The Gardeners Cottage Reviews

Richard

Beautiful cottage. Didnt realise it was in hotel grounds when booked it which gave us access to hotel facilities as well. Grounds were Emma late and well maintained. We took our dog with us and there were treats water bowl and bed for her which was cute The cottage was really clean and comfortable, the hitting was brilliant and used every day. We had a maintenance issue that was dealt with almost immediately. Hotel and bar staff were polite and courteous especially Thomas who normally does weddings but was in the bar on the night we went for food. Would definitely book again

Elaine

Lovely cottage, just a couple of small complaints. We were a group of 6 1. There were some shortages with the cutlery and crockery, luckily the hotel staff resolved the issue. 2. There was also just a small round table and only 4 chairs in the garden, again the hotel came to the rescue with an additional small table and 2 chairs, although a larger garden table to seat 6 would have been nice allowing for outdoor dining. 3 No sunshade for hot weather which it was 4. Garden front and rear of property needed some TLC 5. There is also no wardrobehanging space or storage in the annex bedroom. bedroom.

Unfortunately , despite the comments from the hotel responding to the Jan 2024 review we found all the same issues with the cottage overall was dirty and with black mould around all bathroom and bedroom windows, poorly equipped kitchen, dirty upholstery and floors insecure garden plus no standard live TV channels and a utility roomarea we would never choose to use. We raised our issues with Barry Tehrani the Operations Manager, he had believed that the January issues had been sorted but clearly they had not. He was most apologetic and has assured us that he will personally ensure that all issues will be rectified which we trust he will do. The gardens of the hotel are immaculate and hotel and staff lovely. Sadly our stay was spoiled by the issues we encountered so hopefully the substantial refurbishment that is required will be carried out promptly and a new cleaning regime and checking process brought in.

Hotel were very supportive and addressed any concerns we had at the property. Overall very good, garden now fenced off and completely enclosed.
