“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had a wonderful stay at the Shooting Lodge. The lodge was spotless, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed. The peaceful setting, beautiful views, and wildlife made it the perfect place to relax.
The hosts were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic stay. Nothing was too much trouble.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Shooting Lodge”
“We had a wonderful stay at Curlew Cottage.
The location is great with fantastic views over the dales, although the weather was against us a bit.
The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped. Everything we needed for self catering was provided.
The only thing we would have liked was a mattress topper as my wife and I found the bed a little firm, but that is personal preference.
We had the absolute pleasure of seeing the resident barn owl on a few occasions which was a real treat.
All in...
“Over all not the stay we were hoping for. The carvery roast and breakfast was good and the staff were nice. But the spa was not included in the room cost as described making it not worth £148 a night, the 4 poster bed was not as described in the online photos and the bedroom window opens up over another rooms private hot tub where they allow other guests to smoke all night filling our room with smoke.”
“Let's start with the good - the hotel has been restored to a decent level. The furnishings are nice and the rooms are lovely. They should be lovely because this hotel is supposed to be five star and they are charging well above the standard rate.
Unfortunately this is where the good ends...the staff are not well trained and not attentive to hotel guests. When we arrived reception, staff were engaged in a private conversation before attending to guests. Soon after we arrived there was a long...
“Very disappointing.
Room was cold and tv not working.
Left voicemail for contact twice but received no response.
Had to put spare duvet on top of bed. The fact that this spare duvet was in the wardrobe perhaps indicates that the lack of heat is a continuing problem.
Internet was intermittent and difficult to get.
Towels very hard - suggest you take your own.”
“The welcome we received at the Dog and Partridge from David was excellent. We were quickly booked in and directed to our accommodation. A good feature was that our vehicles were able to be parked close to the room. The room was clean, well maintained and perfectly satisfactory. We had an evening meal in the restaurant which was served without undue delay and was adequate and nourishing. Local Alton beer, which was available at the bar went down a treat.
After a sound sleep, and shower we had...
“It was made perfectly clear that I'd be arriving after regular reception service.; post check-in. Was taken to the back entrance, with some spiel that my keycard would gain me access. No. No access point. So, I had to call the emergency number. Why give customers the spiel, when it's meaningless?
Otherwise, nice room, decent location.”
“Breakfast was good, our room, the Jane Austen was large and superbly done up. The bathroom was the best I’ve encountered in the UK. The Sunday Roast was delectable.”
“The Pilsley Inn is the quintessential English country side experience. The room was thoughtfully appointed and way bigger than expected. Cozy bed, nice linens and thoughtful touches everywhere. The staff were delightful, each and every one of them. And the food…omg, the food! So good! We wish we booked more than one night!”
