Very old hotel that looks shabby in all honesty. If the vibe is meant to be that of an abandoned Premier Inn then it does the job perfectly! Also a lot of noise from the football pitches outside, though it didn't go on too late. On the upside, it was clean and the staff were friendly, plus it was warm in the room (which was required for winter!). Plenty of tea/coffee to be had and it is a nice location with walks and scenic views. 2 pubs nearby as well.

A home from home, fantastic staff, great view over the lake and the restaurant below the rooms. Parking is a little expensive for 11 nights it was £108.00, if you can look beyond the parking costs this is one of the best hotels i have stayed in around Milton Keynes.
