Wonderful green belt around the hotel that really makes you feel you are out in the country. However, there are large homes on the other site of the green belt. Very quiet place. Rooms are very spacious. Downside, there is really not a lunch time there. If you want lunch you need to ask the staff and they will ask the chef if he has time to do it. To me, this is silly. Why would you ask the chef if a customer wants to spend their money. By USA standards, that would never happen.

I like to visit a place more than once before reviewing, it's only fair I think. The first time I…read morewent to this pub with the inlaws was for Sunday Lunch and today we went for a light lunch. The setting opposite the station is convenient, and if you sit outside the garden is really very nice indeed with a play area for children a covered area and an open area. There are lots of tables but they're well spaced out so you don't feel crowded. The only problem with the tables is they are not quite big enough for 4 people to eat together but fine for couples. The price of drinks is reasonable for a pub, we had soft drinks (one lemonade and lime and a diet coke) which cost less than £3. Now onto the food. Its not good news I'm afraid. When we had the Sunday lunch the vegetable were really soggy and had been cooked in a weird orange lightly curried oil. They sat in a little pool of orange oil on our plates and were inedible. We won't be going back for more. Today we decided to try something from the bar menu. It was pretty quiet, no more than 4 tables of people eating but it took them a whole HOUR to bring us 4 basic cold sandwiches. Plus we didn't get them all at once, my and my partner got ours a good 10 minutes before my inlaws' arrived though we'd ordered together. While we were waiting for them I had asked the passing bar man how long they would be, he was frankly rude and just snapped 'they're coming'. I'd ordered a cheese and pickle sandwich which comes with salad and a choice of chips or spicy fries. I'd asked for spicy fries but got plain chips. No explanation was offered but my MIL did overhear the barmaid telling someone else they didn't have any. The bread was bog-standard supermarket sliced, the cheese was bland and the pickle just standard from the jar stuff. It was ok, not good not bad just acceptable. They were £4 for the cheese and pickle and £5 for the chicken baguette. A jacket potato with cheese and beans would set you back £5.25 which I think is a bit steep. The chicken baguettes were no better. Save your money and make your own to take to the park I'd say. We're not going back.

There seems to be a little bit of more…read moreformality, slightly stuffier atmosphere here than other places: the afternoon high tea in restaurant needs to be reserved ahead of time, I was assigned a table to sit for breakfast..and only after insisting that I wanted to be by specific area that I was allowed to do so --it was way early on Sunday morning so no other guests was there for breakfast either. The room was large and nice. I stayed in the main hotel building (slightly more expensive room than what I wanted because the standard room ran out). The bed though was a little small for 2 people...bit I guess maybe that's more common in the UK. Upon check in though I think the cleaning staff accidentally forgot a piece of cloth for cleaning on the windowsill around the curtain. ..ok ...mistake happened I guess..but that along with stuffiness of the atmosphere was not what I expected as much for the price paid (net close to USD400 a night!). The hotel was a little into countryside and slightly away from a train station. Plus, there isn't much within walking vicinity, so it's best to probably have a rental car on your own rather than always relying on taxis I think. A plus is breakfast is included...nice cold spread and hit menu selection for sure. Overall, ok hotel. A change for environment I'm typically used to..but I think if I'm around the area next time, I would probably try checking out other places instead.

There's a bar and a Beefeater restaurant attached, with the usual menus that you would expect.

We were shown to room 50 and dumped our bags as were were running late. This room is situated very close to the main road and the windows do little to diffuse the traffic noise. The sink in the bathroom took over 35 seconds to drain from being 1/2 full so how it could have ever had been cleaned hygienically in the first place is beyond me. The area behind the door where the kettle is had a wall splattered with coffee / tea stains - again another example of the lack of cleanliness. I have complained direct to the customer relations on line and also via telephone and they have replied "However, we do apologise that you were not happy with the cleanliness of the room so as a goodwill gesture for this we are happy to offer £20.00 worth of Leisure Vouchers to yourself. These vouchers would be sent by post and can be used either as a discount on a future Premier Inn Flexible booking only, or they can be used in our restaurants and many other outlets outside of Premier Inn. If you wanted to fine out more about Leisure Vouchers please visit www.leisurevouchers.co.uk If you would be able to respond to this email with the appropriate address for us to send these to we can arrange this right away for you. I hope this has been of some assistance and I do apologise for any inconvenience caused." I find this an insult especially from a company that promises a good night sleep or your money back. I spoke to a Rebecca in customer services who reiterated the fact that they were only prepared to offer £20 in vouchers and no cash refund for our stay. I have video evidence of the sink and photos of the wall and but unfortunately not a bottle of the smell that is everywhere in this hotel. You know when a hotel has something wrong when it has pre-printed cards with the wording on it that says " We're sorry you didn't have a great stay". I am sure the local printer company is happy as I am sure these are handed out on a regular basis! DO NOT STAY HERE !!!!!
