We really appreciated the lovely ambience of the bar and dining room. The staff were lovely and very friendly. We had a family meal, 7 very picky adults and all their tastes were accomadated. Food very good, hot and served promptly . They have a very good selection of gin. Over the past 17 years we have stayed in about a dozen locations around Milton Keynes and this was the best!
We went for Christmas shopping so had 3 nights. On arrival we was given a room in the annex which sadly did not meet our expectations and spoke to reception who allocated us another room which was so much better and we very much appreciated it Housekeeping need to pay a bit more attention to detail when it comes to dusting especially behind furniture and windows but overall it was clean especially the bathroom Breakfast and dinner in the evening were presented beautifully and tasted delicious. A very good choice and service, beautiful room to eat in and so much to take in Staff were so very helpful and nothing was too much Hotel needs a bit of cosmetic work but it is a hotel with a history and character and we had a thoroughly enjoyable experience and would not hesitate to stay again and will recommend it
We had booked 2 tables of 10 for a family members 90th birthday. The service was brilliant, the ladies serving food for the group and serving beverages on the bar were wonderful and the prices were decent. When receiving the food the appearance was good. However, the ‘fresh’ vegetables were probably a bit too fresh, cold, raw and not steamed. This could have been intentional but personally the guests of the gathering would have enjoyed it more if the veggies were steamed. All in all, good place to hold a get together and family gatherings, 8/10 :)
We booked this for a 90th bday celebration and the staff were very efficient, obliging and contributed a lot to the success. Catering really good. We stayed over night and whilst decor and the quirkiness of an old listed coaching inn might deter someone used to high end accommodation, the room was spacious, very clean and bed very comfortable. Price per room inclusive of a high quality breakfast is very very reasonable. Would highly recommend.
We booked a room for our wedding night and was quoted £135, they took are bank details and confirmed it was booked. We then received a call a few days later saying that we had to book for a minimum of 2 nights that weekend but as its our wedding night they will allow us to have one night at over £200!!! Fair to say we are now looking elsewhere. Disgusting
