The Maynard

Food was excellent, well prepared, tasty and good value in today's market. Friendly, efficient service from Ben and others. Lovely setting overlooking the hills and valleys.

The hotel was lovely. The building was beautiful, the decor was awesome the food was fantastic (breakfast sausages and croissants were absolutely lovely) the bed was harder than I like but still decently comfy. They very kindly upgraded my room which was a nice surprise when I checked in. Room was pretty ( my parents room was nicer than mine decor wise but still pretty) They had parking which is a big plus. Very nice stay

Stayed at this hotel for one night to attend a friends wedding with my partner. We were allocated a room above the ballroom (more about that later), which we can honestly say, whilst nicely kitted out, was the smallest double we have ever stayed in. With the bed, side tables and small wardrobe in place there was virtually no floor space, with someone also deciding to try to fit in an on-suite into a room that was clearly not big enough to have one in. Not value for money. The wedding breakfast itself was basic, very nice, with good portion sizes, however, the staff serving the breakfast were all dressed in different clothes, none matching, and one even had a scruffy pair of jeans on. Did not look good, and did not give the impression of high end. Drinks at the bar were as expected, expensive. Back to our room, upon retiring from the wedding, we found we were able to lie in bed (which was comfortable) and still signalong to the wedding disco, not something we wanted, and hence we got little sleep (lucky this was for only one night). At one stage we nearly got up and danced, but the room was not big enough 😂 Whilst the wedding breakfast was as stated really nice, the same could not be said for the breakfast, with slow service and warm food at best. Hotel has small car park and plenty of on road parking. Lovely location, to which we hope to return to, but will be looking for alternative accommodation next time.
