We stayed here for three nights in September iin connection with the MX5 Owners club Autumn Rally. The setting of the hotel is beautiful with lovely trees, and considering it is on the outskirts of Sheffield it was very quiet. Service from all staff was excellent, especially Tina in Reception who went the extra mile to be particularly helpful. Had a meal in the Wine Bar which was excellent, fast service and competitively priced. Room was beautiful, very tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean with a lovely private bathroom. Bed was really comfortable. They also put on a meal for over 200 people in a marquee in the garden on the Saturday night, which was excellent. Our only criticism was that the hotel itself offered to serve those of us in the Club our breakfast half an hour early on the Saturday and Sunday so we could get to the rally itself and runs through the countryside on time. This was obviously a bit of a challenge for the restaurant, and on the Saturday after waiting 40 minutes for my husband's breakfast we left as we would have been late for the morning car run, and they only seemed to have one yogurt in the whole place. Sunday wasn't much better although we did get some toast, but this time there was no yogurt at all despite the fact it is on the menu. However, they did redeem themselves on the Monday morning, with breakfast being served at their usual time. It was really good, lots of choices from the help yourself buffet, and my husband's cooked breakfast was served promptly and was very good.

We stayed here for 2 nights as part of a big convention. The room was nice, spacious with a 4 poster bed. However the latter was soft and not that comfortable - kept rolling into the middle and slept badly. Room also quite cold.

Bathroom was big with a bath and shower. Taps were a nightmare - could not turn hot tap off in bath which was pretty uncomfortable - had a real struggle yet cold sink taps would not turn on easily.

Hotel itself was quite nice but no lifts. The breakfast in Christian's Restaurant was very disorganised. On the 2nd morning we were all there from the convention and all needed to get out early. They arranged for the restaurant to open half hour early but were not prepared in the kitchen or restaurant. Service was seriously slow - some people waited over an hour from ordering despite several requests and many were served out of turn which was unfair. Toast only saw the grill on one side, butter was melted then refridgerated, fried eggs were solid, wrong items arrived. Service was slow and surly.

Reception offered us a discount rather than us asking because they knew how awful breakfast had been so it must have been bad.

What a horrid place! So over priced. The restaurant tries so hard to be something it isn't, the menu reminds me of a Bernie inn from the 1980's and is so expensive it's ridiculous. The staff were rude and lazy (other than the bar staff). I wouldn't recommend anyone to stay or eat here. What a shame considering that the grounds are nice and peaceful. I think the chefs should take some lessons in modern cuisine. The rooms were acceptable but no more. If this place wants to be a success then it should try much harder.

Hotel was clean and reception were always cheerful and very helpful. Kettle and hairdryer in room. Shampoo and shower gel in bathroom. Very quiet and clean room which had obviously recently been refurbished and it was a nice size. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful and staff were attentive. Buffet cereals and cooked breakfast. Our only gripe was someone had obviously been smoking in our room and we also smelt smoke along the corridor. Plenty of car parking.
