Great place, great atmosphere and accommodation and food was excellent. The evening meal beside a blazing fire just perfect. Breakfast and service excellent. Staff could not do enough to make our stay a wonderful one. Close to the forge if you want to do a day there, merry Christmas and a happy new year to everyone. Sarah and Raymond.
Had a beautiful weekend stay at this fabulous Inn. Rooms were comfortable, clean and extremely comfy! Everyone and I mean everyone, we're so friendly, welcoming and accommodating, including staff and locals! We stayed 2 nights and my Gluten Free diet was catered for, food was lovely and breakfast was yummy! Part of our trip was to do a black smithing work shop at Old field Forge which was near to the Inn and well worth doing! We will be back!
Unfortunately this was a rather disappointing stay. When looking at the reviews we were looking forward to a couple of relaxing nights away with great service but this was not what we experienced. Upon coming into the room, we stayed in the sun room, there was clearly a draft coming from the window and upon closer inspection there was a gap all the way round the right window which we plugged with loo roll to lessen the draft. The water in the bathroom is scalding hot, with no signs to say so. The sink in the bathroom you had to run for about 20-30 seconds for the water to cool down (with the tap tuned to cold) and I ran a bath and waited an hour to get in for it to be a bearable temperature. The service was okay but definitely seemed like the bare minimum, asking us about how our food was definitely seemed like a forgotten after thought. The food itself was okay, although in any other situation we wouldn't pay that price for it. Finally upon checking out there was no one there for us to speak to about any of the issues we had and weren't even asked by the chef we handed the keys to if we had a nice stay. Overall a poor experience, especially when woken up at 12.30am on a Tuesday night by the very loud patrons of the pub below!
Nice inn to stay and sleep. We went for one night and we are happy in an overview. The service and staff were really helpful and friendly. The chef cooked breakfast all what you wanted at the moment. The rooms are nice and comfortable. Only thing is that you can listen outside from your room as the walls are not soundproofed. They let us stay working there during the morning even though the check out was before do they are really helpful.
My wife and I stayed here over the weekend in early August 23. We stayed in "The Globe" apartment which as spacious, well laid out and well looked after. Every where was cleaned to high standard and the bathroom was gleaming. The level of service from the staff upon arrival was exceptional and when dining the staff went out of their way to make sure our needs were taken care off. The food was fantastic! A simple and inclusive menu backed by an astounding calibre of preparation and taste! An absolutely phenomenal venue and I cannot recommend staying here enough. (Especially if you are taking part in a course at the Oldfield Forge.)
