Our Bowls club, 58 members enjoyed a delicious three course meal. Food was all served hot. Great choice of desserts. Plenty of parking. Reasonable price. We will definitely book again.
Stayed for a night, the room is small but perfect if you just need to sleep and shower. I usually struggle to sleep in hotels but this bed was really comfortable and I got a good night sleep.
Rooms were single beds which were surprise, but lovely. Only 1 towel. Automatic lights but turns off whilst showering. I liked the rooms, but no temperature control or fan. The walls are also thin so you can hear people in the corridor and opening closing doors. Food here was AMAZING, service was brilliant too! Facilities were great. Location is a little far out for public transport... by driving this can be perfect. Location is within Lickey Hills Country Park, full of nature, history, and walking trails with great viewpoints in several locations.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable bedroom. Well placed for walking in Lickey Hills.
Rooms are way too hot with no heating on. Windows restricted so unable to cool down. Small functional corporate rooms nothing special. Lovely staff and excellent food.
Very clean and well maintained. No frills, comfy beds. Good parking. Breakfast is up there with the best of them. Evening menu is lacking in choice if staying for more than a couple of nights. Definitely will return when working in the area. Great value.
The rooms are quite good, but the beds are single, small single to be exact. Wi-Fi doesn't seem to work properly. All staff goes above and behind to hell and are all very friendly. The location is amazing and the food seved is really good; 5 star for the food too. I am sure I will return.
We held our Club annual dinner here for the second year running - Both the service and three course dinner were excellent and reasonably priced - Held in the attractive dining room with pre/post dinner drinks in the spacious and comfortable bar area. All the staff are very friendly and professional - particular shout out for the lovely Jayne, the events manager, who efficiently looked after us from start to finish, where nothing was too much trouble. We will be booking again for next year! We also stayed overnight - our hotel room was pleasant and very clean, with lovely views and everything you need, a decent bathroom and hot/powerful shower - the bed was really comfortable. Breakfast, included, was plentiful and top notch.
