Nice overnight stay with friends. Deal included room, evening meal (£25 allowance pp) and breakfast. Hotel was bigger than I expected and there was a wedding and a birthday party but we didn’t really notice them. Lots of different seating areas and a couple of bars. Good leisure and fitness centre. Also a tennis court and play area. Nice grounds and outdoor seating areas if the weather had been better. Big car park. Room was in the Pavillion annexe so a few steps outdoors to get to main building. Decor was outdated but it was very clean and spacious with a patio on ground floor/balcony on upper floors. Comfy bed and pillows. Tea and coffee and other usual facilities. Staff very friendly from check in to waiting staff in restaurant. Mostly quiet except for children running up and down the corridors/stairs but that’s down to the parents 🙄 not the hotel. Food in the Flame restaurant was very good. Pub 5 mins walk down road was very accommodating too. Handy location off A417. Returning customers get 10% off. Only downside was not being able to get a hot drink in the restaurant or bar after 10pm. Very unusual in a hotel. I was desperate for a cuppa after dinner while we were sitting and chatting quietly in bar but had to wait until I got back to room, which was a bit late. Wasn’t the only one who asked and was disappointed. Shouldn’t be difficult to organise. Maybe a machine in the lounge area? I’ll take my insulated mug next time!
