"Staff were friendly, we were upgraded to a lake view room too! Breakfast was delish!"

"Loved the amazing views from the grounds and also our bedroom. Would have liked our teas/coffee to be served to our table at breakfast"

"Great hotel and nice location. Our room had lovely views over the gardens and lake. The decor in the lounge areas was fab. Good dinner and breakfast menu. Friendly staff. "

"Staff went above and beyond especially considering I’d arrived a day early ! The manager and reception staff went out of their way to resolve the situation. Restaurant excellent, would recommend."

"We had an excellent stay at the Cranleigh recently. The room was very comfortable and the staff were very helpful. We had to park around the back of the hotel which wasn’t the best for getting out of, but all in all we had a fantastic stay in a great location."

"The guest house was in a great location. Parking isn’t great as one space can’t be utilised due to the garage and only one car looked like it could get in due to the spaces in front. The room itself was very clean and nicely decorated, as was the bathroom. We never seen any staff around. We got stocked up of tea and coffee but they left the dirty mugs which I would have expected clean ones. The bin was also emptied but our empty pizza boxes were left under the bin where I put them hoping they would be taken away. I also thought clean towels each day would have been nice."

"Perfect location Very helpful staff Room excellent for my husband plenty of grab rails in bathroom We will be returning very soon Highly recommend "

"Clean room (although there were cobwebs around light and ceiling). The picture on the website showed a much nicer and larger room, therefore, we were very disappointed with such a small room that was three flight of stairs up and no lift - my husband struggled with this (due to his knee operation). The owners were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good. Parking was restricted as you had to find your own space on the road or at the time we were there, there were a few spaces to use, in the car park belonging to some flats next door. The pool was the biggest disappointment - as this was actually based at the MacDonalds hotel (in the town about 10/15 min walk away) and when we got to the B&B we were told the normal procedure is to book a day in advance! We got to the MacDonald hotel, but we were unable to park there (£25 parking fee) so went to look for somewhere else to park. By the time we managed to get somewhere we were running out of time to be able to swim and get to the next activity we had booked. Also, given that the hotel receptionist was dismissive and unwelcoming - we decided to give it a miss! This was such a disappointment as the main reason for booking this B&B was the advantage of being able to go for a swim! Overall, the whole experience of staying at this B&B was disappointing. "

"The room was lovely, very clean with a view over the town towards the lake and mountains. The staff were very helpful, I needed two singles not a double and they immediately sorted this. Breakfast was very good ....and generous. The hotel is in an excellent position for the town and lake and has the bonus of parking."
