“Return visit”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 February 2012

person found this review helpful

This was our second visit to the D.D-we first came after seeing the excellent "The Hotel" in August lastyear..Our second Sunday night saver deal which is excellent value.So lovely to return-and it was all last minute a valentines present which made it twice as nice.On arrival the fabulous log fire was extermely welcoming. We were very well greeted by Lavina who is always a pleasure.We were very happy with our spotless and very large well appointed room.A drink in the lovely bar overlooking the gardens(which were still covered in snow-very pretty)-lovely to see Amos again-he is such a polite young man.Dinner was amazing.the yorkshire rhubarb creme burlee was the best desert i`ve ever had.But for us the icing on the cake was having a chat and a laugh with Wayne.He gave us the latest gossip on the new Hotel tv show-which may i add isn`t a patch on the orginal Hotel-lol and Wayne should so have his own show or at least a slot on Harry Hill!!!Ok night sleep but i never sleep any where on the first night and breakfast was great the next day.its a wonderful place to stay very relaxing-all flows so well under Waynes management.hope to return in the summer.Thanks all x

“value break”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Having booked a TravelZoo offer in November for my wifes birthday break, we couldn't go but were pleasantly surprised to be told by reception when we cancelled to use our credit up at some later date. For wedding anniversary w/e of 5th and 6th February, we made it and again, were happy that the staff informed us that we could transfer the whole TravelZoo offer to that w/e as there was a new TravelZoo offer. The staff were great, food was good and we enjoyed the break with walks in the snowy area that Sunday. Bluebell 4 poster suite was hopelessly noisy from walking and bathroom noises from room above. In middle of night the snorer above was not heavy but it just meant that you heard 'everything'. Requested room change for next night. Room 2 was offered and we accepted a 'downgrade' for a quite sleep. Still could near too much of neighbouring room from bathroom but slept well. So, it is the historic construction of the buildings that amounts to a less than satisfactory 'room experience' but this is sort of compensated by the service and food. And it seemed reasonable value.

Room Tip: Bluebell suite can hear all occupants above.

“Nice break”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012 via mobile

person found this review helpful

We booked this hotel through Groupon and that made it exceptionally good value. Our room was on the lower floor and was clean warm with new looking furniture. The bathroom was a bit warn and in need of repair, just one or two things that let it down. We had. Meal included the first night which was lovely with a good choice for vegetarians, it was the same for breakfast which is unusual. The bar was nice for an evening drink and the sofas by the fire at the front are lovely for chilling out. This is a quiet hotel out of the way, the service is good, not sure I would want to pay the full price for the room we stayed in but at the right price it's a good option for the location.
