We had a fantastic weekend, 27 - 29th January at the Belstead Brook Hotel. The staff were welcoming and attentive. The pool was really good and we made the most of the jacuzzi. Our two evening meals were excellent and they must have known two of my favourite vegetables are mange tout and red cabbage! It was my birthday break... More

Visited last year when I thought it needed a facelift. Stayed here again the following Christmas because of the proximity to family and it still needs a facelift. It has attractive reception rooms, expecially the historic panelled dining room, but the bedrooms and bathrooms are looking like they need a bit of TLC. That said, the breakfast was good and... More

We spent one night at this lovely old hotel. OK it is a little tired but some of it dates back to the 16th century! Service was very friendly and efficient. Dinner was delicious and very good value when booked in advance. The room was good, crisp white bedding, comfy towels and good tea-making equipment. TV a bit old but... More

I recently stayed here with some friends and my partner for my 35th birthday. We booked a spa deal via spabreaks. It was excellent value. I wasn't expecting too much as we had dinner, spa treatment and room upgrade included for a very good price. However, we were all very pleasantly surprised. The rooms we stayed in (executive rooms) were... More

For the fifth consecutive year we spent an extended New Year celebration here. Although only 30 minutes drive away this is a hotel that we return to at other times just for a break and change of scenery. The down side of staying here is that this hotel, as with others in the chain, are in joint admnistrative receivership (this... More

Sorry that you were not informed when you made your booking that the only catering services available to guests not attending the pre-booked Gala Dinner Dance were on a Bed and Breakfast basis only. We thought that all guests had been advised of the limited services when booking. Our New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner Dance was fully booked and we... More
