Plantation House Hotel

Great place to stay, friendly staff

This place is amazing. It’s been our go to place for New Year’s Eve for years. We also try do visit during the year. The food is out of this world. The chef is brilliant. Well done Richard The staff make you so welcome nothing is too much trouble. Accommodation is excellent. Sleeping is a dream

Attention to detail was excellent. Food in the restaurant also excellent. Breakfast was presented well and cooked beautifully. Service was also superb. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back.

My wife and I booked a table for evening dining last week. We used to live the in the village around 10 years ago but never got around to dining here. We now live nearly an hours drive away but decided to take the trip anyway as we love our good food. My wife made the booking via email which was as simple as agreeing a time and informing of how many people for. It’s a lovely building tucked back off of the main road, parking was a little tricky as spaces are limited and shared between diners and people staying. The staff on arrival were great and explained that the lounge was full as asked if we would mind going straight to our table, which wasn’t a problem. We were there for 3 courses but received some tasty nibbles when we sat down and a lovely taster to start. The chef clearly knows their food. The only issue we had was when we came to order. The main section on the menu had no vegetarian option at all. This is very strange and something I’ve never seen lacking on any menu. When the waitress, a lady we hadn’t seen already that evening, came to our table to take our order, we asked what the veggie option was. We were met with a confused look and was informed that any dietary requirements should have been made clear when making our booked. We informed the waitress that this was not made clear to us when booking and that being vegetarian is not a dietary requirement. Also, written at the bottom of the menu it said, “please let your waitress know of any dietary requirements”, so clearly this could be made known at the time. It was very unprofessional to blame the customer for this, but I will give the waitress the benefit of the doubt because she did do her best to see what alternative she could arrange for my wife. The dish my wife received in the end, although a plate of sides, was very tasty and was like a plater. Again, the chef clearly knows their food. It’s a real shame that a veggie option is not always on the menu as the food was really good, and for this reason we sadly won’t be returning. I would however, encourage anyone who eats meat and fish to try this place for food at it was lovely and good value.

A warm welcome from Richard on arrival followed by a slice of home made cake , a real nice touch, the double room we stayed in was very comfortable and well equipped. The staff are a credit to the hotel and cannot do to much for you and make you very welcome at all times. We have saved the food until last as this was definitely our highlight due to the high end quality , we both loved it

Best hotel by far, has a colonial feel, personal service was excellent. Although an excellent evening meal 3 courses for £46 may be a surprise.

Recommended by a friend who lives locally. Very warm professional welcome on arrival. Called before we arrived to see if we wanted to book for dinner. We had Room 26 at the top which was massive! It was very clean, very comfortable, warm, nice blend of modern with character and some great in room touches (tea, coffee, bottled water in reusable water bottle, fruit and some biscuits and flapjacks too!) Kettle, TV and stereo. I professionally environmentally audit accommodation, so I spotted a couple of very minor maintenance issues and improvements (e.g. bathroom got very steamy due to extractor fan grate needing cleaning!) which the owners took as feedback with great grace to improve with housekeeping for the next guests. The breakfast was truly amazing, freshly cooked and extremely tasty; with a comfortable and welcoming dining room. You choose the night before by ticking on a menu. Car parking was plentiful. Would we stay again? Without hesitation, and so should you too if you’re in the area! Well done to the Plantation House team, I hope it’s a great year for you all.

From the moment I walked in, I was made to feel special. Very comfortable food, excellent Broadband, some really nice touches, fresh milk, fresh fruit in room etc. I received a call in the day asking if I wanted to eat at the hotel, I had reservations spending £49 on a meal, but it was worth it. The food is of an excellent standard, breakfast just as good and would highly recommend. Next time I’m back in the area, I will come back.

The food and service are excellent. You have a choice of very high standard food
