I’ve now stayed here twice, both times lovely rooms, clean warm and very comfortable. Food was good and the staff friendly and helpful. Parts of the hotel need some work and look a little frayed but I’m sure these will be addressed.

The room was comfortable and had everything we needed. The breakfast was in the covered courtyard which was a bit cool first thing in the morning. This meant that the food was not as hot as it should have been. We ate in the restaurant the evening before and it was fine. The car park is at the back of the hotel and accessed via the local supermarket car park, which is worth knowing. The location is excellent for visiting the lovely town of Olney, just on the market square.

The room was lovely and the staff very nice. I needed gluten free options and the staff were helpful despite the link to the website on dietary needs being broken. The breakfast was freshly cooked to order so this did mean there was a wait for this.

Contacted hotel 3 times with no response to check the room had a bath, so called and had it confirmed the room did have a bath. Arrived to find no bath, duty manager was unable to resolve as hotel was fully booked. Asked to see my booking and where it listed the bath, I struggled to pull it up as the WiFi is pretty bad, I collected the evidence whilst out at dinner elsewhere and advised him I had it ready for him to review however he never did come and check it out to get it corrected. We’ve stayed several times and it’s great value for money, however I was very disappointed with the fact the rook listed a bath that wasn’t actually there. As a single mum of 2, with very little rest and relaxation I was specially looking forward to this: would I stay a third time, absolutely but I would call and call again till I was sure the room had a bath 😊
