Hotel in general had a cosy feel about it and the staff were delightful. We didn't like the new extension (looked cheap) and spoilt the overall ambience. We initially checked into room 10 which was dark and cold and adjacent to a staff thoroughfare and kitchen. We were moved to room 7 which was far better but unfortunately, the bathroom had a nasty odour from the drains. Also, the bathroom door handle was faulty and my husband got locked in there temporarily. We reported this to the manager and she said she would look into it.

Disappointed at the Wheatsheaf

Perhaps my expectations are unreasonable, but when I asked if there was an elevator to the room, the person that checked us in explained that in hotel as old as the Wheatsheaf, that was not possible. Ok then, I wrongly assumed that someone younger than us (I’m 68 and my husband is 73) would give us a hand with our bags. We’re both in very good shape and quite capable, but just out of a sense of good hospitality, that would be offered. It was entirely up to us to get our bags to the last room on the 2nd floor. We tried breakfast the next morning as the dinner the night before was ok. I asked for soft boiled eggs and while not on the menu, I didn’t think I’d have to be worried about what I’d get. They brought out 2 super hot unpeeled eggs and the eggs were completely hard and cooked through when I athe the And the server never came back to see if everything was ok. The bed was comfortable enough, the room was supposed to be rustically quaint, and the plumbing was modern. However, the shower stall was so small and the shower head so large that there was no where to stay out of the spray to lather up. There was a very deep claw footed bath tub with a handheld sprayer, but no way to really keep the spray from straying outside of the tub when you washed your hair. And the tub was so deep, it was difficult to get into and out of. We felt so unwelcome in the Wheatsheaf, that we left a day early. I definitely did not find it romantic, charming or welcoming.

We returned to The Wheatsheaf for a night stay for my birthday after 8 years. The food and service is still very good and we have fond memories of coming here. However, we were put into room 2 which is the top of the stairs, right next to the store cupboard and were constantly disturbed with stomping and loud noise from staff getting stock. This was especially noisy in the morning when we’re trying to sleep. Considering they were not fully booked, it would have been nice if we had been put at the other end of the corridor away from there. The window in the room is also and old wooden single glazed sash window which allows all the road noise and voices in. Needless to say, we didn’t sleep well. We would return but only for the restaurant and a drink. I would stay elsewhere next time.

Staff were extremely helpful and polite. Food was very nice. Room was comfortable with a well stocked mini bar. However my advice would be don't stop in room 15. However pleasant looking, The kitchen Aircon stays on till 10pm and comes on again around 7am making it very difficult to relax or get a good night's sleep. slept 1 night out of 4.
