Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was truly delightful. The rooms were characterful, spacious, and beautifully furnished with stunning views overlooking the forest. The service from the friendly owners was welcoming and accommodating, even if not at 5-star standards. The location steeped in history was a perfect retreat, although the food and service could be improved. The dining experience, while tasty, had its hiccups in terms of timing and portion size. The facilities were top-notch, offering a pleasant stay overall.
My stay at the hotel was truly a mix of luxury and comfort. The rooms were opulent, extremely comfortable, and equipped with everything to make my visit memorable, offering a wonderful view over fields and the Welsh mountains. However, the absence of facilities to make a hot drink was a small inconvenience, and the room rates were on the expensive side.
The rooms are stunning and calming, but lacked atmosphere and bright lighting. The service was kind but slow at times. The location is fabulous, with some room for improvement in food and service quality. The dining experience was lovely, although delayed.
The hotel is a hidden gem, nestled in the heart of the village with spectacular private grounds. The rooms are luxurious and comfortable, offering stunning views over the fields and Welsh mountains. The service provided by the cheerful staff was exceptional, despite some minor setbacks. The location exudes a lovely country house feel, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The dining experience was a mix of delicious dishes but with some room for improvement. Overall, a charming stay with great potential.
The hotel, while retaining its traditional manor house features, remains modern with 5-star status. However, some room issues such as tight spaces and lack of bath amenities were notable, and the 24-hour room service fell short of expectations. The service included both warm and unwelcoming interactions, creating a mixed experience for guests, especially during wedding services. The location, with historical charm, lacked promptness expected for a 5-star establishment. The dining experience suffered from delays and average quality. Overall, the facilities maintained a decent standard.
