Amazing hotel and amazing rooms

副樓是比較新的住宿樓，有點像國內的民宿，很温馨，房間比較小，但不影響入住，老的接待處有餐廳，生意很棒，吃晚餐的地方和早餐的地方都非常温馨舒適，早餐也不錯，該有的都有了，這是比較小眾的鎮子，這家住宿連帶着吃飯不錯的選擇！

Just popped in for a drink with view to booking for dinner tomorrow,after tonight's experience we won't bother.2 members of staff sat in a corner eating food bad mouthing fellow staff so loudly the we could hear every word.Another member of staff with his shirt hanging out turns up and starts eating until we are there.we promptly finish our drinks to find the same man in another part of the bar still munching away.he tried to say goodbye,difficult with a mouth and hand full og yorkshires

We went for a quick, quiet drink today. The Barman deliberately hid the total of the price of the drinks, until we actually paid the bill. £13.25 for a glass of wine! Total joke. Not everyone is mega rich! Maybe be honest next time? Rip off merchants!

Went to meet family for celebration meal, we commented on arrival how quiet the hotel was. Having waited at our booked table for about 10 minutes to place a drinks order we gave up and ordered ourselves at the bar, the lack of a wine menu gave us a shock when the bill came. Food ordered we eagerly awaited its arrival. 2 meals were very disappointing, the chicken ballotine clearly re heated and slightly rubbery in texture, served with potato and very al dente broccoli a very meagre portion as was the trout a tiny portion of fish! We ordered 2 desserts , sticky toffee pudding which my son eagerly ate until he bit into something very hard which we think was date stone, the other a very limp lemon tart clearly having been left out of the fridge too long. We spoke to the waitress who barely acknowledged our observations. All in all a disappointing meal, a stark contrast to our favourite local owned by the chestnut group The Old Bridge at Huntingdon.

I ordered trout and my wife lamb. Both were cooked beautifully. However they were paired with stuff that didn’t go with them - the lamb with some mayonnaisy cous cous, and the trout with a strange salad with a strong dressing that overshadowed the delicate flavour of the trout. On paper it looked interesting enough but what could and should have been two successful dishes, ended up being unsatisfactory.

Stayed at hotel for a family wedding for 5 nights evening meal was poor uncooked chips and greasy all batter fish after second night ate out each night Room was expensive £200 plus and needed a complete redecoration , no safe and no fridge with milk provided going off so had to keep going to reception for fresh milk Breakfast was buffet style and was second rate with limited choice as some items ie black pudding not available on subsequent days. Final straw was on check out as we were the last to leave was asked to pay other people’s unpaid room bills !!?

Having visited many other properties in the Chestnut Group and always had a very good experience I was looking forward to trying one of the more recent acquisitions for lunch with a friend and 3 small dogs. We arrived and were seated in an otherwise empty section of the restaurant so they were not busy. It took an age to be served only to be asked what we'd like to order food wise but we hadn't even been asked for our drinks order. The food arrived, which was delicious, we both had the Sea Bream. When our plates were cleared we asked for the dessert menu but half an hour later had not arrived so we went to the till to pay, not leaving a tip which is something I have never done in other of the groups properties. We were served by 3 different members of staff so there didn't seem to be any consistency in service and the young man who we had asked for the dessert menu and who took our payment almost fobbed us off by explaining how he was "absolutely rushed off his feet". While we were paying another customer had to come us to the till area to place their order! Thoroughly disappointed and not up to the groups normal service. Hope the Maltings when it opens will be more professionally run.

Popped into the bar for a drink and some food. Good bar atmosphere, very friendly staff but the fish and chips were terrible based on my 70 plus years experience of eating this dish - overcooked, dry and a small portion by normal pub standards.
