We had a fantastic nights stay here. We had the family room which was large enough to accommodate us comfortably. The room was well equipped with a trouser press, bottled water, tea and coffee making facilities. The on-suite was modern and spacious with a shower cubicle and bath. The owners are most welcoming and nothing was ever too much trouble... More

We don't normally pay this much for a hotel, but could not find a local chain close to where we needed to be for a funeral same day of booking. This hotel is convenient for Swaffham and touring local countryside and places of interest. However, we were on a more sobre mission. The bed was supremely comfortable as were the... More

We have been coming to Lydney House for some years now, (last time 5 years ago). Since that last visit David and Sarah have upgraded the hotel substantially to a very comfortable, well appointed homely hotel. We were there for the Thursford Christmas Show last week-end with our extended family, 12 in total. We enjoyed a lovely meal on the... More

Lydney House combines the professional feeling of a larger hotel with the warmth of a family-run establishment. Friendly and hospitable management, excellent service, interesting building in a very friendly small town. The great lounge/bar is a virtual time capsule with its intact 70s style interior and furniture, providing for a fantastic (if unintended) retro/cult feeling. But with WiFi, of course!

My overnights at this hotel must now run into double figures, and have all been superb in terms of an excellent night's rest (VERY quiet location) and superb showers to wake up in. I have no doubt that some of the earlier reviews were accurate...the hotel has the potential to be a quiet, rundown B&B. HOWEVER, the fairly recent renovations... More

Clean with plenty of coat hangers in the wardrobe and very good lighting making it a pleasure to read in bed with 2 large pillows and a... More

I have been visiting this little guest house for years now and am taken with the place. It is run by a very helpful, friendly family who live on site. The bedrooms are comfortable and modern, with sizes to suit everybody. The bathrooms have recently been refurbished and are lovely! Loved having the "local pub" downstairs, with its comfy arm...

My husband booked us into this place a few years ago - he has never lived it down - or been trusted to book a hotel unsupervised again! Stained bed linen, black mould round the bath and the most unspeakable bathroom carpet I have ever encountered - didn't go in there in bare feet! Pity - it would have been... More

Since the date of stay we have changed our linen supplier & are delighted to report a great improvement in both the quality of the linen itself and the quality of the wash/exchange. All our bath & shower rooms have been taken out right back to the plaster & floor boards. All replaced with new including hygienic safety flooring. All... More

I booked the George Hotel but was called by the management on the day of arrival to say that there was a problem with the room and would I stay at Lydney House instead. As this was only a 2 star I did not expect too much. To my surprise I foound this to be an extremely comfortable hotel. Good... More
