Hotel is quite dated but good for night’s stay. Lake and surroundings are very lovely (didn’t get the time to look around properly). Bed is comfortable and staff are professional. In terms of amenities, there isn’t really any. I did see they had spa facilities? But can’t comment on that. Overall average.

Great location, lovely walk around the lake and nearby woodlands. Staff are friendly and service is good. Rooms are outdated and could do with a lot of modernisation, unfortunately, is not even on par with some travelodges. Walls are hollow so can hear noise and voices from neighbouring rooms. Rooms are not sparkling clean, you will get what is expected of a 3 star hotel. Breakfast is just ok. Overall, if you’re looking for a stopover for the night and want to wake up to beautiful views then definitely book a room with a view and not the standard room which may end up overlooking the A2. We did however, book a lakeside room that was allocated on the second floor and the view was very nice indeed.

Good hotel for the piece. Could be cleaner and service from staff could be better. Cannot complain for the price though. Also had a nice lakeside view. Would stay again :)

Great location to Cyclopark being only a short drive away - hotel is a bit dated but is clean and rooms are comfy and spacious - breakfast wasn’t brilliant with choices and freedom to have croissants etc - cooked breakfast was ok though - it is a budget hotel though - lovely quiet area and great views over the lake - friendly staff.

You pay for what you get they say. Cons :- Rooms very dated and dirty in places. Stained chair, net curtains dirty with holes and hanging off one end, light switch plates dirt, window frames dirty. Bed hard and uncomfortable, I had a single bed but it had an heavy ‘double’ duvet that touched the floor when untucked, made it even more uncomfortable and awkward getting in and out of. Roadside rooms too noisy to have window open, but the ceiling fan is as outdated and useless as a chocolate teapot. Old enamel bath with chips out of, stained shower curtain, shower fell off the wall. Pros:- staff very nice, lake was beautiful, breakfast good. Bedroom was large, had a hairdryer and tea/coffee facilities. Would I stay here again - sorry no.

The decor was dated as other reviews mentioned but the room was clean and spacious, shower pressure was very weak though. Food was lovely, reasonably priced including drinks, and different eating areas inside and out. It was a very peaceful and relaxing place which is what we wanted. Disappointed we couldn’t stroll around the lake (it’s private land beyond the jetty) but enjoyed watching the big fish jumping out of the water and the entertaining bird life. You can enter the wonderful woods of Shorne Country Park from just outside the car park. Wasn’t able to book any treatments which was a real shame, as were was told nothing available when emailed in the week before our overnight stay. Overall had a very enjoyable stay, having been somewhat sceptical due to reading some quite dreadful online reviews.
