The staff were very helpful and friendly, the meal myself and my wife had was amazing. We also had a free room upgrade.

The room was excellent. Spacious bedroom and bathroom. Very comfortable bed and a great walk-in shower. Nice rolltop bath although I didn't have time to use it. The breakfast was very good with a great choice of alternatives to the standard full English.

The meal in the restaurant was a bit of a let down. My steak was overcooked and the expensive (by choice) white wine we had with our starter was poured without asking if we wanted to try it first. The waitress was very nice so I'd suggest it was a training issue rather than a lack of interest. On the second night we walked across the park into town and had a very nice meal at the Impeccable Pig which is also highly recommended.

Large clean and airy room and very, very comfortable, massive bed and with a great view. Lovely location. Friendly staff. Nice restaurant and bar. Ample parking. Beautiful rural setting. Large selection of breakfast items.

One day, we had a different room service lady who only changed one of the used cups and only provided one new bottle of water (for two people). The socket beside the bed on one side made a loud humming noise when switched on, but this didn't detract from the overwhelming positives (and we just didn't use that socket).

Great location. Long driveway to the main house with the lake view. There was a walking/running track around the lake and grounds. Parked right outside the main house. Very easy and quick check in. After unpacking we had a nice drink in the bar followed by a delicious and reasonably priced meal in the bar. Our stay was only two nights, the room was ample and quiet with a lake view. the bathroom was clean and well appointed. In room coffee, tea, iron & board, hairdryer etc. were of a good standard

I drive a Hybrid car, I would have liked an option to charge it overnnight.

The park and grounds were beautiful and very well kept. The hotel itself was Accessable with plenty of parking. The staff were very helpful and pleasant. We stayed in the large room and the bed was huge and so comfortable, the bathroom too. Breakfast was amazing with plenty of choice, help yourself with some continental choices as well as full English, Lovely staff to assist too.

We booked a table in the steakhouse for the evening, it was very expensive so I was expecting to be blown away with the meal. It was nice and the staff were lovely but it was just that, nice. I don't think it was worth the price.

I booked last minute and fancied somewhere quiet. Just wow. What a lovely location and building. Everything was spot on. The most relaxing place to have a beer by the lake and finish the days work on the laptop. I have stayed at a few manor type hotels and they are often dated and dishevelled but this was fantastic. I might even plan my next trip around staying here again.

Slightly picky but the steak is >£30. For that money I would have expected a better cut of meat. It was cooked well and tasted fine but, chips were great and the sauce was delicious. I eat a decent steak places often and this was the one and only disappointing thing. I had a Ribeye the night before also and this was like butter, the steak here was a bit chewy and had a fair bit gristle. Price was about the same. It's the buyer not the chef..

Room was clean, comfortable, a good size with an excellent view over the lake. The whole hotel exuded atmosphere and charm. An old building set in a wonderful parkland with access to a good mornings walk in the local Park. Parking was plentiful. Breakfast was produced swiftly and was well cooked. Plenty of variety provided. Didn't eat in restaurant as on a family visit in the area. Would love to stay again on another occasion.

No issuesChar

We attended a wedding at the hotel. We loved the size of room. We loved walking around the autumn tress was so awesome and the fresh air. The wedding was so beautiful. We enjoyed breakfast with the bridal couple. The food was very taste. I loved that it was all local products. We had a lovely receptionist that was always so helpful. The bathroom was large with a bath and shower.

Loved it sadly too far from london and we paid so much for train and taxi as well so will not be comming back. But was an unforgettable trip.

The warm reception and effort to accommodate our arrangements (we were part of a large group staying at Hardwick Hall attending a wedding at a local venue). We ate at the hotel across all meal times and were impressed by the service and quality of the food. The staff are an asset including those assigned to clean bedrooms who were efficient, helpful and cheery. Thank you for making us all feel so welcome. My cousin (hard to please!) was very impressed with the service from all staff and also her room which had a view of the lake - that’s high recommendation itself! The grounds are spectacular and everyone took advantage of the walks around the lakes and wooded areas. Thank you for your care and consideration.

The bedroom was quite warm

Beautiful settings, view of lake was super. Very well furnished interiors. Room was spotlessly clean and spacious. Dinner in restaurant was delicious.

Bedside lights didn't work. Bathroom plumbing: unplugged the sink and draining water came up through the bath plug hole bringing up lots of gunk. Reported to receptionist but she couldn't have been lass interested. Maybe a purpose built spa would enhance the whole experience.
