Little Gem with special Hosts

I had a brilliant stay at Hunters moon, Dean and his wife made me welcome as soon as I Came through the door. The Atmosphere was amazing and Dean was a real gentleman who was always looking out for me he was accommodating and always made sure I had all I needed. All the staff and residents made you feel like you had been there for years. They address me by name and ensured I received everything I requested. Thanks Dean for being a true professional Host and to all your staff, food was amazing and well priced, I can’t thank you enough for the hospitality you provided.

Not great!

Unfortunately I was made to feel uncomfortable with confusion over the booking, the young lady was slightly abrasive and spoke very loudly regarding the mix up of my booking. The key was shoved at me and I asked where to go, fortunately another member or staff stepped in and took me to my room. I had to ask for the breakfast menu which I have to say was pretty limited and not very clear that there would be cereal on offer in addition. The outside was tatty, simple things like sweeping up the leaves would have made it feel clean. My bed was so soft and uncomfortable, dripping tap, something on the floor which looked like …… I won’t even say!! I definitely wouldn’t stay here again. Not good value for the price I paid. I will say that the gentleman that served breakfast was extremely friendly as was the other young staff member that showed me to my room….. the lady who served me behind the bar could do with some training on how to make a guest feel more welcome.

Lovely place to stay!

Booked this as a short break away. Easy to book, quick confirmation. Good price. Received email allowing us to check in, as we wanted to arrive earlier, they arranged for key to be available for us. Room very comfortable, heating on for our arrival. Comfortable bed, tv, tea and coffee making facilities. Clean bathroom with shower. We booked a table for dinner in the restaurant, received a friendly warm welcome, nice staff. Great food and drink selection, reasonable prices. Breakfast was included, arranged what we wanted and what time the previous evening then just turn up at arranged time. Great service from Dean, a really friendly guy. Ate in the restaurant again on 2nd night as we were really impressed. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hunters Moon and would highly recommend either a stay there or just going for a meal if you are in the area.

Great service and food. However, the 3 star hygiene rating was a shock. It's a old venue, but the water pressure was really terrible.
