I last visited this hotel around 5-6 years ago, and stayed in the same room. The only thing changed was the heater , which now runs via WiFi and emits a blue light all night. Room tired , scratches on furniture, badly creaking bed and windows with some mould. Bath mat on arrival had what looked like urine stain on it, but was changed on 2nd day. Adequate shower . Had a two course meal which was very tasty and good value. Faultless restaurant service. Excellent Irish coffee made in the bar. New manager seemed to be getting staff’s backs up , and disagreements were witnessed. Right on the edge of Rutland water, a must for bird / nature lovers.
