Our welcome to high force was great and staff were amazing. We came back to the hotel after a walk to low force, just after the service for food had ended, but it was no trouble to staff to offer to make a bowl of chips for us as the fryers were still on. We did find the bed slightly uncomfortable and under bed may need to be cleaned but other than that it was great. To have high force tickets and raby castle tickets included was also an added bonus. The breakfast in the morning was lovely with plenty of choice. We did find a swarm of wasps out the front of the property when we were eating breakfast and heard other guests mentioning the same. We would love to come back to the property and would recommend as such a lovely special place to stay. Thank you.

There is a reason this is a three star hotel. Despite some pleasant room decor and very helpful staff there are many things that let it down. Exterior is shoddy, rooms look over a busy road or a busy courtyard- both are noisy when windows are open in warm weather. Menu disappointing and limited - there was literally nothing that enticed me. There was also a lack of choice for vegan or even veggie options. Hoovering the bar and restaurant at 7:40am was so loud in our first floor room it may as well have been in our room - easily avoided and really annoying when you have come away to relax and get a much needed lie in. The garden which could and should have been a delightful asset was overgrown and depressing. This hotel is clearly trying to punch above its weight but it just isn’t quite getting there - in my opinion. That said the staff were great and the bed very comfortable both of which do go a long way to an enjoyable stay.

Excellent accommodation a great place to stay. All staff were very friendly and personable. Couldn't do enough for you. I am Gluten Free and that was extremely well catered for. Something different off menu every night and excellent English Breakfasts and GF Corn Flakes. Couldn't ask for any better GF accommodation . Ideal location if you like the out doors and walking
