We were so looking forward to staying at the hotel on our route doing The Cotswold Way. It was a bit off track but we were prepared to walk the extra couple of miles to get the experience here. It’s a grand place though the deco could do with updating. The grounds are lovely, the nearby church is impressive. Our room was ok, clean enough, hotel is a bit quirky to get around. We were dining with friends and looking forward to this. There didn’t seem much choice for non meat eaters on the menu. Took ages to get served, and then 2of the 4 starters came, a fair wait before one of the waiters spotted part of our order was missing and quickly brought the rest out. There was a long wait between starters and mains. Staff clearly seemed to be struggling that evening, it was a weekday and seemed fairly busy. I had asked whether I could have fries instead of the potato croquets as these were wrapped with bacon and I didn’t eat meat. The waiter agreed, however I subsequently noticed I had got charged for the fries separately when I had asked to have instead of. The meal was at best average. However the continental breakfast was nice and had a good selection. Staff were attentive and polite. We came away thinking the place is overrated.
