    We had a peaceful stay for a one night visit.

    Staff were all very courteous and helpful, rooms very clean and spacious. Lovely gardens and views across the countryside. Very close to Newbury racecourse which is 15 minutes in a taxi

    Menu choices for evening meals could have been wider. Pool quite small

    The location is beautiful

    Hotel was overrun with commercial guests despite me being assured I would find peace and tranquility in which to work when I booked. Dining room was jammed and noisy so I ate in my room both nights. My room overlooked the bar and the park, and noisy commercial guests were outside the bar until way after midnight both nights. An 'It's a knockout' style team bonding competition took place on my second day...complete with microphones and giant bouncy castles...and the accompanying shouting and screaming... Was right under my other window... So I would say definitely not the best hotel experience i've had. But the staff and the food were great!

    Actually everything was second to none, my next choice again in Newbury. The food was fabulous - a great selection of options. The hotel was set in a remote area near local pubs which had better menu choice and easier on the wallet as well as woodlands where rooms are dated and need of modernisation.

    The setting is gorgeous and beautiful, next to public areas and the racecourse. Kintbury is 10 minutes' drive away, making it easily accessible.
