This hotel is situated in one of the most beautiful setttings, adjacent to Rutland Water. We have…read morespent two weekends here with family and friends and have found it a positive experience on both occasions. While the accommodation can sometimes be a little on the small side, the rooms are clean and quite well appointed. The restaurant is very good, with a high standard. The staff were attentive and polite and we found the restaurant manager to be particularly attentive to our needs. In contrast, the hotel staff can be a little hit-and-miss, although never rude.
Breakfast at weekends is a rather chaotic affair, with seating arrangements particularly difficult. Food ran out quite quickly and wasn't replaced fast enough, so a lot of time was spent queuing. Toast and coffee were not coordinated with the food and often arrived after the breakfast meal had been consumed.
Dinner (3 courses with wine) is about £45-£50 pp, depending on your choices, but it is of a high standard. The room-rate ranges upward from about £100 per night.
The hotel offers a pool and fitness facilities and, of course, there is ample scope to go walking around the beatiful countryside. A great place for a relaxing, quiet weekend with good food.
