed and snappy and the drinks and breakfast were cold. We felt too unsettled to ask her to replenish the milk and juice jug and there was no decaf coffee, which is a requirement for some. This is such a shame as the evening meal was delicious and we were served by happy staff.

We stayed here three nights and the staff were all attentive and helpful. The quiet village location was excellent for our purposes of visiting the Malvern Hills and Hereford. It has a good size car park and a lovely beer garden with good beer & wine, with walks literally from the doorstep that were delightful. We had requested a Deluxe Double room and is was superb, it was large, with a balcony, well decorated, a clean spacious bathroom with a shower that was great, and a comfortable bed. The breakfast choice was good, and both breakfasts and evening meals were a really good quality at a reasonable price. We'd thoroughly recommend it to anyone visiting the area, overall it was excellent value and a lovely place to stay and eat.

Stunning old building. Very quaint and Christmassy. We had a leaky towel heater and the staff were amazing and changed our room straight away. Really good breakfasts, only improvement would be more pastries and more veggie/vegan options. But the full veggie breakfast was great! We've stayed before and would love to stay again.

I would always urge places to think about guests who apply makeup when thinking about their mirrors, lighting, chair options etc. And especially consider those who wear makeup and glasses who need to be close to a mirror. A moveable chair, full length mirror and good, non-harsh lighting is perfect for that. But clearly that's quite fussy, we had a great stay!

Accommodation and staff were excellent The only downside was the food on the Sunday evening . I know Sunday lunches are served most of the day but unfortunately two of our friends has lamb which was probably the end of the supply and there was not very much of it .It all felt a bit dried up . Should have complained but didn’t so I suppose it’s my fault . The Sunday menu we were given was not the Sunday menu on the website from memory so disappointing . Would I stay again , probably yes but I might look around the area to see if there are alternative places to eat on a Sunday.

- Large car park, plenty of spaces - Dog allowed in bar area - Great location for country walks - Extremely clean inside and out - Nice decor and well maintained grounds - Varied continental breakfast selection - Full English was rich and filling

- Small tv, size of A4 piece of paper - Lack of towel hooks, the shower was at the opposite end of the room to the towel rail - Slip hazards, shower tray, bathroom tiles - No storage options for toiletries - No iron - Different mattresses for each single bed pushed into a superking, uneven sizes - Only filter coffee at breakfast though coffee machine clearly on and not given as an option - Automatic 10% service charge at dinner. However, wrong drink order, gave a fork for a soup starter and scallop was cut into thirds

Lovely room and a friendly greeting, the ambience of the building together with the history which has been preserved throughout.

Although we had booked a table for dinner the service was extremely slow I think we had been forgotten! It took 2 hours to eat just two courses!! If we visit again we would probably eat in the bar. Also we were unable to order the dessert we wanted as there was none left (Thursday evening about 8pm) and when we ordered an alternative there was no custard available!! The breakfast was really good thanks

Great location, and the room was lovely, bathroom very good size.. The food was excellant, exceptional, and really, really good. The staff were friendly and helpful.

The Zip link bed, there was a very noticeable gap in the middle ... and one side was worn out more than the other.. fortunately, my husbands side ! I'm not a fan of zip link beds... so next time, I will check first and book a room with a normal double bed!
